re: #237 Targetpractice

Might be rising on news that the GOP leadership’s considering a short-term CR/debt ceiling bill in exchange for talks. The same bill that has Erick and the rest of the howler monkeys of the far-right going nuts.

Bloomberg is reporting this too:

U.S. Stocks Surge as Lawmakers Move to End Debt Impasse

Benchmark equity indexes surged as House Republican leaders embraced a possible short-term deal to avoid default. The lawmakers will this morning present to members a proposal for a six-week debt-limit increase that will not include other policy demands, a congressional aide familiar with the matter told Bloomberg News.

But as Kragar often says, trusting the GOP at this point isn’t “optimism”, it’s weapons-grade stupidity.
