more Democrats (46) than Republicans (17) voted to pass the measure

McCarthy negotiated a bill that Democrats overwhelmingly favored. What a wasted opportunity. McCarthy was a terrible pick for speaker.

Hopefully a brave Republican Senator added in these words:

18 USC 922 (o) is hereby repealed.

you said...”McCarthy was a terrible pick for speaker.”

And now we will pay the price...
All spending originates in the House.
They passed a bill .. and that's where they should have left it until the Senate took it up.
period ... full stop.
Negotiating against your self is not the way to win

Registered Republicans need to leave the party en masse. I left after January 6th. I’d seen the writing on the wall a long time ago. The majority of Republicans voting to accept Biden’s fraudulent electors, and sanctioning unlimited voter fraud that day, pushed me over the edge. They are nothing but a bunch of gutless wonders. The only time they know their constituents is when they want something from them. The rest of the time they stab you in the back.

Trump endorsed McCarthy for Speaker

"Some really good conversations took place last night, and it's now time for all of our GREAT Republican House members to VOTE FOR KEVIN, CLOSE THE DEAL, TAKE THE VICTORY," Trump

DJT has this obsession with picking “winners”

Endorsing kevin for speaker is not maga. Endorsing Rinos is not Maga. DJT is feeding the swamp,assisting the swamp and I cannot understand why. makes me wonder if he’s a main star in some larger then usual Kabuki going on.

Trump has not even commented on this entire sordid mess of a debt ceiling deal.

No leadership coming from Trump. He is hiding.

No one gets everything they want in a negotiation, but make no mistake: this bipartisan agreement is a big win for our economy and the American people,” Biden said in a statement shortly after the bill’s passage.

CROCK OF SH## They got everything they wanted otherwise they would have deep sixed it immediately. As far as a big win for the American people, they can shove it

“Thanks to House Republicans’ efforts, the Fiscal Responsibility Act avoids the catastrophic consequences of default and begins to curb Washington Democrats’ addiction to reckless spending that grows our nation’s debt,” Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky.

Whole lotta lying going on here. Mitch is only the beginning. Imagine the majority and the minority in the House snookering the American people into believing the crap stated in the article?

Imagine the same from the Senate, and you pretty well know who your friends are in Government.

Imagine how much longer we can allow our money to be squandered by the crooks masquerading as our Representatives and Senators and you will harken back to January sixth, to know just what possibilities remain to alter reality.

Contemplate our future with lying deceiving sob’s running what the founding fathers would have taken up arms to kill before the virus spread any farther.

Imagine the Declaration of Independence locked in it’s hermetically sealed box in the museum of Natural History. Locked up tight like the January sixth patriots never to be seem again. Until at least “they” confess their guilt.

Imagine the fake and deliberate fraud of a president falling all over himself to add to the snooker of you and me and the rest of the majority that actually believe in the sovereignty of “We the People”.
