  1. To pay the debt ceiling limit I think every Government employee should not get a salary for 1 year. Live off your Savings.

  2. NBC…THE STATION OF DISINFORMATION…They have been proven liars.

  3. TSA not getting paid already has a worker shortage

  4. Republican have the power to end this bs by ousting macarthy

  5. I WONDER IF THOSE MAGA GENIUSES WILL TRY TO SNEAK IN A MASSIVE TAX BREAK FOR THAT 1% TO GIVE THEM MORE BILLIONS??!!

  6. Let Kevin McChicken, BoeButt, Matt Get-Sum & Marginalize Greene default US. All will be infamous & OUT. Anti-government Congress Cons love to shut US. Infamy McChicken in history

  7. Why is mrs harris for? Give her legal brain to solve debt limit fiasco.old brain of Mr Biden unable to break the ice.

  8. The Republican'ts are holding all our livelihoods hostage for the sake of giving their billionaire donors a big, fat tax break. The media should be portraying them like the political terrorists that they are. I will never vote for any Republican ever again.

  9. Yeah I remember when before Joe went on that trip ,them saying he wouldn't cut it short, to negotiate but yet they did ,liars,weak liars,just pointing out another biden lie,

  10. God forbid congress work through the holiday like real citizens of the US.

  11. The conservative Supreme Court screwing the environment and the American people's health for the rich.
    This politically conservative SCOTUS, and thus the rich, are using selfish people that have to have their house to tear down environmental protections.
    More mines, more oil drilling more housing developments, more golf courses more refineries more factories more money for them and less quality of land, air and life for Americans.

  12. let me guess, fake republicans want to move in their early 90s in the middle of dessert condo without running water, fill a toilet bowl of poop punch a hole in the wall, fill then repeat, by tanking the debt ceiling

  13. Make the handicapped and elderly work what jerks

  14. What is meant to say was as long as the rich does not have to pay their share for the corporation in the working class and poor have to pay for it all then republicans are four it

  15. The next time there is a Republican President the Democrats need to get pay back and lobby for tax increases! This is a game that two can play !

  16. HOW MANY BILLIONS DID THE DEPT OF DEFENSE LOSE TRACK OF????? HYPOCRITES n Liars

  17. My mother depends on my late father's veteran check for her income. If she loses it bc of this it'll be devastating

  18. Water: Comes from the sky, falls on my roof and goes into my water tank. The gov. has no control over the rain. CLEAN, CLEAR, ABUNDANT and FREE
    THINK about it? Yeah I did.

  19. Gas: $4.51 Hilo, Hawaii Doesn't matter. It's equals out because we paying nothing for parking, water or heating.

  20. Work requirements! If people could work, they would. Just because they haven’t been able to navigate the unmanageable and unnecessarily hostile process of being declared disabled, doesn’t mean they are able-bodied or mentally and emotionally capable of working!!! The most vulnerable and fragile among us could never get through that system. Besides, those so-called entitlement programs are not breaking the bank. It’s more the careless spending in other areas of government. I’ve worked for government agencies and know how much money they waste.

  21. Do republican politicians lose their check too?

  22. Gas is 2.97 in Nashville..

  23. Kevin is the human equivalent of a gum eraser

  24. So STOP supporting every other country and take care of US Citizens!! We keep paying for politicians giving OUR money away and then they up our taxes to pay for their spending!! STOP SPENDING OUR MONEY!!

  25. Its not u.s. its trumps debt and republicans McCarthy is scum

  26. Republicans disagree because they back treason and the regular worker, and those lower income individuals are expected to foot the Bill. That what I'm seeing.

  27. if biden gives in them ,that will hurt the election for him

  28. Progress is being made on the debit ceiling raise so seniors will have their social security and Medicaid benefits will be cut and WHY is because the Dems have no BALLS.

  29. They need to stop reporting that Social Security checks will be delayed/ suspended, etc. This comes from a completely different fund, and is protected under an article of law. This fear mongering is elder abuse, and inflicts anxiety, depression, high blood pressure, etc. in those whose health is already fragile.

  30. Dear MyKevin…what about this? Trump increased the national debt by over 30%. This is the biggest debt increase in America's history. This included the huge tax break for the richest Americans as well.

  31. Republicans need to quit playing these dangerous games !

  32. 🕊🌟❤🌱😎💪BELOVED❤ PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN…THE BEST PRESIDENT IN THE WORLD❤ …🌟IS🌟… GOING TO WIN AGAIN💪😎🌳❤🌟🕊

  33. Let it fail nobody needs money or food to live where I live. We can make it without society but society can’t make it without us.

  34. All it seems to be is these politicians want to look good on the media and and their supporters and could care less about all the rest of Americans and of course how much money they can get in their campaign chest which they use now to go on vacation trips plus they make $200,000 a year for doing absolutely nothing but b** and and cry about the other side

  35. Okay if they're coming back Tuesday which is the 30th and Kevin McCarthy said they have 72 hours to read the Bell. How are they going to get this bill passed before June 1 2023

  36. Oh my what's gonna happen? Oh the rich will get richer the poor will get poorer.
    Winner take all Tournament species male hierarchy Selfish behavior . A***** will go home in a limousine and the rest of us will be 2 steps behind yesterday.
