Sitting here on the Senate floor while one of my Republican colleagues solemnly warns us about the “trillions of dollars of debt” and how we must get our “fiscal house in order.” “Enough is enough,” he declares, as if he just discovered math. Which is rich, considering this same guy voted to pile on another $4 trillion in debt just two weeks ago. But sure, today he’s the patron saint of fiscal responsibility.

Your Congress piled on almost $10 trillion of national debt in just the past four years.

This is hilarious coming from #MarkKelly. During #Biden's 4 years, he added $8.4 trillion to our national debt. All on stuff, appropriations, budget increases you voted for and supported. You voted with Biden from the mid-90s to 98 percent of the time. So your self rightousness is "rich" considering you're the same liberal pawn who voted with #BidenHarris over 4 years to pile on $8.4 trillion to our national debt. Obviously introspection is not your forte. What an absolute fraud.

Increase in US national debt since Senator Mark Kelly took office Senator Mark Kelly took office on December 2, 2020. The national debt at that time was approximately $27.5 trillion. As of July 15, 2025, the national debt stands at $36.22 trillion. Therefore, the national debt has increased by approximately $8.72 trillionsince Senator Kelly took office ($36.22 trillion - $27.5 trillion

The CBO score was bullshit, riddled with false assumptions. Same as they did with the 3017 cuts. We had an actual fucking surplus last month for the first time in years . And you Assclowns ran $2 trillion annual deficits under Biden

Letting 20 million illegals into the country is draining our economy and its resources to support and now deport. What were the Democrats thinking 4 years ago. Not to mention child trafficking, Fentanyl, crime, and terrorism. Where were you when the border was wide open?
Replying to @SenMarkKelly
I don't remember you saying a single thing about that national debt when creepy Joe was in charge. Nancy was in charge of the purse when roughly 45% of the national debt was made law. Chuck has been there for all but a trillion dollars of the debt.

So you wanted more cuts than the Republicans? Or you wanted taxes to go up by a huge percentage and not just "millionaires and billionaires"? Which is it?

Mark you are gaslighting - again. Let me help you define "$4Trillion. That would be $400B annually (for 10years) of tax revenues you (the government) would not be able to "rob" from the middle class should the 2017 tax reduction bill be allowed to expire!

Wasn't it the Democrats that printed literally 20% of all money to ever exist in the history of the nation over the previous administration because "covid"? Yes it was. I don't agree with the spending but I'm not gonna listen to you sit and bitch when it was great when you sold us out under Biden and borrowed money from 50 years of people who haven't even been born yet over something that killed less people than the flu... If Harris won you would still be giving money away to all your donors and friends with the green new scam. I know of places that got those grants who just frivolously waste it on God knows what all because "global warming" while they take their jet back and fourth from their 5 beach front properties that according to you will be under water in 15 years. But they don't seem to worry about that.

They spit in the face of conservativism. They offer nothing but hatred and the erosion of our institutions. Marc Andreesen basically says the quiet part out loud and praised a book written by a Mussolini admirer I bet he gets the trains running on time like Caesar if given terrifying powers.

So besides making fun of your colleague who is working to make a tiny cut in the deficit, what is your answer to reducing the $2 trillion annual deficit and paying down the $37 trillion in debt? The mismanagement by you and your friends will leave our children and grandchildren with a bankrupted country.

Absolutely right! After passing that horrible bill that adds $4 TRILLION to the debt while cutting services, just to let billionaires have tax cuts, Republicans have no business pretending they care about the national debt.
