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.
There is no use worrying about the Democrats, as long as we have Rinos. These Rinos, like Mitch, are just democrats than ran in the Republican party. 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 no matter what we do, the Rinos will always screw it up.
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. And why would that rich, pretty wife marry him, with his not good looks and boring personality, other than for political influence. Mitch cursed the Tea Party in 2009 and treated Obama like a guest. He attacked and investigated Trump for 4 years, while covering up massive DOJ corruption. He said nothing, he did nothing, about the massive nationwide organized riots, and never asked the DOJ to do anything about it. He was a fan of the scamdemic and Fauci lockdowns from day one and has never uttered a word of criticism. I recall no comments from him on massive censorship. Finally, he sided with the election coup and called Trump an insurrectionist.
It is nowhere near sufficient to be upset with Mitch, he gave plenty of reasons for 12 years, yet the party spit in our faces and kept him as a leader. He is the top key to the failure of the party to be an opposition. The fact that he is still there shows the party is hopeless. And he already has control of his replacement to be similar to himself.
