Nancy Mace also cited provisions, termed the “fine print,” which allegedly contradict aspects of the bill.
“After factoring in a small cut to discretionary spending over the next 2 yrs, we are still talking about ~$6T more or less in spending bc (sic) of large increases in spending elsewhere. In other words, it’s a wash spending-wise,” wrote Mace. She added, “The bill doesn’t actually set a debt limit. Rather it suspends the debt limit entirely until Jan. 2, 2025, and there is no actual amount capping the debt ceiling.”
Mace also highlighted a provision of the bill that would allow the Director of the Office of Management and Budget to spend money irrespective of PAYGO regulations, which were enacted by Congress in 1990 and require all new federal spending to not add to the national debt. “[T]hat one line wipes out PAYGO,” she wrote.
Mace also lamented that the bill does not reduce funding for 87,000 IRS agent hires, does not repeal the Biden-Harris Student Debt Relief program and raised work requirements for food stamp benefits by four years, from 50 to 54, for beneficiaries. The bill “[f]ully funds every spending request by the Administration. … Republicans got outsmarted by a President who can’t find his pants,” she wrote.

McCarthy tries to Save Joe. Fine Print shows it was all a Trick to fool the base.
Until people wake up and realize that the establishment protects its own, and both parties are part of it so not expect anything substantive to change…
Period
Kevin got caught with his pants down, and there is a Swamp monster embroidered on his shorts.
True, so vote NO Nancy and convince your colleagues to do the same.
Uh, outsmarted or, shall we say, “compromised”.
Republicans didn’t do anything about the budget when they had majorities in the House, Senate and Trump as President, what are they going to do now?
They won't. Cowards.
can simply VOTE “No”
we didnt get outsmarted- we got betrayed by rinos... again-
I knew from day 1 of this pretend crisis that it would be “settled” and it would be bad for the GOP.
How did I know? From Day 1 Biden looked and spoke like a demented fool who ate the canary. He had that Biden self confidence like the ousting of the Ukraine investigator when he assured us a deal would be worked out.
They had a deal from Day one, and McCarthy should now be fired.
.
Yes. No one is this bad of a negotiator.
They knew Biden wanted the real prize, no more Debt Limit until after his last Election. They gave it to him on a Silver Platter.
.
.
Absolutely!
.
So true!! NOT surprised!!!!!!
I’ve got to register as an Independent!
Sick of these tool bag Republiturds!
I doubt it’s a case of being outsmarted. More likely complicity.
This is from 6 years ago and was prophetic back then. We’ve rapidly devolved to that point. It’s here.

McCarthy is in over his head, “Loose the dogs of War”. With McCarthy’s budget acceptance is funding for 87000 IRS agents, armed agents. That’s 1700 per State and they’re nothing more than a gov’t armed Gestapo police force. The American people are in for a great surprise if it passes Congressional Vote and is signed by our demented President because Obozo tells him to sign.
The Republicans are the Washington Generals to the dems harlem globetrotters
