If the current Continuing Resolution ends up passing through Congress, members of that body will get a pay increase (apparently helping push the country to $36 trillion in debt makes a politician worthy of a raise).

Today a CNN reporter asked Democrat Sen. Dick Durbin if members of Congress deserve a pay increase, and the Left are eating their own as evidenced by Durbin’s response:

After all CNN has done to help the Democrats push their preferred narratives, that’s the thanks they get from Durbin?
🚨The Dems are eating themselves alive:
CNN Reporter: “People look at the performance of Congress and say ‘Why should we give them more money?’”
Senator Durbin: “What about the media?… Half of your listeners are not there anymore and you’re still getting the same paycheck.” pic.twitter.com/m7k4q8euRG

Durbin crushing CNN off the top rope! Pass the popcorn!
Donald Trump’s election victory did this- another win.
They have officially turned on each other. The love between the two is starting to show cracks at the seams.

While we get a kick out of seeing CNN get booted around, Durbin’s also wrong considering what Congress has helped do to the country.
Dick Durbin says it’s a good thing there’s a pay raise for Congress in the spending bill.
Congress has less than 22% approval.
They should get a pay cut. pic.twitter.com/Ikyvp78k6e

Somebody ask that CNN reporter what he thinks of a possible congressional pay raise after Durbin’s slam!
