Ken Buck is an extremist nut job but at least he is fairly civil and a little more honest than most of the others on the far right.
Why don’t you repeal Trump’s horrible tax breaks for the wealthy, make those earning $400,000 and up and corporations pay their fair share and remove tax loopholes, and remove caps on Social Security would definitely be steps in the right direction ASAP
cant fix it if you dont let it break default default default default its going to happen sooner or latter mite as well deal with it now instead of our grand kids having to
The Nation needs to default if these parties cannot work together and all those old people need to retire and let the young take control.
She's bottle-necking/forcing him to talk about his OPINION. Opinion is not news. This video is falsy named as "news".
Facts > opinions
She tried hard for a "got ya " moment but Sen. Buck has more class.
This guy have no confirmed information and speaks as if it were truth. I will get rid of this guy if he is an employee of mine.
We need another tax cut for the rich they will get us out of this!
It's because they only want the people to suffer, left and right as long as the rich don't. After all that is there base . Not the middle class or poor.! It's been that way ever since reagan.
Vote No! Stop selling us out!
Why does MSM thank them for taking the time to explain their position? Politicians work for the people. They should be required to go on PBS once a month during their congressional sessions in their local area and explain their positions. Not these 4-minute sound bites to look good.
Republicans are so corrupt
Because we don’t need four more trillion dollars added to the deficit
The treasure secretary is Lying
Joe biden knows that is his going to lose.that he well not run Americans united States any more. So dont vote for this debate celling.think about this if Americans do their well be 8 millions dollars well go in his pockets.and as a Americans we well lose.and don't for Mccarthy an his pockets.
I love how Ken Buck says we can't spend money now, yet his party and the president spent three trillion dollars between 2016 and 2020 and they were totally fine with that. And they gave tax cuts to the 1%. I'm so tired of making the rich even richer. I'm so tired of trickle down economics thinking it will surely work THIS TIME. Ken Buck doesn't want a middle class. Plain and simple. He wants the 1% because they donate the money to his party so he can buy those nice suits like the one he's wearing here.
7:14 – Rep. Ken Buck (R-Colorado) – "We can't keep adding a trillion or two trillion dollars to our National Debt." Unless it's to give tax breaks to the richest in America, in which case, f*** America, let the debt go through the roof!
This bill is not going to pass. Hope the Republicans can stop it. Not good for americans. McCarthy is a liar and deceiving the people. We can remove him later if we're lucky.
Who would believe any msm that is being owned & controlled by the Kabal ?
Historical fact: when Biden and Harris are impeached for their corruption and shear incompetence, McCarthy is next in line for the Presidency.
God speed.
Leave him alone he is trying to work this out come on Republicans let Kevin ,& Biden get over this bad situation and continue to work on debt
This woman anxiously is GASLIGHTING!
She’s inferring our country’s default at the hands of Republicans.
Sounded more like wishful thinking.
She wasn’t reporting.
She was leading with her FAILED QUESTIONS
bad reporting
Oh, so now suddenly Republicans care about their politicians breaking promises? 🙄
Save 7 trillion and repeal the old tax break for the rich.
We can't handle all the spending but your willing to give the wealthy another tax break?
When the Vote comes up on the Debt ceiling, lets have it Nationally Televised.
He wants the speakers gavel and wasn't he objective to Trump's tax cuts.
35 Trillion is just a limit and I guess he doesn't realize this?! By raising the Debt Limit is only limiting how much they can spend in the future. The Budget is where they would make the cuts or limits as to how much they are willing to spend! If republicans get a greater control they would spend 4 times that and then blame it on the Democrats like they always do! The merry-go-round has to stop and republicans have to be held liable for their spending and support for the rich! Give America back to the people!
Too late, Ken. The bill is what it is, and y'all barely have enough time to get it through before a default. If you keep messing around, it's entirely on McCarthy, you, and your colleagues.
Just ask q what to do.
Trump put that trillion on top of the debt ceiling yet you’re here complaining when republicans voted 3 times to in order to cut tax break for the rich
Bidens four years will have spent 1.6 trillion less than Trumps and his Republicans four years having spent 7.8 trillion dollars. Trump and his Republicans gave 2.4 trillion in tax cuts that the US had to borrow money to pay for. The top 5% received 87% of the benefit from the tax cuts.
USA is 31 trillion dollars in debt. Yes, the World's debt leader. Blame China and Mexico again?
International humiliation from the insurrection and pandemic mismanagement was not enough.
No country on Earth feels safe continuing to base their currencies solely on America's dollar.
Republicans Are Unsustainable For This Country🎉 VOTE BLUE EVERYTHING 🎉
Why aren't the Democrats bringing up Trump and his increasing the debt ceiling three times without negotiations?
This guy was not worried about increasing the debt during the Trump years. Republicans are Hippocrates
No idea about governing. When did compromise and common ground become so toxic? This is what happens when the extremes start to resemble the mainstream.
I knew therre would be be gleitch
The freedom caucus is messed up
The Democrats removed the changes made by the Republicans, vote this bloated Bill down.
NBC is trying to create a story out of nothing.
No wonder Dumbo agreed to this bill! The Democrats made out!
Throw McCarthy Out! He's Deep State and He Will ALWAYS Fail The American People.
So basically in a nut shell, he has not idea who would replace the speaker of the house other than not him. So his treat is hollow great job old man.
No one Dumbo agreed to it!!!
