The 14th Amendment gives us the information that seems to elude this administration. After Section 4 comes Section 5, which states, precisely ...

Section 5.
The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.

Regardless of this administrations protests that the debt ceiling impairs their ability to continue borrowing, the debt ceiling law is precisely the "appropriate legislation" inspired by Congress in the words this administration despises.
