Actually the debt limit was exceeded in August 2019, when it was $16.6 trillion, the last time YOU VOTED TO SUSPEND IT, under McConnell's instructions. About $10 trillion has been added to the national debt WITH YOUR VOTE since then, plus $2 trillion without it last spring.

I hate this game, but if I'm picking NBA dissidents, Kyrie Irving, who questions whether the earth is really round and tells fans to "do their own research", does not rank as high as Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, who's done research & questioned systemic racism since before Glen was born. pic.twitter.com/faobCAJvyb
