partnership. thank you so much. appreciate that reporting. we know you ll stay on top of it. with only five weeks remaining before the u.s. is expecting to reach its debt limit, we have some new reporting on how any of the ways that this could be could end, any way you split it, all options could look murky. sahil kapur has a byline on the story. some of the options your reporting shows, the different pathways on how this could all end. reporter: the clock is ticking and there is no clear path to a resolution in congress about the debt ceiling crisis, and when you look at the possible scenarios, you start to see the problems with each one of them. let s go through three of them. door number one is the president and speaker negotiate this out. it sounds simple, right? just sit down and talk. biden and mccarthy get in a room, work it out. it s anything but simple. the president doesn t see this as a policy negotiation. he sees it as a hostage
