Johnson confirms 'discussions' on tying wildfire aid to debt limit Speaker Mike Johnson told reporters one option on the table is making a new tranche of disaster relief funding for the California wildfires conditional on agreeing to raise the debt ceiling.

Mike Johnson just threatened to potentially extort California by adding “conditions” to wildfire disaster relief aid.

He said Republicans might attach unrelated things to the funding, like Trump’s demand to raise the debt ceiling.

I have five good books on my bedside table, waiting for me. I noticed there’s a book club at the library called “No Shelf Control”! I think I’ll look into that!
