McCarthy: if GOP win House we will use raising debt limit as leverage to force spending cuts — including Medicare, Social Security, & Ukraine war fund

[basquebromance]

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy “signaled that additional aid to Ukraine, now in the ninth month of war with Russia, is unlikely if Republicans have a House majority.”

Ukraine Aid on the Chopping Block in a GOP-Controlled House

Some Republicans are already saying they’ve made up their minds about more Ukraine aid.

If you bleev the Republicans are fiscally responsible, I have a 30,000 square foot apartment in Trump Tower to sell you.

And a scholarship to Trump U.

I didn't see medicare and Social Security in the link. Cheap scare tacticts don't work anymore since Americans are feeling the effects of inflation and high energy costs. If you look at the facts instead of the fantasy the lefties want to create you will see that retirement 401k's have shrunk during the Biden administration and the elderly are struggling to heat their homes this winter when the cost of heating oil has skyrocketed. If republicans don't take over in the mid terms this Country is likely to go down the tubes.

2 % across the board.

If Trump or any of his sympathizers interfere with America's war against Russia, the deep state will lash out violently.

The political insanity in domestic politics will never be permitted to change US foreign policy of continuous wars of aggression. Especially not this current war which is essential to America's future!

Russia pretends it's a democracy, but it's actually a dictatorship

so it's just like America!

hopefully there is change in the near future from Putin's mafia state into an open democracy (after the war ends)

Whatever Russia is, it's not a threat to the rest of the world.

Russia has simply drawn the line against US aggression and encroachment on Russia's borders.

Which of course will have the effect of stopping America's aggression against many of the world's countries' borders.

If nuclear war can be avoided, the future of the world will be in 'two' very large and powerful factions.

I agree. Russians should not be strangers in the Western world. they are EUROPEANS!

WAPO's terror tactics become more desperate (and predictable) as we approach the election. Strange that a major news outlet refuses to deal with real issues and instead becomes the propaganda arm of a failed administration.

Meh, the spineless fucks will fold just like they always have.

McCarthy said it himself, bro

Sunday shows ignore GOP plan to provoke a catastrophic debt crisis in order to cut Social Security, Medicare

So in other words, it's the same old song and dance, from the Neo-Bunch

America's war against Russia is essential to US hegemony going forward. If America doesn't prevail, the world is a different and better place forever.

Both sides need an escape from military hostilities that can be claimed as a facesaving partial victory.ll
The members of this board don't seem to be able to understand that yet.

Arrogance?

Hence why January 6 was turned into the worst thing in human history. Warnings to those who attempt to rock the cradle of world government.

They were all in for Afghanistan and Iraq

Just more fearmongering and propaganda from Mother Russia China and The DemNazi Party.
