.@SpeakerPelosi is mum on the idea of a discharge petition for debt limit: “Hopefully, there will be agreement that we reach in a responsible way to lift the debt ceiling.” Asked about last-ditch options like invoking 14A or minting the coin: “Let’s not go to the last ditch.” — PolitiTweet.org

Former @SpeakerPelosi says GOP demands to attach mandatory spending cuts to a debt limit increase are a “non-starter.” “It’s almost silliness for Republicans in the House to be putting Medicare and Social Security on the table as a condition for lifting the debt ceiling.” — PolitiTweet.org

More @PressSec on debt limit: "We should be dealing with the debt ceiling without—without conditions. It is important. We're not going to negotiate on this." "This is the basic, the basic duties of Congress, to deal with this issue." "This should not be a political football." — PolitiTweet.org

.@PressSec on debt ceiling demands: "This is just another attempt by congressional Republicans to force unpopular cuts on programs critical to seniors, the middle class and working families.

To underscore: The debt ceiling is about whether Congress allows the United States to borrow to pay bills that Congress has already racked up. https://t.co/0Xl5AWwmEv — PolitiTweet.org

In other words, if lawmakers want to use a discharge petition to raise the debt limit they'd have to (1) convince GOP leaders to add more legislative days to the calendar, or (2) write a bill in the next few weeks that has 218 votes in the House and 60 in the Senate. Good luck. — PolitiTweet.org

REALITY CHECK on a "discharge petition" for debt limit: Let's assume a bill gets 218 + 60 votes. It must be referred to committee and freeze there for 30 legislative days, then floor for 7 leg. days. 37 legislative days from now = MID-MAY. Weeks before Treasury's deadline. — PolitiTweet.org

A few centrist House Republicans say default must not happen, but they're joining McCarthy in insisting that Biden negotiate on conservative policy add-ons to lift the debt ceiling. Something's got to give. Treasury's expected deadline: "early June" https://t.co/0Xl5AWwmEv — PolitiTweet.org

In a memorable moment of the 2020 campaign, Trump tried to resolve this contradiction by arguing that unnamed people in “dark shadows” were controlling Biden and also “controlling the streets.” Laura Ingraham, who was interviewing him, seemed mystified. https://t.co/8JnesUV9Zt https://t.co/ZD9KFfDq6A — PolitiTweet.org

This tension has been at the heart of the Trump/GOP critique of Biden since he began running in 2019 — and years later it persists. Hard to be a doddering old fool and a nefarious revolutionary at the same time. — PolitiTweet.org
