There is currently no debt ceiling because former Speaker McCarthy suspended the limit until 2025 (foolishly). So Biden can borrow an unlimited amount of money.
It went up $275 billion in ONE DAY.
$442 billion in just two weeks.

When you consider how many Republicans swing far left now days, this doesn't bode well for the near or far future.

I don't think it's a rumor as I've seen many reports on it now. Pelosi had a secret office with McCarthy.....
To your point, are we confident in the integrity of the voting machines and laws now?
I am not.

Just saw the reports too. I had no idea.
Just two old pals from California sharing an office- what a farce.

Rand Paul is the man to cleanse the RINOs out of the republican party.
CLARITY: theconservativetreehouse.com... -251538
According to multiple DC media sources, a quiet effort is underway by members of the professionally republican mindset to kick Matt Gaetz out of the House Republican caucus. However, the advocates worry they will be primaried by voters in their district, as the population of Republican voters supports Gaetz. It is a duplicitous dynamic.
Meanwhile, Kevin McCarthy has told his Republican conference that despite prior statements, he will not attempt to become the House Speaker again and will instead retire to his home district in California.
No one is quite sure what comes next; what is clear is that Gaetz has channeled the frustration of the Republican/MAGA base into an actionable result. This should not come as a surprise to the GOPe, although many of the cloistered clan continue pretending not to understand the dynamic at play.
Allow me to provide some simple clarity.
------------CLARITY OMITTED - READ IT AT THE LINK---------------
This is the reality of what took place between the elections of 2010 and 2020. Every ask of the professionally rRpublican apparatus was delivered by voters. Every ask of the voters in return was ignored. Effective January 2021, Obamacare still exists, no budget was ever produced, the borders were unsecured, the economy tanked due to Biden policy, energy and printing presses. Crises, along with insufferable government mandates, amplified and expanded from coast to coast.
The Green New Deal was passed by Republicans and Democrats, and the collapse of the economy came with it.
Clear enough?
Suddenly, as if there was no background of repeated broken promises and a complete failure to deliver on any key request, Kevin McCarthy and his legion of professionally Republican supporters pretend they cannot fathom why the base voters are more than happy to support Matt Gaetz.
