Weekend thread: What's happening?
GOP plan revealed on holding debt ceiling hostage. Walls closing in on George Santos. But...media says Biden is facing "worst political crisis of his presidency" over found classified documents.
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen warned this week that the U.S. is hitting the debt ceiling next Thursday. Yellen wrote in a letter to new GOP House Speaker Kevin McCarthy that Treasury is “taking certain extraordinary measures to prevent the United States from defaulting on its obligations.” This comes as the GOP not only threatens to hold the debt ceiling hostage — daring to send the global economy into chaos — but now has revealed the insane plan to cut vital government programs that may actually be impossible to implement. We are headed for sheer chaos it seems.
As GOP leaders in New York have called on Rep. George Santos to resign, more is being exposed about his businesses and the way he made his money, including via a company the SEC shut down as a Ponzi scheme. How long will Santos last?
And yet...according to much of our media it is Joe Biden’s presidency — and his bid in 2024 — that is in“peril” as the classified documents story is apparently “clouding” his future, and has become the “worst crisis” of his presidency.
After everything that Donald Trump did throughout his presidency and beyond, this incident — which pales in comparison to Trump’s document problem — is going to sink Biden? Really?
