After the budget deal was announced, McCarthy was crowing and went on the attack. Biden and Jeffries? Quiet and reserved. What’s really going on with this? If the deal is good for Democrats, why not shout it from the rafters? My analysis in today’s piece. statuskuo.substack.com/p/spin-cycle?sd=pf

@jaykuo I think you are all giving the Democrats far too much credit. There should have been no deal in the first place. Biden has no need to negotiate, he has the 14th amendment. I think this whole thing is a catastrophe of farcical incompetence, and I hope the whole thing gets shot down. If the Democrats can pass a clean debt statute, then fine, but the debt statute is simply unconstitutional.

@BrianHigginsClassicalGuitar @jaykuo while it’s not great to negotiate over paying bills we’ve already agreed to, we did have budget negotiations looming and this addresses those issues. Concessions were going to be required as Dems lost control of the house. Seems a good deal
