McConnell writes a new letter telling Biden that “in light of Senator Schumer’s hysterics” in his speech last night, “I will not be a party to any future effort to mitigate the consequences of Democratic mismanagement”—says they mustn’t “ask for my help” again on debt limit. https://t.co/VFgufZkkJY — PolitiTweet.org

One GOP leadership aide says it's not only about the filibuster—that McConnell also believes this deal he struck helps the party focus on criticizing Biden's agenda without having to talk about paying bills or defaulting. https://t.co/ftb3hZnPHJ — PolitiTweet.org

Mitch McConnell backed down in the debt limit fight because, according to Republican aides and senators, he feared there would be too much pressure on Manchin and Sinema to nuke the filibuster to avoid a global economic meltdown. https://t.co/ftb3hZnPHJ — PolitiTweet.org

New Dem Coalition theory is to focus on a few programs, do them well, strip away a future Congress’s ability to let them expire. Progressives say Dems should create a bunch of popular benefits and be happy to fight Republicans in elections to extend them. https://t.co/xxWWc2e6aZ — PolitiTweet.org

This isn’t about a policy dispute. Both parties want to spend more money (Dems on domestic programs, Republicans & some Dems on military), which requires a higher debt limit. No demand for spending cuts. No demand to raise taxes to balance the books. It’s about paying bills. — PolitiTweet.org

Hearing the palpable hatred of the debt limit in the Senate halls, it’s hard not to see the Trump era as a missed opportunity for both parties to abolish it. He writes a tweet calling it stupid, says it had to go to MAGA, Republicans move on; Dems happy to never deal w/ it again. — PolitiTweet.org
