I use to watch meet the Press yrs ago when it actually was very informative! Now LOL

[EntTab-jzqj]

This should have been taken care of months ago. And you shouldn't hide the bill until 1 week before Christmas and shock everyone with what's in the bill

[bryanscott]

Why don't you talk about the pay increase for Congress..

[StevemilesNet]

The Supreme Court's decision centers on Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. The provision disqualifies former government officials from holding office if they took an oath to support the Constitution but then betrayed it by engaging in an insurrection.

Great for Elon and Vivek to look into the bills and let people know! It is congress job to create a bill that make sense and not put so much “pork” into the bill! I understand it is a “tradition”! But as a regular person I love to see the politicians getting reality check and being said NO! For both REP and DEM! It’s time for a change

[gregoryfuzi]

I’m very much confused about this debt ceiling ? Who are we borrowing this money from ? China ? How can they be so wealthy to be dumping trillions of dollars on us! & when it comes to pay them back, & we obvious won’t be able to — what will they do ?
