Magaziner. “These reverse Robin Hoods on the Republican side who seek to steal from the working people to benefit the rich need to stop this craziness and end this thing today.” According to the U.S. Treasury Department, the debt ceiling could be breached as soon as June 1 if Congress fails to raise the debt limit. House Republicans have been threatening to allow the country to default unless funding is cut for programs that assist children, seniors and veterans. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T23:55:44Z |
