Speaker mccarthy has yet to hear from the president after passing his debt bill which he previewed right here last week. no, we re the only ones in washington that are actually putting a responsible plan out that will raise the debt limit. think about it, more than 80 days it s been since i sat down with the president on february 1st to negotiate, to work through this, and he s ignored it. he weakens us, his overspending maria: coming up, texas senate ted cruz on what happens to the debt ceiling bill when it reaches the senate. plus, cruz s take on the activists going after the supreme court with attackses on justice clarence thomas as well. then, bank records suggest suggest a compromised president as america awaits a response joe beaden to china s biden to china s provocation, a surveillance balloon seven ising military secrets to beijing in real i m the, a covid-19 cover-up, chinese police stations and years of intellectual property theft all met with little response from joe
