Podcasts about debt limit

Kāinga Ora Chief executive Matt Crockett says the housing agency is setting a 12-week limit on how much rent debt a tenant can accumulate. Crockett spoke to Corin Dann.

January 22, 2025 ~ Yesterday the U.S. Treasury said it would employ measures to avoid hitting the debt limit. Patrick Anderson joins Kevin to discuss what measures they are taking.

Republicans whined about government spending during the entire four years of the Biden administration, and drove the country to the brink of a government shutdown more than half a dozen times over spending issues during the last 2 years. But now that Trump is coming back, they are suddenly demanding a $4 trillion increase in the debt limit - something they repeatedly refused to do for Biden. A farmer in Florida that voted for Donald Trump in the last election is warning that his crops will be left to rot in the fields if Trump follows through with his plans for mass deportations, according to what he told Bloomberg News. All over the country, farmers - many of whom voted for Trump - are sharing similar concerns about the man they put back into The White House, but those concerns are a day late at this point. They knew what they were voting for, they just didn't care at the time.Top Trump adviser Stephen Miller has a plan to prevent some of Trump's most disastrous and disturbing policies become the law of the land without getting much attention from his political opponents or the media. Miller says that the idea is to "flood the zone" by doing as much as humanly possible all at once, which won't give the media or critics enough time to be outraged by everything. His hope is that eventually everyone just gets tired and stops paying attention.More than a dozen of Donald Trump's cabinet picks are billionaires, and 26 of them have net worths well over $100 million, and others have spent decades working in politics. In spite of this, the corporate media continues to tell us that these people are "outsiders," when in reality, they are the elite that have ruled this country for far too long. These are not people who are going to "shake things up" or bring "change" to DC - they will consolidate power to line their pockets, as Farron explains.Text and and let us know your thoughts on today's stories!Subscribe to our YouTube channel to stay up to date on all of Farron's content: https://www.youtube.com/FarronBalancedFollow Farron on social media!

The latest plan would extend government funding into March and includes disaster relief and farming provisions, but does not include a suspension of the debt limit, which President-elect Donald Trump has been demanding that Republicans address. This was “Plan C” for GOP lawmakers. Trump torpedoed a bipartisan deal earlier this week, and then a Trump-backed plan that would have suspended the debt limit also failed in the House on Thursday.

Yesterday was one of the greatest days in the history of conservative media. Finally, we had everyone united behind blowing up a bad budget bill. Sadly, Trump came in and tossed an interception by demanding an even worse bill with no spending offsets and suspending the debt limit. I make the case for why that is a terrible idea and why it is a harbinger of things to come with spending in general and other issues in particular. We're joined by Freedom Caucus member Rep. Eric Burlison to discuss his ideas to push for enduring spending cuts. He is proposing to devolve the debt limit authority to state legislatures. This is a brilliant idea and the sort of innovative thinking that the base must demand from Trump.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Kia ora,Welcome to Friday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.And today we lead with news of deliberate chaos being constructed in Washington DC with a much higher prospect of a US Federal Government shutdown likely. Authorised funding expires later today / Friday, US time. Financial risks are sharply elevated today, and markets are pricing these in.Elsewhere, US jobless claims fell sharply last week and by more than can be accounted for by seasonal factors. There are now a bit less than 1.9 mln people on these benefits.The PhillyFed survey of factories in America's traditional rust belt turned very negative, the worst result since April 2023. Soft demand was behind this shift. Optimism about the future took a hit too.The Kansas City Fed's equivalent survey in its region wasn't so negative, but it wasn't positive either. Optimism was a bit better there however.American existing home sales in November rose, but to be fair it is still stuck in the very low range it has had post-pandemic which is even lower than the post-GFC range, and back to levels first seen in 1995. So the November rise in that perspective is kind of irrelevant, no matter what the industry peak body says.The US Conference Board leading index tracking rose in November. Higher building permits, high equity prices, rising average hours worked in manufacturing, and fewer initial jobless claims boosted the November result. But the December result will no doubt take a hit from the current Washington shenanigans.The final estimate for US Q3-2024 GDP raised the expansion to +3.1% and extending the good run they have had since mid-2022. The US economy delivered US$29.4 tln of economic activity in the past year, with the expansion of +US$1.4 tln and the most ever. And that describes what is at risk from bad policy.Elsewhere there were many central bank rate reviews.In Japan, the Bank of Japan held its key short-term interest rate unchanged at 0.25%, keeping it at the highest level since 2008. That was what financial markets expected. But the vote was split 8-1, with one board member wanting a +25 bps increase. Essentially they are waiting to see how destabilising the incoming American Administration will be. But the bank boss seems to have turned dovish in the circumstances, and that turn moved markets.In Taiwan, they kept their policy rate unchanged at 2%In the Philippines, they cut their rate by -25 bps to 5.75%.In Sweden, they cut by -25 bps to 2.5%.In Norway, they held at 4.5%.In England, they held unchanged at 4.75% with a split 6:3 vote with the dissenters wanting a cut. This is a pause as inflation starts to rise there again.In something of a surprise, Australian inflation expectations rose to 4.2% in December, ending their encouraging falls that started in September. It is not a result either the RBA or the Australian Treasury would have wanted.Container freight rates rose +8% last week but to be fair that was only because of a +26% rise in teh China-to-USWC route and a +17% rise in Chin-to-New York as traders raced to get ahead of the impending tariff threat. Other routes saw small declines. Bulk cargo rates fell another -7% last week to be less than half what they were a year ago and back to levels last seen in July 2023.Many mineral commodities are retreating in price in expectation 2025 will be tough, with copper down -2%.The UST 10yr yield is now at just on 4.59%, up a very sharp +19 bps from this time yesterday as markets digested the Fed's move and the deliberate mess being created by the incoming President.The price of gold will start today at US$2592/oz and down -US$42 from yesterday.Oil prices are down -US$2.50 to be just on US$69.50/bbl in the US while the international Brent price is now just under US$73.The Kiwi dollar starts today just on 56.5 USc and down -60 bps from yesterday. Against the Aussie we are down -40 bps to 90.3 AUc. Against the euro we are also down -10 bps to 54.5 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just on 67.1 to be down another -25 bps from yesterday at this time.The bitcoin price starts today at US$100,994 and down -3.1% from this time yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been high at +/- 3.1%.You can find links to the articles mentioned today in our show notes.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora. I'm David Chaston. And we will do this again on Monday.

To prevent the federal government from defaulting on its debt when it neared the debt limit in 2023, Congress voted to suspend the debt ceiling through this coming January 1. With that deadline looming, the decision of how to address national debt…

America's looming fiscal cliff is as unprecedented as it is staggering.  The legislation that most define Bidenomics – The American Rescue Plan, The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, and the (anything but) Inflation Reduction Act – are catalyzing the most rapid increase in America's national debt ever witnessed in a peacetime economy.

For the first time, it looks as though that may not happen, and the government could conceivably default on its obligations.

Unless officials in Washington strike an agreement to raise the limit, the U.S. could default on its debt as soon as June 1.

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy was able to narrowly pass a bill to temporarily raise the debt limit. But it was paired with spending cuts and policy changes to social programs that mean it's dead on arrival in the Democratic-held Senate. So what's next in the ongoing stalemate?This episode: political correspondent Susan Davis, congressional correspondent Deirdre Walsh, and senior political editor and correspondent Domenico Montanaro.This episode of the podcast was produced by Elena Moore.

Episode 2683: Blocking The Rise Of The Debt Limit

In January of this year the U.S. hit its maximum borrowing limit of 31.4 trillion dollars. Now the White House is demanding that Congress raise the debt ceiling and allow the administration to borrow more money. The GOP House says an agreement must include spending cuts. In this Sunday extra episode of Morning Wire we speak to a bipartisan expert about the importance of the debt limit. Genucel Skincare: Mother's Day Sale 70% off Most Popular Package + FREE Shipping at Genucel.com/WIRE 

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy unveiled his plan to lift the debt ceiling, but it aims to cut big parts of President Biden's agenda. Meantime, the Supreme Court punts a ruling on the Mifepristone abortion pill to Friday. And the state of gun violence in America, with yet another shooting tied to a seemingly innocent mistake. April Ryan, Yamiche Alcindor, Stuart Stevens, Michael Steele, Sarah Ellison, Jason Rosenbaum, Shaylee Ragar, and Alex Weprin join.

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy said today that “defaulting on our debt is not an option,” but neither he nor the White House shows signs of compromising. The last debt limit stalemates drove up the cost of government borrowing — and that’s happening again. Plus, what if you paid your taxes in cash, and what’s behind layoffs at Walmart and Best Buy?
