Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) spoke against President Joe Biden compromising with Republicans on spending caps and a debt ceiling increase, contending that the move would cause backlash among lawmakers and the broader public.
The debt ceiling, a statute established by Congress that prevents the government from spending beyond a predetermined national debt limit of $31.4 trillion, exceeded the threshold earlier this year. Republicans desire to join an increase in the debt ceiling with spending caps,

Sounds like another "Summer of Love" headed our way. This time we'll be ready, willing and able to terminate the threat.

Once again held hostage by "the mob". That is democracy-NOT a democratic REPUBLIC. So we have to live in fear of what (they pay) the mob to threaten. Live in fear or vote the elites out. (however the dems cheating has to be adressed).

Insurrection? I doubt it since 60-70% of the country wants spending cuts.

If the debt continues to spiral out of control, their will be a taxpayer led backlash against lawmakers.
Works both ways, Chiquita.

Clearly, we have been warned. Give them what they want or they will burn the country down.

Typical of the Liberal mind, spending other people's money but never their own.
When will it stop? When and only when we FINALLY get TERM LIMITS in both Houses!!!

When I saw her make that statement, I thought it sounded like a terroristic threat. But then me says to self, "Don't be silly. Only white parents at school board meetings make terroristic threats."

BLM and ANTIFA will come out for some more summer fun? What will they protest about? Since the cuts were Democrat spending, they should only riot in Democrat run cities. Democrat spending led to this Democrat unwillingness to negotiate may lead to default. Protest against Democrats.

Only the parasite class would be upset if govt spending were reduced. For the rest of us, it would be met only by applause.,

There's plenty of tax money to make the debt payments so default isn't going to happen unless Biden wants it to happen.

It’s going to be interesting to see if the “big guy” will be able to stand up against the leftist, progressive, and socialist factions that are the majority of DC Democrats these days who are now threatening to “go to the streets”.

So, congresspersons Sid the Sloth Jayapal from Ice Age and Donkey Cortez from Shrek want so much to make sure they get more of OPM. That those two knuckleheads would say something so stupid and reckless is the reason why my beloved country is in the state it's in.

So, if there is backlash and violence in the street, I guess the FBI will be part of it, instigating violence and after it is all over, the participants will he hunted down by the FBI/DOJ and held in a gulag like the J6 prisoners are. And, the great FBI will also investigate these two and bring charges against them for instigating riots -- right.
