There Is No Crisis

Just a reminder that there is no debt ceiling crisis. There's a fake crisis started by Republicans and then embraced by the White House so that everyone gets to use the fake crisis to try to do unpopular things in such a way that nobody, in theory, actually gets the blame.

A few people need to show up in Congress in the middle of the night, cast a voice vote, and we can move on to the next fake crisis.

3. The crisis is that we're in the middle of the shock doctrine to give the

death blow to our social safety net - happily brought about by the right wingers and the WH.
