Voting against the full faith and credit of the United States is what you’d expect from the party of political sabotage

“The GOP’s war-like hostility drives the news. If you do not understand that, you do not understand American politics.”

John Stoehr

same source :

"Last night’s unanimous vote by the Senate Republicans against raising the debt ceiling (and against funding the government) should be seen in the context of sabotage. The party playing chicken with the full faith and credit of the United States is the same party undermining the national recovery from the covid pandemic, which is the same party tolerating insurgents who nearly brought down the republic, which is the same party eroding the rule of law, which is the same party welcoming interference by Russia, which is … so on and so forth."

@pimoore i think there is zero chance of it happening. The usual stuff - and we wonder why 'the people' have lost faith in the institutions.

That said - this one is peculiarly ornery, that I don’t have enough time to go on about at this point in time.
