With a Debt Ceiling Battle Ongoing, the Naysayers Want Us to Believe Speaker McCarthy Is on His Own

Ask any traitorous communist/globalist, mass propaganda media masquerade artist, or even one of many ingratiating RINOs and the misconstrued picture you will be given is one of a perpetually falling sky.

And the recently initiated fiscal fight in the House seems to be no exception.

This from redstate.com.

The Obiden Regime and congressional communists/globalists are adamant that a clean debt ceiling increase has to happen or else the consequences will be dire.

Mitch McConnell, Senate RINO extraordinaire, is telling the mass propaganda media:

“We will not default.”

However, the truth be told, in the House, MAGA Republicans are poised to force a lengthy battle over the debt ceiling and potentially bring about cuts to the federal budget.

That puts House Speaker McCarthy somewhere he may not be comfortable being. The odds makers are scurrying to determine what McCarthy is made of.

He is in the driver’s seat of a prolonged ideological battle.

Can he keep his racecar labeled ‘GOP’ between the ditches?

And other than his MAGA supporters in the House, McCarthy is apparently having to go it alone. The collection of RINO and Conservative senators who feign to be of the GOP appear to be more than willing to let the House take up this fight on its own.

This means the conservatives who drew major concessions from McCarthy in the driver’s seat, are putting a lot of options for cuts on the table, but also potentially exposing which House Republicans are not so willing to go along with cuts—and which of those McCarthy still has sway over and can trust to help with the imminent spring cleaning.

POLITICO put out a HIT piece yesterday morning highlighting McCarthy’s struggle:

With the government funded until the end of September, many Republicans believe it’s McCarthy’s turn to make the tough calls during the new era of split government. Take Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine), who’s about as amenable to lifting the debt ceiling as any Republican you’ll find in the Capitol.

At the moment, she said, her ‘preference would be for the president to sit down with Speaker McCarthy, listen to one another and work out an agreement.’ She said she did not know whether a so-called clean debt ceiling increase could even pass the Senate.

McCarthy’s challenge isn’t just to pass a bill lifting the debt ceiling, it’s to assuage his conservatives who are eager for draconian fiscal cuts in return—while eventually reaching an agreement with some House [democrat communist/globalist] support to show momentum in the Senate.

Those competing agendas could be difficult, if not impossible, to reconcile by the time the Treasury Department is finished using what are known as extraordinary measures to maximize the country’s remaining borrowing authority.

“[D]raconian fiscal cuts…” WTH! This is an obvious HIT piece by POLITICO—they’re all lemmings being led over the cliff.

Good news, though. This is not McCarthy’s first test as Speaker—surviving 15 votes and succumbing to a host of concessions, then seeing to the initiation of those concessions were all BIG tests.

Some may even say he’s already seasoned. And surprisedly, he has begun to earn at least a small measure of respect and appreciation from many Conservatives—but not all. Yet.

This fight which is truly about fiscal responsibility presently seems like it could go on for weeks, or even months. The fiscal health of the United States is at risk, and no matter which choices Speaker McCarthy makes, he’ll be attacked by at least one side of the fight, and possibly both.

The communists/globalists are sacrosanctfully pushing for a clean debt ceiling increase, and conservatives want cuts that POLITICO refers to as “draconian.”

More moderate Republicans are open to a more balanced approach, with some cuts but also a debt ceiling increase. Whether they will be of help to McCarthy is questionable.

So, what’s on the table for cuts? According to the Washington Post, quite a lot:

So far, the party has focused its attention on slimming down federal health care, education, science and labor programs, perhaps by billions of dollars. But some Republicans also have pitched a deeper examination of entitlements, which account for much of the government’s annual spending—and reflect some of the greatest looming fiscal challenges facing the United States.

In recent days, a group of GOP lawmakers has called for the creation of special panels that might recommend changes to Social Security and Medicare, which face genuine solvency issues that could result in benefit cuts within the next decade. Others in the party have resurfaced more detailed plans to cut costs, including by raising the Social Security retirement age to 70, targeting younger Americans who have yet to obtain federal benefits.

NOTE: It’s pretty clear communists/globalists will be outright opposed to any entitlement reform, and even some Republicans will be hesitant.

Conservatives may have forced McCarthy to give in to their demands, but they are still vastly outnumbered in the House, and particularly in the full Congress.

It will be up to McCarthy to take those conservative demands and negotiate with the communists/globalists and the RINOs—and even Obiden—in a way that makes as many people as possible accepting of any changes that may come.

Final thoughts: We’re not just talking fiscal health of the nation being in danger here. How McCarthy chooses to navigate these treacherous waters will reflect upon his Speakership going forward. Will he be lumped with Paul Ryan or Newt Gingrich?
