Every company should be paying their taxes, billionaires, millionaires, and trillionaires. PLEASE let’s not forget to tax churches now that they have decided to play in the political area. EVERYONE TAXED!

Trump wants to blow the debt ceiling off to pocket for himself and rest of the billionaires.

Speaker Johnson needs to address the evil things musk is planning.

Doesn’t the Congressional Parliamentarian have to rule on whether certain aspects of law fit within the requirements of any Reconciliation Bill?

I know there’s some people that gotta feel like idiots right now. They voted for trump on all his broken promises of slashing the debt ceiling, cutting government spending, lowering gas and groceries and making america affordable again. Not even a month in office and they’re talking about raising the debt ceiling. Manipulating Americas Gullible Ass.

UNCEASING PRAYER IS ON THE WAY TO GET YOU THROUGH IT: Prophetically, you will be successful. I am praying to limit the rounds. God bless the Republican party and Mike Johnson, Speaker of the House.

@StacBurger-x6s says:

Guys going to pass legislation that says no mega bills that are 100,000 pages that nobody’s reading because that’s what has gotten us here and Republicans need to stand up and do the peoples bidding and stop Democrats from ever abusing this power again

@Jay-j6m2l says:

GOP Raising the debt ceiling? I thought that was BAD? See the “it’s my turn to spend your tax dollars” pattern here. Each party acknowledged the risk of borrowing more than you take in and that’s inflation. Inflation follows and hits the next president who comes into office. The new president is than blamed if that president isn’t from the same party that triggered it. Wars are inflationary and not good for the economy! Vietnam? That continued war triggered the inflation Jimmy Carter was blamed for. Reagan benefited. He ran up more debt by spending on the military. Bush raised taxes and balanced the budget. It cost him his second term. Clinton benefited. The seeds of disaster are always sown by previous administrations and are always blamed on the current guy.

@h.s.levine2932 says:

I just noticed Johnson’s very poor posture in this video. It’s as if he’s trying to keep his head down to avoid answering the questions.

@dougnbodie says:

GOP will raise the debt ceiling without a doubt ????????????????????

@buzzbro9823 says:

Bunch of cowards hiding come out face the see how strong you are by the military is the peoples side not the corrupt government

@normahipsher710 says:

Weak men all of them. So scared. The women have more backbone. They are not afraid to speak up to that bully.

@jkdsteve says:

Trump wants it, of course it is….just as a negotiation tactic.

@blackkaizer3810 says:
