So they didn’t raise the debt ceiling after all. They suspended it “temporarily” … 😂 “U.S. President Joe Biden on Sunday finalized a budget agreement with House Speaker Kevin McCarthy to suspend the $31.4 trillion debt ceiling until Jan. 1, 2025, and said the deal was ready to move to Congress for a vote.” https://www.reuters.com/world/us/mccarthys-next-challenge-sell-debt-ceiling-deal-congress-2023-05-28/

Oh wait they are literally removing the debt ceiling limit temporarily till 2025? As in unlimited spending for the next 1.5 years. This didn't click in my head because it would so outrageously irresponsible.
