This should be so alarming to everyone!

[norama]

I believe McCarthy, knows very well what he is doing to save AMERICA and It's People in General...

[davidmotyka]

A new administration will fix everything.Trump 24.

[markfregly]

The budget doesn't have to pass in a certain timeframe. Nothing happens if it doesn't

[vanitercraft]

Bring your bill to the floor for a vote if you have one.

[juliajames]

He got the KJP talking points down to a T!! They don't need the Senate, fool!

[azbdizzy]

Farrakhan is now mainstream. Amazing.

[cliffolander]

But he won't visit our southern border. What a fraud!

[VioletWings]

There should be a "Congressional Black Caucus" or a "Congressional Hispanic Caucus" nor any of race caucus. If there was a "Congressional White Caucus" people would probably be in an uproar. People need togetherness not separation or segregation based on race. We're all humans living this life together. We need unity not division!

[eduardopacheco]

It seems that he's talking to deaf people ...

[vhackney]

Hey Hakeem, if we don't do this we will be bankrupt. We will pay our bills.

[juliajames]

Ok y'all had a tax payer paid vacation we get it...what are you doing for US citizens??

[IRunUltra]

I remember reading on thomas pm Barnett Pentagon strategist saying everyone is working on the SAME protocols. So it is obvious bothside cannot make resolutions becouse both side are working together and gas lighting Americans.

[Greenacres]

You’d think he could talk without the talking points. Just talk not give memorized answers. I want to see the Republican bill .

[TheDigitalPillars]

Half these comments are troll bots.. 😅Games they play..

[tomcassidy]

hard to play down .... the kissing of the ring @ mar a largo

[lisafoy]

McCarthy needs to resign immediately 💥 How can he sleep at night.. 🙄

[txnetcop]

Jeffries gives new meaning to the word dumbass!

[commonsense_patriot]

We want to spend your money like drunken sailers and the Republicans won't let us. 😭
