The bill would make it easier to hide the records of the corrupt January 6 committee\u2014which accomplished nothing for the American people and hid security failures that happened that day. This bill would also give Congress a pay increase while many Americans are struggling this Christmas.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/new.thepinetree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/TrumpVance2024.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-186504\" src=\"https:\/\/new.thepinetree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/TrumpVance2024.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"320\" height=\"158\" srcset=\"https:\/\/new.thepinetree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/TrumpVance2024.png 1200w, https:\/\/new.thepinetree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/TrumpVance2024-300x148.png 300w, https:\/\/new.thepinetree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/TrumpVance2024-1024x505.png 1024w, https:\/\/new.thepinetree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/TrumpVance2024-768x379.png 768w, https:\/\/new.thepinetree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/TrumpVance2024-570x281.png 570w, https:\/\/new.thepinetree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/TrumpVance2024-701x346.png 701w, https:\/\/new.thepinetree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/TrumpVance2024-1067x526.png 1067w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 320px) 100vw, 320px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Increasing the debt ceiling is not great but we\u2019d rather do it on Biden\u2019s watch. If Democrats won\u2019t cooperate on the debt ceiling now, what makes anyone think they would do it in June during our administration? Let\u2019s have this debate now. And we should pass a streamlined spending bill that doesn\u2019t give Chuck Schumer and the Democrats everything they want.<\/p>\n<p>Republicans want to support our farmers, pay for disaster relief, and set our country up for success in 2025. The only way to do that is with a temporary funding bill WITHOUT DEMOCRAT GIVEAWAYS combined with an increase in the debt ceiling. Anything else is a betrayal of our country.<\/p>\n<p>Republicans must GET SMART and TOUGH. If Democrats threaten to shut down the government unless we give them everything they want, then CALL THEIR BLUFF. It is Schumer and Biden who are holding up aid to our farmers and disaster relief.<\/p>\n<p>THIS CHAOS WOULD NOT BE HAPPENING IF WE HAD A REAL PRESIDENT.
