       Debt Limit Talks Hit Snag as G.O.P. Declares a ‘Pause’ https://www.nytimes.com/2023/05/19/us/politics/debt-limit-gop-biden.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShareThey claim Democrats are being unreasonable. No. Republicans are by threatening to collapse the economy if they can’t enact cruelty they wouldn’t be able to any other way. Not passing a clean debt ceiling bill is unreasonable and dangerous. They passed it clean 3x under Trump. #DebtCeiling #GOPTerrorists #NYTimes

       There is no snag. There is no both sides to this article. It only lays out what Republicans want. The debt ceiling is for money already approved to be spent. It has nothing to do with the budget. It doesn’t explain why Republican demands are irresponsible and cruel. President Biden should invoke the 14th Amendment and just pay the bills.
