At stake for republicans voting in favor of it. The bill is essentially a clean suspension of the debt ceiling for about 13 months. What they are basically voting is if you are someone who in a republican primary contest, there are already arguments being made that republicans essentially voted in favor of giving a blank check for more government borrowing for a little more than the next year. It is the kind of thing that wont play well in republican primaries. Something thes republicans generally didnt want to have to vote for. They ultimately voted against it on the final passage. Observers of the senate know very well that this is not the where the final vote is the one that is really important. The vote that matters is the one with the 60 vote threshold. Which was, in this case,emanded by senator ted cruz the relative newcomer from texas that really wanted that threshold. Among the pieces you are writing, the worlds greatest blog, back toody that vote, you said the Democratic Leade

There are concerns about earnings in general, tech stocks. The one that is most concerning to me is a fear that Interest Rates are going up.

But the french president is trying to do something much harder than just generate buzz and goodwill. He is trying to stop donald trump from dividing the western alliance and disrupting the already turbulent middle east. Watching macron at work, flattering trump and politely disagreeing with him, all the while proposing compromised solutions is like watching a skilled dancer. It remains to be seen if he can pull it off, but thank goodness he is trying. On wednesday, macron told me and a sma
