Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) announced an “agreement in principle” with Joe Biden on a deal to raise the federal debt ceiling Saturday night.
"This bill secures the border from President Biden's record, crossings, record carelessness, and record chaos," said Speaker McCarthy. "We identified the problem. Rather than ignoring it, we listened to the American people. And then we took action."
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy told CNBC’s Squawk Box earlier this week that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis should “sit down and negotiate” with Disney and “solve the problem.”
Hillary Clinton criticizes House Republicans for using the debt ceiling as a political weapon, warning that it undermines the U.S.'s global credibility and plays into the hands of adversaries like Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping, and warns of the potential danger of playing games with the debt ceiling to the U.S. dollar's pre-eminent position in the global economy.
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy endorses the idea of using the U.S. military to combat Mexican drug cartels and supports designating them as foreign terrorist organizations in an exclusive interview with Breitbart News.
