ABC & CBS were in full meltdown mode on Thursday evening as their flagship evening newscasts ABC's World News Tonight and CBS Evening News acted like the end of the world was upon us if the U.S. debt ceiling wasn't raised without spending cuts, and focused their coverage on Republican demands instead of the intransigence of the Biden regime. 

On World News Tonight, anchor David Muir breathlessly reported that the Treasury Department is "launching what they call extraordinary measures to avoid a default." Muir made sure to inform viewers that "this is all over money that's already been spent." Which was his attempt to absolve the regime of any blame for recklessly wanting the debt ceiling raised without an attempt to get our fiscal house in order. 

Muir wants you to think it's just like paying off your credit card debt. When in reality it's like raising your credit limit to a million dollars on a $30,000 salary. Unsustainable. 

Congressional correspondent and rabid leftist Rachel Scott cried that the government consistently raising the debt limit is "something that Democrats and Republicans have worked together to do for the last 80 years."
