"Once again Bret Baier steps up to the plate and holds this administration’s feet to the fire over their dishonest arguments about getting a budget passed in Congress. Carney seeks to blame Republicans, but Baier won’t let him get away with it, citing both that Obama’s budget was voted on in the House (and unanimously failed) AND that the Senate won’t even put it up for a vote. Carney dodges, but Baier continues to grill him, noting the Senate has the 51 votes needed to pass it. After 3 minutes, Baier finally decides they need to move on to another point.

Senator Mike Lee highlights the failure of the Democratic leadership in Congress and the White House.
“The inability of the President and Democratic leadership in the Senate to produce and pass a budget for the American people in nearly three years is a stunning failure,” Sen. Lee said. “We have gone 1000 days without a blueprint for America’s priorities, and it has led to more irresponsible spending and record-setting annual deficits. Future generations will pay through higher taxes, greater inflation, and diminished prosperity.”
