House lawmakers furious over deal raising debt ceiling by $4 Trillion with no cap on spending for 2 more years, maintaining Democrats’ wish list, and keeping in place IRS expansion by 98% "Fake conservatives agree to fake spending cuts," mocks Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.).
Conservative House Republicans are sounding the alarm over Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s debt ceiling deal with the Biden regime, which was just announced on Saturday night.
McCarthy has been taking victory laps since the deal was announced, calling it a “step in the right direction” in part because it doesn’t raise taxes.
“We were able to do this when the president said he wasn’t even going to talk to us,” McCarthy told anchor Shannon Bream on “Fox News Sunday.” “This is really a step in the right direction. That puts us [at] a trajectory that’s different. We put a statutory cap on only spending 1 percent for the next six years. So we let government grow but at a slower rate.”
But his conservative colleagues are claiming the deal is a disaster because Biden still gets to raise the debt ceiling by $4 trillion with no spending cap until 2025, well past the next election.
“This ‘deal’ is insanity,” claimed Rep. Ralph Norman (R-S.C.). “A $4T debt ceiling increase with virtually no cuts is not what we agreed to. Not gonna vote to bankrupt our country. The American people deserve better.”
