Lawmakers are struggling as the country is facing a $31.4 trillion debt. For the past two years President Biden and his fellow Democrats enjoyed having party control at taxpayers’ expense.

Fact: The Associated Press in Washington announced Amazon laying off 18,000 workers and Microsoft laying off 10,000, to name a few. A much-divided house could very well hurt the global economy, affecting millions of workers.

Fact: Republicans took 15 rounds of voting to pick Congressman Kevin McCarthy as House speaker. The next few months could be very critical for Speaker McCarthy, for he took a pledge that he would lower federal debt.

This is a good example where we the voters should have power to oust any politician who will say anything in order to remain in power. Career politicians seem to pay more attention to special interests than their constituents.

Our own President Biden is no exception. He is not being properly scrutinized for some hanky-panky, and that is no malarkey.
