Extreme Left Warns of ‘Huge Backlash…in the Streets’ if Joe Biden Negotiates Any Budget Cuts

Wendell Husebø 23 May 2023

The extreme left raised alarm over President Joe Biden negotiating spending cuts to the federal budget with House Republicans during talks to raise the debt ceiling.

Although the White House claimed Biden would not negotiate with Republicans on reducing wasteful spending, the administration engaged with House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) on spending cuts, an idea that enraged the far left.

Extreme-left Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) warned Tuesday that any cuts to wasteful spending, including obsolete pandemic funding, would receive a backlash in the streets.

“I think there would be a huge backlash from our entire House democratic caucus, certainly the progressives — but also in the streets,” she told CNN.

Jayapal tried to couch her statement by pinning Biden to the previously passed reckless spending that fueled systemic inflation.

“It’s important we don’t take steps back from the very strong agenda that president himself shepherd and led over the past two years,” she said.

Backlash in the streets over budget cuts; something that many of those in the streets wouldn't even have a clue as to what the debt ceiling is even about.  Mob rule once again?

That's right...

SOSDD.

This stopped being a threat long ago.

There's nothing from stopping the Progressive from giving away all their worldly wealth to the Biden admin.

Instead of taking away my stuff, how about Progressives start donating their own stuff?

I hate being a piggy bank for Limousine Liberal Largesse.

This is why despite thinking Trump was a clown for Jan. 6, it never really bothered me.  Because we all know the Dems were pushing those street riots in 2020, and the clear message was "you better not re-elect Trump or the riots are going to get much, much worse."  There were all sorts of references to the likelihood of violence if Trump won, so I don't really care much about the left's claims that Jan. 6 was a "threat to democracy".  They'd already crossed that particular Rubicon.
