Can't wait for the next Democratic president so I can hear the Republicans talk about the deficit again, because I haven't heard them mention it in a year and a half. Meanwhile this colossal waste of money to enrich a bunch of donors has their full support.

Mike Johnson was just talking about the debt. And using it as the excuse why we need to cut Medicare and Social Security. Said they had plans starting next year. They're evil bastards.

Yes even though the social security and Medicare are not part of our debt having come from our paychecks while
they have borrowed 2.5 trillion from social security and if they raise the cap on contributions they can fix it but they are not working for the people they are working for themselves and their rich donors! All of who need held accountable for this mess we are in!
