House Leadership McCarthy and Looming Government shutdown

[Dante Reawakened]

Oops! Leadership? It doesn't exist on the GOP side anymore. Pelosi knew how to get things done. The 2024 election and the next one in 2026 -- we'll probably see GOP losses.

Threatening to shutdown the government is another act of domestic terrorism by Republicans.

How much spending should be warranted?

When does the rampant spending stop?

How much sending should be warranted?

Sending? The more, the merrier, the faster, the better. Amazon got the knife I ordered here in two days standard (a day ahead of schedule), and I don't even use prime.

Whatever it takes. We're supposed to be the wealthiest nation on Earth.

When people like you follow through, and drop dead.

We are $33T in debt. You can’t keep printing money and devaluing the dollar, or the 70% of Americans having a hard time with inflation will be 90%.

Such a nice leftist.

Just remarkable that Dems / Marxists don't understand basic economics.

So we are the wealthiest...does that mean that we keep spending money we don't have?
Just how does that work, and not have any blowback with our "wealthy" economy?

Leftists, for all their bragging about being the educated ones, never passed Econ 101.

Maybe Balless McCarthy should take a meeting Ms. Pelosi on how to count votes before bringing a bill to the floor

you've paid very little in federal taxes with your meager job......you get everything free you tax eating slob...you pay no federal taxes...you are useless to this society....act on it

33 trillion in debt isn't the wealthiest nation on earth.

Pelosi is a drunk whore who got rich insider trading!

While the dollar has declined over the past six months, it remains close to a 10-year high versus currencies of countries with which the U.S. trades. It also remains the primary currency used for trade and financial transactions in the global economy. The size of the recent non-dollar transactions that have raised alarm are very small. Trade in yuan accounted for less than 2% of global trade in 2022.

It would be far easier to take the GOP seriously if they ever once cared about spending when they held the House and the White House.

Odd how when those two things are in play they never, ever, ever , ever, cut spending

I couldn't agree more. Both parties need to reduce spending, seriously reduce,
and not just use the fuzzy math.

The first place to start is to secure the border. We are spending more than $100 billion a YEAR for them.

The second place is to crack down on the abuse of the SSDI system. It’s atrocious how much money is stolen from the government via that program.

The third place is to require any able-bodied adult without pre-school children to get a job in order to keep getting Medicaid, food stamps, subsidized housing, etc.

The fourth place is to abolish the child tax credits for any family earning $100,000 a year or more. It is ridiculous to have people earning $40,000 help support the children of affluent earners.

The fifth place is to stop this talk about reparations. There’s no money for it, and any talk of it is a blatant attempt to buy the votes of blacks.

I could go on, but this is a start.
