[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]House Republicans are preparing to hold world economy hostage for political gain. Backed by Speaker McCarthy, the emboldened Far-Right "Freedom Caucus" plan to hold up raising the Debt Ceiling - which they raised 3 times under Trump - unless demands are met. [/quote] What are their demands?[/quote] 20% cut to discretionary spending, but excluding defense from any cuts. That means closer to 50% cuts everywhere else to get to their 20% threshold which will never happen. [/quote] That means defense is 60% of the budget.[/quote] Defense plus VA is half of the budget.
