Thanks to Mitch McConnell and his band of RINOs, the debt limit will be extended into 2023. That gives Democrats plenty of time to push through their socialist/communist bills.
It will last beyond the midterms, giving Democrat politicos in Red States the ability to run on not wanting to raise the debt ceiling. They won’t be held to account.
Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, a New York Democrat, praised the deal, which came after weeks of partisan wrangling. A vote is expected on Tuesday.
Democrats can now say it’s all bipartisan.
The Senate vote will require only a simple majority of all Democrats to advance and pass it, thanks to the deal cut with Republicans.
Republicans refused to vote for a long-term increase in the borrowing limit, citing rampant spending by Democrats that is adding to the nation’s debt, which now stands at more than $27 trillion.
Then Mitch did the predictable- he caved.
Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, a Kentucky Republican, nonetheless cut a deal last week to facilitate a quick passage with only Democratic votes, prompting backlash from conservatives.
Democrats have passed trillions in new spending since taking control of Congress and the White House and are aiming to pass a $1.85 to $3 trillion social welfare bill by Christmas.
McConnell keeps making sure it’s bipartisan to help Democrats.
Mitch is the dirt of the earth.
Mitch McConnell is so scared of the Nuclear option he will cave to everything. Force the Democrats to use the Nuclear option. Imagine what can happen when Republicans take over and only needs 50% plus one to pass everything. Republicans will still have to deal with Senate RINOs until 2027.
He and his toadies have to be stifled and removed.
It’s time for a recall petition in Kentucky.

If we do not get rid of them first, it will make no difference to oppose the democrats. We either vote the Rinos out and force them back into the democrat party, or… Read more »
I agree, I am disgusted too with Mitch. But, being fooled again and being upset over it is not a path to success. Mitch’s conflicts with China began in 1993.

GOP capitulate every time, as a rule.
Turkey Neck CCP Mitch isn’t smart enough to know the that Long March CPUSA comrades view him as a useful idiot?
Nope. It is all Kabuki and he is a comrade for life.
He deserves an Oscar for the peachy mints performance.
Forward! Yes we can.
They view Mitch as a kept idiot, a man who has too many conflicts and corrupt arrangements to be honest.
