Remember when RINO Speaker of the House said Democrats hated the debt deal he cut with Joe Biden? As it turns out, he got rolled. Hard. Democrats hated the deal so much that they outvoted Republicans in the House to get it passed with ease.
In total, nearly a third of the Republican caucus voted against the bill. It should have been more. McCarthy loyalists lined up to kiss the ring, but considering the minimal concessions Republicans got in exchange for suspending the debt limit for 19 months, it’s unfathomable that any conservative who voted for it actually liked what they saw.
As Senator Mike Lee noted:
The Biden-McCarthy Debt Expansion Act just passed the House. To those who thought this was a Republican bill, the numbers don’t lie: 165 Democrats voted for it, and only 149 Republicans joined them. Those voting against it included 71 heroic Republicans and only 46 Democrats.

Lee further predicted fallout for Republicans who supported it, posting, “Once the Biden-McCarthy deal is fully understood, it will be about as popular with Republican voters as Bud Light … purchased on sale at Target.”

It’s time for a motion to vacate.
Conservatives on Twitter noticed the odd vote counts.
More Democrats voted for this “historic conservative victory” than Republicans.
What a joke.

More Democrats voted for the debt deal disaster than Republicans – it's clear which party got more benefits from it.

More Democrats voted in favor of the "Fiscal Responsibility Act" than Republicans. That should tell you all you need to know about @SpeakerMcCarthy.

Yes, it’s time for a motion to vacate.
We could have used help from President Trump. One phone call to McCarthy, tell him to drop the deal. I believe he would have listened to President Trump and stood down.
There was a funny political cartoon out just today; Picture of McCarthy, scratching his head, looking confused and frustrated. Caption reads; Imagine being out negotiated by an 80+ year old dimensia patient.
For real, dude had one job. What a joke but it’s just like Ron Paul says; Lifetime bureaucrats are non partisan, they always agree to spend more of your money. Chris Rosinni where you at bro!? Ron, Chris, and Daniel, from Ron Pauls The Liberty Report nightly broadcast on youtube and rumble, the three of them could run this country far better than the gaggle of incompetent lunatics we have up there now.
