US President Joe Biden discussed the US debt dispute with Republican House Speaker Kevin McCarthy in White, but they disagreed on simple issues. Meanwhile, the White House is accusing Republicans of taking the economy “hostage” to secure politically motivated budget concessions.
McCarthy is an American politician from the Republican Party, born in January 1965 in Bakersfield, California. He completed his business administration studies at California State University. He was then elected to the U.S. House of Representatives in 2007 for the first time, and in 2019 became House Republican Minority Leader.
