If it is possible and time permits, I would like some feedback! Thank you!
Sorry people, I have an error in my first comment. If the 32 GOP representatives in the House were serious about the proposal put forth by the Problem Solver's, why did they vote with McCarthy in the first place?
If you want to solve this country's economic problems, here are 2 solutions; pass serious climate change reform and a serious, comprehensive immigration reform bill. This is where Progressives need to mobilize and take the lead!
It is difficult for me to be tactful with the crap that comes out of Congrass, but I will try. If the 32 GOP reps in the House were serious about this committee proposal put forth by the Problem Solvers, why did the vote with McCarthy in the first place???
republicans hate inflation so much, they are raising it
Tax the rich
I demanded my credit card company to raise my limit because I can’t pay my bills and I need to spend more money to keep up my lifestyle. They said I need to quit spending so much. They’re so stupid. I’m sure they’re maga republicans.
Democrats going to win the senate house presidency in 2024 Democrats blue wave coming ur way gop sucks
Brian you should stoop pretending that your god and start telling the truth
If this is so important, it should just be done with no strings attached. Call their bluff, let them tank our economy. I’m tired of having to bend over for their insane demands. They are the ones in control, if they want to tank our economy, that’s their decision.
We can't afford to default. But we REALLY can't afford to negotiate with MAGA terrorists (MAGAts).
Do not add anything to the debt bill just pass it
Democrats cannot cave in to these don't accept
Cutting veterans benefits by 22% is shameful.
Repeal all tax cuts back to Regan for anyone making $300,000/yr with exemptions for family farms.
Solution: tax the wealthy.
If the debt is raised, the wealthier will become even richer while the poor become poorer. The debt needs to be paid to prevent the USA from collapsing, and it is dangerous to be fooled by people who want to monopolize the economy. 👆
Maybe Democratic congress members need to start using easier to understand language. Talk about how the GOP is demanding we "stop paying our mortgage and credit card bills" unless we take current and future x, y, z supports for seniors, veterans and young adults and families. But are demanding we continue to give the billionaires a way to pay less than 5% of their income because of the money they HAVE TO SPEND on their yachts and jets etc. Regular people happens when we miss those mortgage, rent and credit card payments.
Democratic talking points are not making sense to many voters. So change the way you talk about things….please for the love all that is good in the world – change the way you talk about this issue!
“Voting to raise the debt ceiling is unpatriotic.” – Senator Obama (2008)
“Not voting to raise the debt ceiling is economic terrorism.” -President Obama
The left is bat s*** crazy!
Republicans. Will. Cut. Veterans. Benefits. And. They. Hate. Women. Miserabilis cultus. 🦨🐘
This issue will sit on the Senates Vote. If they disagree, it will be their's or Brandon's problem. Congress already passed a bill. That's how our Govt Works.
If I were China, why wouldn't I donate to radical right-wing extremists and encourage them to tank the economy? There's no accountability for where the money comes from, what does anyone have to lose? Why aren't we all assuming this is the explanation for what we have been seeing? Foreign nations are essentially purchasing small parts of the American government and using it to attack the other parts of it. Their overall goal is mostly to reduce the global power of the US, and the method is to cause voters to lose faith in American institutions by loudly and repeatedly asserting that they are corrupt, despite strong evidence to the contrary.
Business and government who don't pay down their own own debts but expect the poor and if they it's the or else but they should have to pay the debts or else for the wealthy people
Don't give in to trumps Coup GOP. Beans and potatos are still some what affordable.
When the House passes the Debt Limit they are agreeing to pay the previous political administration's debt. Listen, Trump ran up enough debt that it is literaly 25% of the full national debt. Republicans cost us too much money with their constant nonsense. Thank you Chuck.
