Rep. Burlison UNLEASHED: Slams Reckless Government Spending at Oversight Hearing

In a heated oversight hearing, Representative Burlison took to the floor to deliver a scathing rebuke of the current state of U.S. government spending. With the national debt now towering at an unprecedented $36 trillion, Burlison highlighted the dire financial straits facing the nation, emphasizing the urgent need for fiscal responsibility and efficiency in government operations.

He started his critique by pointing out the elephant in the room: the colossal amount of interest payments on the national debt, which now exceeds spending in any other single category, including defense or social services. This interest, he argued, is not just a number but a significant drain on resources that could otherwise be used to improve American lives through better infrastructure, education, healthcare, and other critical areas.
