WASHINGTON, DC – Statement from Facts First USA President David Brock on Speaker McCarthy’s debt ceiling remarks at the New York Stock Exchange:
“Kevin McCarthy is continuing to risk imploding our entire economy by not raising the debt ceiling because he wasted his first 100 days cutting a corrupt bargain to become Speaker and letting MAGA extremists run the show. He’s proven the only debt he cares about is the one he owes Marjorie Taylor Greene and the rest of the lawless Trump loyalists.
“If McCarthy wants a reminder about why House Republicans are getting nothing done, he just needs to take a quick subway ride from Wall St. to where Jim Jordan and the insurrection protection goon squad are holding a sham hearing with January 6th truthers.”
