Political Figures Clash Over Economic Solutions and Presidential Plans.

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre snapped at a reporter who asked why President Biden was heading to Camp David as the country faces a debt meltdown in just eight days. Negotiators remain deadlocked on negotiating a debt ceiling deal, and markets plunged amid fears of U.S. default. Despite her harsh words, Jean-Pierre seemed to say that progress was being made. The Treasury Department has warned the government that it could run out of money as soon as June 1, and any deal would have to be passed by Congress before then.
