    Tim Miller takes on the hypocrisy behind Washington’s deficit panic. After Elon Musk and Trump allies promised massive spending cuts and warned about “debt slavery,” federal spending kept climbing—and now the Iran war is burning through billions per day.

    Why do people keep swallowing what they say with apparent pleasure…?

  3. That’s because complaining about the debt was always performative for 99% of them.

    If it looks like the house flips this year we should start hearing again about how much of a crisis the national debt is by Christmas. Right after immigrant convoy season.

    That’s what they do every single time they’re in charge! It’s like some kind of spending „Groundhog Day“ where everyone just keeps repeating the same day.

  5. This has been happening for generations. The right will bitch and moan about spending… when dems are in power. The moment they have it, they spend like drunken sailors.

    Deficits only matter when republicans can stop dems from spending. They don’t matter when republicans can give shady no bid contracts to their buddies.

    This has been happening for my entire life and I’m 45. The GOP does not care about deficits or debts. They never have. 

    When Republicans pretend to care about something there is no requirement that we pretend to believe them.

    Yeah they starved kids to death to get money to kill people in their religious war.

  8. The GOP cares about 2 things: Access and Power. That’s it. There is nothing they would not support if it supplied those 2 things.

  9. It was always a political weapon to attack dems and progress.

    And once they bankrupt the country theyll make sure anyone cleaning up after them gets harassed daily about the deficit. Mmw

    They only care if the money is being used to better people’s lives.

  11. War is good and profitable.

    Health care, food, education, free elections are bad.

    Basic rubelican’s mantra.

    Because not for one second have they ever cared about debt, their sole goal in life is collect all money and resources for themselves.

    Republicans and the corrupt media only “care” about the debt when Democrats in charge.

  14. *YAWN*, the GOP has been the cheerleader creating the majority of the national debt for around 45 years, ever since Ronald Reagan was elected. Pretty much every claim of „fiscal conservatism“ from the GOP are massive lies, and have been so at least since then, if not before.

  15. Because the debt isn’t theirs they don’t care. They’re looting the coffers at every turn so inflation and the country’s debt is irrelevant to them.

    Elon Musk has been REAL quiet lately. The Epstein class really are world-class hypocrites.

  17. any minute now Elon’s DOGE AI will cut spending on cancer meds for bedridden children claiming it’ll make up the difference after hallucinating a few extra zeros in the ‚tax dollars saved‘ column

  18. That’s literally what republicans do every single time they are in power. 

  19. Redshirt_Welshy_Nooo on

    The Reagan regime created the deficit as we know it and every Republican regime since has ballooned it.

    I actually care about the debt and I deeply resent the GOP for how they’ve weaponized the issue and driven up the debt. We’re heading for deep social service cuts that are unavoidable due to their actions.

  21. And Democrats will have the biggest mess probably ever to clean up at every level…

  22. No but you see that debt is gonna come rolling back down once we plunder the entirety of Iran!!

    God, these fucking ghouls.

  23. theywereallmyfriends on

    They’ve always been full of shit. They are reprobate racists and bigots. Fiscal conservatism was a cudgel to take away from minorities.

  24. Because they never gave a shit about the budget or the debt. Just like they don’t give a shit about anything. They have no values.

  25. Captain-Nodnarb on

    Not a single person that is MAGA has any standards/convictions anymore. We need to find a way to take advantage of their stupidity somehow, for the good of the public, rather than hold on to any hope of changing it.
