When there’s no accountability for sedition, Freedom Caucus members, most of whom voted to overturn the 2020 presidential election, will continue to act lawless & entitled. This is the sentiment from many House Republicans: If Speaker’s negotiators bring back in substance a clean debt limit increase… one so large that it even protects Biden from the issue in the presidential…, it’s war. -Rep Dan Bishop

Sec Yellen means well, but she shouldn’t have given McCarthy & the obstructionist/seditious Republicans more time. They fundamentally don't believe in the USG, esp. the social safety net, the Fed & the IRS. There’s no guarantee they won’t cause a default with a few more days, it's likely their intent. US will default on June 5 if debt limit not raised, Treasury says.

If Dems cave on this... Democrats must make IRS funding NON-NEGOTIABLE: House Republicans are on track to win on some top priorities, including rescinding🚨 some of the $80B allocated for the IRS by last year’s Inflation Reduction Act. cnbc.com/2023/05/26/debt-ceili

McCarthy losing his speakership is good news, but will it trigger a default? The best of both worlds: he loses it & no default. Repealing $80B in new IRS funding IS NOT NEGOTIABLE. They want the TSY Sec to justify her default timeline +HSE to pass leg. extending the debt limit by one month for more time to pressure the WH into accepting all🚨of their demands. 35 Freedom Caucus Members Demand McCarthy Expand Debt Limit Negotiations With Biden-:

First take hostages with their poison pill bill. Then they walk out of negotiations. Now they’re leaving town. Their behavior shows they don’t care if America goes into default (indeed, it looks like they’re trying to make it happen). This could not be more clearly the or cnn.com/2023/05/25/politics/de

Rep Casar: I'm standing here on the Republican side of the aisle not because I'm a Republican, I'm a Democrat, but I want the American people to see that there isn't any Republicans in the seats here behind me on the eve of our default. Where are the Republicans? 12:03 PM 5/25/23
Republicans aren't legitimate lawmakers, they've gone home for the weekend while the debt ceiling is in limbo bc of Republican demands.

Fitting, always harms the most vulnerable first.
Seniors nationwide are on the front lines of the fight to raise the debt ceiling, bc if the USG can’t make a June 2 payment slated for SS recipients, the oldest beneficiaries — those over 88 — & people with disabilities will be the first to suffer. Roughly $98B worth of benefits, incl. MDCF, MDCD, & military &civil retirement payments, are scheduled to go out in the first two days of June-: washingtonpost.com/business/20

McCarthy likes to claim his debt limit bill would break Dems’ “addiction to spending" but Rs would subject just 13% of fed spending to the knife *exempt nat. def., some veterans programs, SS & MDCR, & ~half of all spending -debt-limit bill calls for trimming 9% from the $1.6T -currently goes to annual discretionary spending. But: Rs’ promised exemptions for the Pentagon & some Vets programs -so cuts in what’s left on the table would reach🚨~30%. latimes.com/opinion/story/2023

The seditious Republican HOSTAGE-TAKERS are demanding even more or they'll force a default which will lead to a global economic crisis. McCarthy said that they're not willing to make concessions: A Dem official said Republicans have already rejected at least two compromise offers from the WH🚨. The first proposed a govt spending freeze next year at its current level, & another offer would put in place a two-year cap on spending. cnbc.com/2023/05/25/debt-ceili

The Republican Party is deranged, corrupt & seditious. It's not just MOC who're advocating for a default, now the Republican National Committee Chair is on record, cheering for global economic chaos. McDaniel explained the country’s ills can only help Republicans.

Hostage taking over the debt ceiling ( McCarthy & his Republican cabal): Rep Greg Casar: I think it's a question I've been asked about multiple times. And this is a question, like asking a hostage, why didn't you pick the lock faster? Why didn't you get your arms untied quicker? Video: c-span.org/video/?c5072126/use

When TFG was president, GOP MOC were happy to sign off on a suspension of the debt ceiling🚨, despite every baby born in 2019 owing an $83K bill to the govt. What’s particularly odd about McCarthy’s rhetoric -it assumes that Americans of every age should contribute the same amount to paying off the debt. Why does that tiny infant owe $94K instead of the retiring Americans who enjoyed the benefits of not paying off the debt for multiple decades?: washingtonpost.com/politics/20

😭House Republicans are treating the as a JOKE: During GOP conference today, House Rs did about a 15-min fundraising auction for chapstick used by Speaker McCarthy. The winner: Rep Greene, whose winning bid was $100K. Others bid on it as well, but MTG ultimately won: And as bidding went on, McCarthy would sweeten the deal, throwing in agreeing to attend a dinner with donors/supporters for whoever wins. -O Beavers
President Biden shouldn't negotiate with seditious domestic terrorists.

“Something that greatly concerns me is that Republicans have even been in favor of removing funding that’s been provided to the IRS to crack down on tax fraud… It amounts to an estimated $7 TRILLION over the next decade” -Sec Yellen. Is she naive? Doesn’t she understand that they’re seditionists, their intent is to default & ultimately destroy the IRS, Fed, & most of the USG & blame Biden & Dems to win in 2024? nbcnews.com/politics/white-hou
