House Democrats on Tuesday evening passed a bill that would set up a process for a debt ceiling hike with a simple majority vote in the Senate.
This fast-track procedure that includes Medicare legislation will expire by January 16 and can only be used one time.
The bill passed the House 222-212 – with RINO Kinzinger being the only Republican to join with the Democrats. Just one House Republican voted for the deal cut by McConnell to create a new process to fast-track a debt ceiling hike and avert a default: Adam Kinzinger.

There is a provision in the package that waives PAYGO provisions.
“Democrats are sidestepping mandatory spending cuts under sequestration and eliminating those cuts.” Fox News Congress reporter Chad Pergram said. 1) As the House is prepping the debt ceiling bill, there is a provision in this package which waives so-called PAYGO (Pay as You Go) provisions. In other words, Democrats are sidestepping mandatory spending cuts under sequestration and eliminating those cuts. — Chad Pergram (@ChadPergram) December 8, 2021 The bill still needs 60 votes in the Senate to overcome procedural hurdles – at least 10 Republicans would have to join Democrats in voting for cloture.
This is where Mitch McConnell stepped in and helped the Democrats.
Recall, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell worked out a private deal with Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer to waive the filibuster to raise the debt ceiling.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
