Nick Reed PODCAST 05.03.23 - Debt Ceiling & Lyin' Biden
Hour 1 - Good Wednesday morning! Here's what Nick Reed covers this hour: Several Senate Republicans said they think House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) is in a new position of power in debt ceiling negotiations after the White House and Democrats “underestimated” his ability to narrowly pass a debt ceiling bill last week. White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on Tuesday tried to reposition President Joe Biden’s recent decision to negotiate on raising the debt ceiling with House Republicans as a summit between opposing “visions.” President Biden falsely claimed in two recent tweets that House Republicans want to cut veterans’ benefits, as he prepares to negotiate with them over the debt ceiling. White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre claimed earlier this week that illegal migration is DOWN by over 90% because of policies that President Biden has implemented. Just days later, the White House announced they would be sending 1,500 active-duty troops to the border to help when Title 42 is lifted.
