How The Sausage Gets Made

President Joe Biden and House Speaker Kevin McCarthy met in the Oval Office on May 22, 2023 to discuss the debt ceiling. Here is a recording made at that meeting. 

McCarthy: Are you kidding? Pass that stupid debt ceiling bill? That's dumb!

Biden: That's 'cause you know it'll stick!

McCarthy: You're full of it!

Biden: Oh yeah?

McCarthy: Yeah!

Biden: Well I double-DOG-dare ya!

MSNBC: NOW it was serious. A double-dog-dare. What else was there but a "triple dare you"? And then, the coup de grace of all dares, the sinister triple-dog-dare.

Biden: I TRIPLE-dog-dare ya!

MSNBC: Biden created a slight breach of etiquette by skipping the triple dare and going right for the throat!

Sounds of egos clashing can be heard, then the soft whimpering of a House Speaker who had just walked into a trap. 

MSNBC: McCarthy's spine stiffened. His lips curled in a defiant sneer. There was no going back now.

 Schwartz: This is nuts. 

Biden: HAHAHA 

McCarthy: (scribbles can be heard) Stuck. Stuck! STUCK!! 

Biden: Geez, it really worked.

MSNBC: So, if you see Speaker McCarthy with his tongue stuck to a flagpole, you'll know why.
