Washington does have a spending problem its paying congressmen like McCarthy
To much salary money a year- (over 170.000 a year)
Its time to cut McCarthys salary to 15.000 a year

Republicans should use their leverage to get rid of Social Security and Medicare. They’ll complain but soon they’ll be dead and the Republicans will achieve their goal of getting rid of useless eaters.

Bj Waugh says:

The GOP wants the United States to default…they want chaos because they know the GOP cant win an election so they will attempt to install a dictator during ensuing chaos

The Israelis SWEAR they gotta keep printing our money to ashes. And these guys will eventually agree.

You need to understand something you white Christian conservative zealot. If we default the red States will get hurt the most. That would be your Arkansas your Mississippi, Alabama your West Virginia your Kentucky and your Tennessee. And of course there are all the investors from Gen X to Millennials to Gen Z. Believe me when I say we have a bone to pick with white Christian conservative red States. Give us a reason to put our finances to work against you…..please.

All done by design, biblical is what it is if we let them destroy our country! All part of the plan, they divided us and now we cant get together as one people and stand as one , they control this way! United we stand, divided we fall.
