FOX Business anchor Maria Bartiromo warned on Fox News Radio's "The Brian Kilmeade Show" on Wednesday that U.S. debt and inflation will "soar" due to Democrat-led spending bills. "I think that the Republicans got rolled over once again by the Democrats," she told host Brian Kilmeade regarding the Senate passage of the infrastructure spending bill. But the rare showing of bipartisanship was short-lived Tuesday, as Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., quickly pivoted to advancing a massive $3.5 trillion budget bill. Bartiromo told Kilmeade on Wednesday that "honesty in Washington" is needed on the price tag of the spending bill. Bartiromo then added that the budget blueprint is "actually going to be much more expensive than $3.5 trillion" and that will, in turn, cause U.S. debt and inflation to "soar."
