As the WSJ points out, the $3.5 trillion in spending is predicated on accounting tricks. The real cost is likely between $5 and $5.5 trillion. https://t.co/K1bm5bXR3K — PolitiTweet.org

Understand that today's talking point -- that a $3.5 trillion spending spree is "cost-free" -- is both a lie and also specifically designed by the Left and their media allies to pressure Republicans to support a debt ceiling increase. — PolitiTweet.org

The GOP point is that raising the debt ceiling without putting some limits on debt increases is incentivizing this spending spree. Democrats lie: "We're not raising the debt! This just shows that the debt ceiling debate is really about past debt!" — PolitiTweet.org
