The Republicans have yet to release a budget but their debt limit plan proposes $4.5 trillion in cuts, including student loan forgiveness.

The worst US House Speaker in history happens to be GOP leader Kevin McCarthy. His "Limit, Save, Grow Act" would return discretionary spending to Fiscal Year 2022 levels, limit the growth of spending to 1 percent a year, and limit other government spending. These cuts would be tied to a $1.5 trillion increase of the debt ceiling.

Whether an individual consumer, business owner, community leader, elected or appointed official, if you are still opposed to higher minimum wages then you are just plain STUPID, don't care, and certainly DO NOT understand the engine that drives the US economy.

If you want to be a PARROT, instead of a PATRIOT, go ahead, keep "parroting" those talking points about the devastating effects a higher minimum wage would have on the economy that your political party, chamber of commerce, or other conflicted and the self-serving source is shoving down your throat!

The costly 20-year war in Afghanistan finally ends as the final American military cargo plane flies out of the city of Kabul.

War what was it good for? Killing Americans and Afghans as well as wasting USA taxpayers' funds on foreign soil instead of investing in our depleted infrastructure. The next time the US is attached, the military should respond and move on. It is very clear the USA can afford President Biden’s recommended investments at home. Take a look at how much American tax dollars were spent on the war.
