Mitch McConnell Pushing Filibuster Carveout for Debt Ceiling to Protect His ‘Ego’
Breitbart ^ | 12/07/2021 | Sean Moran

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell’s (R-KY) efforts to fast-track the debt ceiling is a tactic to protect his own “ego,” a former senior GOP aide told Breitbart News.

McConnell has pushed to fast-track the adoption of legislation to raise the debt ceiling. His proposal would allow the Senate to consider the debt ceiling legislation with only a 51-vote majority or to allow it to pass with mainly Democrat votes.

there is just no stopping or even slowing this train. Paul ryan did the same damn thing when Obama was president.

No other proof is needed. These men are the swamp scum, pure scum.

FUMM

Scum, indeed, they allowed the election to be stolen. They allowed these criminals to usurp the rightful president. They are arrogant, they do not believe in the rule of law, or the right of the American people to rule themselves. In fact, they are worse than scum.

And what makes me really angry is that we will be voting to return them office in 2022 and beyond, rationalizing that this scum is the lesser of the two evils.

Didn't he promise back in September or early October when he got screwed by first debt ceiling increase that he wasn't going to do this again?

What a complete, effing joke.

The rumors are probably true that he was on the receiving end when he was in the military and got discharged.

He pushed through Biden’s agenda.

But, people are brainwashed by their TV. The obvious does not compute to these people.

McConnell and Graham have done more evil to us than Pelosi and Schumer.

Like giving George Floyd an unlimited credit card & sending him to the local drug dealer.

Is it possible that Mitch called up judges after the election and told them not to do anything? He is involved in selecting them with groups.

I just wrote Mitch an email and told him to kill the bills and the debt ceiling and that he will be considered a hero by all Americans for saving us from communism if he does. Maybe that approach will work, you think?
