SEAN HANNITY (HOST): Speaker Johnson has been meeting with these ideological factions. If you look at, you know, what the plan is, the first bill would fund the government until January 19, including appropriations for agriculture, military construction, veterans affairs, energy, water. The second bill would include the other appropriations bills. The bills will stop the omnibus altogether.
...
You have 12 appropriations that should be passed at least by the end of -- and hopefully passed -- before the end of the fiscal year, previous year. Again, ending September 30. But, you know, otherwise, you end up with a CR -- continuing resolution. Democrats almost always want what they call a clean CR.
What does a clean CR mean? You keep spending at current levels. Well, if you keep spending at current levels, that means the $2 trillion that Joe Biden put on the national debt in the last fiscal year alone would continue. And that's obviously unsustainable. And Moody's is confirming that.
