Report: White House Begging CEOs to Pressure Republicans to Cave on Debt Ceiling

Jordan Dixon-Hamilton 8 May 2023

President Joe Biden’s White House is begging CEOs to pressure Republicans to cave on the debt ceiling as Biden prepares to meet with congressional leaders this week to discuss the debt limit.

Biden will sit down with congressional leaders on Tuesday after months of ignoring House Republicans’ request to negotiate. Biden agreed to sit down for negotiations after House Republicans rallied behind Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) to support the Limit, Save, Grow Act, which would lift the debt ceiling through early next year and save the government an estimated $4.8 trillion over the next ten years.

However, Biden’s Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen is personally calling CEOs to urge them to put pressure on Republicans, according to Reuters.

Yellin is calling CEOs from the financial sector and the broader economy to warn them about the “dangerous consequences of the current brinkmanship,” one source told Reuters.

Wait...

Isn't Diamond and the other Large banking CEO's already in the dim pocket and PAC payrolls?

Big Financial is massively woke and an enemy of the GOP.  There's no reason for McCarthy to cave, unless he is ultimately stupid.
