seriously I don't think the GOP will let the US go into default. I think they stand to lose more than Americans with all of the stock market and their rich donors.
The new Republican House Report shows that Joe Biden has not committed a single crime while in office. GOP really goofed up on that conspiracy theory trying to tie Joe Biden to crime.
Is it me or does McConnell look like hes about to keel over?
Tax the rich
Marna cadaalada kama maarmo dusha ayaan ku noolaan ama cadaalada hoosteeda hadaan caruurta wax ku filan laiihayn maxaa la iiqaada cadaslad
The republicans have made this habitual and annoying.. but the base eats it up
Crooks in suits
Investing in crypto now should be in every wise individuals list, in some months time you'll be ecstatic with the decision you made today..
I know "we will grow the economy," for the last 40 years in Republican speak means, make the billionaires wealthier.
Biden: “We should challenge students in these schools. We have this notion that somehow if you’re poor, you cannot do it. Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids.”
McCarthy- you are so full of sh– ! The Republicans have accomplished nothing.
MORE BULL — from a man who would destroy or economy. —
never negotiate with the conserva-terrorists
you cannot reward their bad behavior ..
they quickly learn to repeat it
More bs from McCarthy
Time for Mitch to retire da
Get it done
Every able American donate five, ten, or dollars to democracy, Adam Shiff, and McCarthy can go kick rocks.
These two hypocrites had no complaints when they voted and approved to raise the Debt ceiling three times during Trump's Presidency. They also voted and approved a massive 14% tax cuts to the wealthy millionaires and billionaires which raised the National Debt by $7.8 trillion. Where were their concerns then? That's how hypocritical the Republican party is. Biden should never have agreed to negotiate on the Debt ceiling.
McCarthy wants 30% pay increase for congress, so while he goes after the poor folks, he wants to take their $ from food stamps, etc and give themselves a pay raise. Voters needs to get them republicans voted out of office!!! McCarthy doesn't even care about his own constituents in his city, go look at the homeless ppl, he only cares about the millionaires and billionaires in his areas, the heck with everyone else!!!
We should definitely raise the debt ceiling until our national debt is so high that the US total GDP goes to pay for the interest. Then we can break down the system that does evil things like produce and distribute goods that are exchanged for currency. Then we can all be happy communists who starve like every other large scale attempt at communism has. LOOK IT UP THEY ALL FAIL
Kevin McCarthy-Kevin McCarthys commitment to america is to protect his 95 million dollars
theres a saying in Washington the way you can tell Kevin McCathy is lying his mouth is moving
Net Worth: $95 Million
Name: Kevin McCarthy
Salary: $312,000
Monthly Income: $1 Million

Profession: racist
According to the most recent data, 12% of seniors are trying to live on an income of less than $10,000 a year while 55% are trying to survive on less than $25,000 a year.
Is this why he has no interest in raising money on millionaires such as himself so it won’t effect his 95 million?
Do you think that Kevin McCarthy could live on a fixed income of 10 thousand dollars a year?
McCarthy received campaign donations from Saudi Arabia's lobbyists.He is the number one recipient of campaign contributions from Saudi lobbying firms in Congress.
Could this be why Kevin McCarthy has no interest in advocating for reform regarding gas prices?
An October 2018 investigation documented how William "Bill"Wages, of McCarthy's brother-in-law's company Vortex Construction, has received $7.6 million since 2000 in no-bid (bypassing the standard process of bidding) and other prime federal contracts. The work was mostly for construction projects at the Naval Air Weapons Station China Lake in McCarthy's Bakersfield-based district, and Naval Air Station Lemoore in California's Kings County.
Is this the definition of a conflict of interest?
Is this legal?
No more conversations with hostage takers!
Everything is a scam
Lol, able bodied individuals. While it's legal for the mentally ill to buy guns. Yeah that makes alot of sense. Discrimination and harassment for these folks is unacceptable. Kevin doesn't live in reality.
They cant wait to introduce the Fed card to you. So they can track all of your spending.
McCarthy needs to quit f**** around. 🧐
These politicians make me sick they always talk about these poverty programs it just makes people poor then that was before folks don't have anything to fall back on this two classes of people poor and Rich that crap about working hard and bootstraps that's crap folks get rich living off a family members worth centuries ago yeah you work hard but now it's a joke taxes so high you can't afford to live anywhere that's right I said it don't hate
They have only themselves to blame for delays. If they were employees in a company, they would be let go.
Biden is just the puppet
