micknaboz Posted May 19 Author Share Posted May 19 So for all the deficit whiners, tell me specifically what it is you would cut to balance the budget? I personally start with the oil companies and their tens of billions in subsidies and tax breaks. Than quickly move into the defense budget. Talk about bloated. 1 1 Quote [/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd just want to see them say it, where will they slash expenses. Food stamps (now EBT)? Social Security? ( Yes some R's have talked about it) Defense budget? What it be my right wing brothers? And lest we forget all these legislators have constituencies to answer to, and most of them and their districts benefit in some way in those budgets. 2 1 Quote [/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garbage bills filled with pork and wish list items for Democrats, as well? What has the Biden regime done for those blacks he was so concerned with during the election? Did he make a deal with BLM to help black communities like he said he would? Did he help HBCU's like Trump? What?! He actually took funding away!

HipKat Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 I saw an article that compared the last 6 presidents and how many times they raised the debt limit. Going from Trump back to Reagan 1) Trump raised 2 times and suspended it twice in 4 years. When he started it was $19.9 trillion and when he left it rose to $27 trillion dollars. 2) Obama raised it 7 times in 8 years. When he started $11.3 trillion and when he left it was $19.9 trillion. 3) George W. Bush raised it 7 times in 8 years. When he started $5.9 trillion and when he left it was $11.3 trillion 4) Bill Clinton raised it 4 times in 8 years. When he started $4.1 trillion and left it was $5.9 trillion 5) George H. Bush raised it 7 times in 4 years. started at $2.8 trillion and when he left $4.1 trillion **And the winner for the president who raised the debt limit the most! 6) Ronald Reagan who raised it a whopping 18 times in 8 years. When he started at $935 billion dollars and when he left it was $2.8 trillion. Quote “There he goes. One of God's own prototypes.

micknaboz Posted May 20 Author Share Posted May 20 Robert Reich Favorites · · My advice to President Biden: Ignore McCarthy and the MAGA radicals. Mr. President, your oath to uphold the Constitution takes precedence. And as the supreme law of the land, the Constitution has greater weight than the law on the debt ceiling. As Senator Warren states below, Section Four of the Fourteenth Amendment says that, “The validity of the public debt of the United States … shall not be questioned.” A debt ceiling that prevents the government from honoring its existing financial commitments clearly violates the Constitution. So, if Republicans threaten the full faith and credit of the United States, you are constitutionally obligated to ignore the debt ceiling, and must continue to pay the nation’s bills. Should they wish, let the radical Republicans take you to court. Even the conservatives on the Supreme Court will likely support you. No “originalist” interpretation of the Constitution could read that document differently, The Constitution makes it clear that Congress’s power to borrow money does not include the power to default on such borrowings. If Republicans are going to play this game, Mr. President, you need to play hard ball. 1 Quote [/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

micknaboz Posted May 21 Author Share Posted May 21 So now Trump is encouraging Republicans in the House to default on our debt Cause after all who better to give advice on the budget than someone whose companies declared bankruptcy like six times. Nice! Lets drive the world economy into a recession. That is the Republican plan to try and take power. Quote [/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
micknaboz Posted May 21 Author Share Posted May 21 Trump’s most enduring legacy could be the historic rise in the national debt It rose almost $7.8 trillion during his time in the White House — approaching World War II levels, relative to the size of the economy. This time around, it will be much harder to dig ourselves out. https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2021/01/14/trump-legacy-national-debt-increasee/ 1 Quote [/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's looking like Biden is getting ready to challenge tradition around who can actually pass a budget contending Biden by himself can pass a budget.From what I'm reading it's looking like Joe has a very good case the general consensus being if this goes to courts he wins. Something about the 14th Amendment and how all the nations debts are guaranteed and thus we cannot default. Republicans should learn to not fk with this guy, he is so out of their league. So how do the republicans save face here. Is that even possible. Because of the extremism on the right in the House, compromise is not looking promising. They are not averse to cutting off their noses to spite their faces. McCarthy's legacy takes another body blow as Biden shows him he doesn't need them after all. Compromise that ! https://www.nytimes.com/2023/05/09/opinion/biden-mccarthy-debt-ceiling.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philly'sFinest Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 Dems are leaving because of the direction the Biden regime and the other loons on the left have taken due to their TDS These people went full nuclear on America and it's people because of the Orange man, and it's unraveling for them You have to ask yourself why they would do this? Why would they risk everything? It's because he was ending them. But now, all he has to do is simply sit back and watch them destroy themselves.
