White House Claims GOP Debt Plan Will Give Kids Asthma and ‘Literally Melt Bones' (VIDEO)

As President Biden refuses to negotiate with House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) to raise the debt ceiling, the White House seems to have decided to relegate Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre to bargaining duty, and she did not ease off the hyperbole (read: false claims) she’s known for.

According to Jean-Pierre in Friday’s White House press briefing, Biden’s new executive order to make “climate justice” — another meaningless buzzword that attempts to put a shiny green veneer on Marxist policies — the “DNA” of his administration and a priority for every agency is a stark contrast with the GOP debt ceiling plan that includes a repeal of Democrats’ falsely named “Inflation Reduction Act.”

With a White House slide behind her to show just how very, very real her “facts” are, Jean-Pierre claimed that, “while President Biden is fighting to clean up toxic pollution and lower costs through [the] Clean Energy Tax Credit, Speaker McCarthy unveiled a ransom notes holding our economy hostage.”

She continued by slamming the GOP plan to raise the debt ceiling and avoid default while rolling spending back to 2022 levels as “a 320-page plan to kill jobs, fill our cities with smog, and give asthma to our children.” She must have forgotten to mention that it’s also 320 pages more than Biden’s non-existent counter offer.

Jean-Pierre continued, saying “the proposal would repeal the Inflation Reduction Act’s Green Energy Tax Credit, sending thousands of jobs back to China [and] it would make it easier for oil companies to use toxic chemicals that cause severe burns, damage people’s eyes, and quite literally melt bones.” How measured.
