Moody’s Ratings downgraded the United States’ credit rating, as the country’s debt soars and interest rates remain high. The downgrade, from the highest rating to one notch below, comes as the president’s budget bill suffered a blow in Congress.

I thought we were supposed to saving money… ya know, cut fraud, waste and abuse…DOGE? When are poor people going to realize they are being exploited by the Republican Party?

Donald Trump added more to the federal debt in one term than any other president in history and we weren’t even at war. I think you selected the wrong candidate for fiscal responsibility. Considering we all have eyes and can see the useless out of control spending by the administration.

What do you expect from Trump's greatest claims to fame that include; a Convicted Felon, had Six Bankruptcies, Accused of Rape, a Sexual Assaulter, 15+ Failed Businesses, 2 Divorces +where's Melania, is a Blowtard=Blowhard+Dotard, is a Narcissist/Sociopath, 'A Chronic Failure', a Habitual Liar.

It's only the Republicans that don't see the problem? The rest of us are pist off @ the 🍊 💩. May he / them never rest in peace, for what he/they have dished out to others. Let it happen unto him/ them, and may he/they be repayed 100 fold and make it happen yesterday. Thank you. A'men

Why the hell they didn’t set it lower, I don’t know. Tariffs at the whim of a demented old man stuck in his 1950s childhood, destruction of trade alliances, destabilization of the nation as a safe investment zone, the rise of BRICS and losing dollar hegemony…USA is a poor financial risk.

It's also traditionally happens before a country turns towards to a totalitarian government and violence is in the cards I believe most people around the world understand America is about to erupt into another revolution we almost have to unless we want to live like Russia and many others not me

I don't normally agree with Senator Rand Paul. But the DOGE cuts of essential services and the Republicans' Billionaires budget does nothing but substantially increase the deficit. So, in just 5 months, the US is worse off with Trump than it was in the previous 4 years. The pain is just beginning

If that bill is passed into law, there will likely be another credit downgrade, based on the administration's complete lack of fiscal responsibility.

Similar for the UK Moody's downgraded the UK 7 times under 14 years of Conservative governments

The UK had a aaa rating for 35 years, then dropped 7 times under the Tories 31/03/1978 - Aaa 13/02/2012 - Aaa Negative 22/02/2013 - Aa1 24/06/2016 - Aa1 Negative (EU ref) 22/09/2017 - Aa2 08/11/2019 - Aa2 Negative 16/10/2020 - Aa3 21/10/2022 - Aa3 Negative (Trussonomics) cc @kateduguid.bsky.social

The conservatives on this committee want Medicaid cuts to begin immediately, not 2029, cutting off 13.7 million low income Americans. Idiot. This anti Medicaid crusade amounts to political suicide. And to top it off Rep. Clyde wants to attach a Ryder lifting restrictions on silencers on handguns.

Oh they are fucking twisting themselves into pretzels to build an offset for their rich buddies. The only way to get the 800 billion they want to slash is from Medicaid. There is no math they can take that does not end in gutting it. They are going for it.

They are quietly trying to include a $4 trillion increase in the federal debt limit in their current spending bill. The same GOP that threatened to shut down the government last time we needed to raise the debt limit b/c Biden.

Americans how much more do WE THE PEOPLE have to ENDURE under STEVEN MILLER REGIME!! Now the city on the shining HILL was down graded. Baby boomers, Racist people in our great country FUCK YOU SELFISH BITCHES! Can y’all woke ur asses UP⬇️

The GOP are taking our country down with their stupidity. How many rich folks are going to die because they didn't get a monster tax cut? Now do the math of kids and seniors who can't get food or medical care in this country due to the GOP cuts. They're monsters.

To my Republican colleagues defending the indefensible: There will come a day when Donald Trump is gone, but your dishonor will remain. -Cheney! You can't defend the indefensible - anything you say sounds self-serving and hypocritical.- Abbott

NICE GOING DONALD JACKASS TRUMP!! YOU did this. YOU!!! Congrats. Working on bankrupting the U.S. like you did your casinos (WHO the F does that??)...how many failed businesses?? WHY DON'T YOU RETURN YOUR WHARTON DIPLOMA...YOU DISGRACE IT EVERY TIME YOU OPEN YOUR PIE HOLE!

Now let me see if understand this. Moodys downgrades America’s credit rating, so that’s good right? Because Trump is telling us how great his beautiful economic policies are and no one’s seen anything like it before.

When a 34-time felon operates criminal enterprises from the White House deports innocent human beings to gulags in El Salvador, and African countries like Libya; while well coming family members of world wide drug cartel into America...

It’s really concerning because the downgrade could impact everyday Americans. From mortgage Rates to students loans. This means higher costs across the board for borrowing, including homes, cars, and credit cards.

Is "Congress" "considering" a bill that would add to the deficit? OR........., Republicans in Congress are proposing a bill that will add trillions to the deficit focusing on tax breaks for the wealthy and cuts to health care and food assistance to the poor. There-I fixed it for you.
