On 5/8/2023, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre commented on the issue of the debt ceiling, calling on the Republicans to stop creating a crisis as the ceiling had been increased 78 times already since the 1960s. “We should not default. We have never been a deadbeat nation … House Republicans are manufacturing a crisis. They should get back to regular order,” Jean-Pierre told reporters during a daily press briefing.
Karine Jean-Pierre Claims “There’s No Disconnect” Between Biden’s Priorities And The American People.
On 5/8/2023, in response to questions from Fox News correspondent Jacqui Heinrich, Press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said “There’s no disconnect, and there’s no calling out, as you always say, does not disconnect.

Karine Jean-Pierre Bizarrely Accuses House Republicans Of “Manufacturing A Crisis” On Debt Limit.
Kelly, we’ve been very clear. I look, uh, there shouldn’t be negotiations on the debt, on the debt limit. This is something that they should get to regular order and get to work on. We should not have House Republicans manufacturing a crisis on something that has been done 78 times since 1960. This is their constitutional duty. Congress must act. That’s what the president’s going to make very clear with the leaders tomorrow. Congress must avoid default without conditions, without conditions.
Karine Jean-Pierre Says 5 Times In 30 Secs Biden Will Be “Clear” At Tomorrow’s Debt Limit Meeting.
The president’s going to be as clear as he’s been these last several months, as clear as I’ve been, as clear as other Administration has been, members of the Administration has been, which is they need to do their job. They need to get this done on behalf of the American people and do their jobs. And does he think that he can successfully convince Kevin McCarthy to change his position in this meeting where they’re going to have a conversation? The president’s going to make himself very clear, as he’s done for several several months now, since almost the beginning of this year, and he’s going to be really clear about it.
President Joe Biden scheduled a meeting with Congressional leaders tomorrow after the market closes to discuss increasing the debt ceiling on a bipartisan basis. Congress has time until the end of the month to pass legislation raising the debt ceiling, or the government could face a default. Previously, Biden said he wasn’t considering invoking the 14th amendment to allow the government to continue operating in case of the deadline is passed without a deal.
