Biden Commends McCarthy for Debt Ceiling Deal

“President Biden on Friday commended Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) for his role in reaching an agreement on the debt ceiling, highlighting a rare moment of bipartisanship between the White House and the GOP-controlled House,” The Hill reports.

Said Biden: “I want to commend Speaker McCarthy. You know, he and I and our teams, we were able to get along and get things done.”

He added: “We were straightforward with one another, completely honest with one another, respectful of one another. Both sides operated in good faith, both sides kept their word.”
