For the younger folks out there who are following the debt ceiling "crisis", this happens nearly every time the budget needs to be passed.
This is just Kabuki Theater so they can distract attention from what they're actually spending the money on -- like all the corrupt giveaways to their cronies. Or the fact that US just killed one million of their own citizens during the pandemic.

Happens almost every time, just ignore the theatrics and focus on the real issues.

Kabuki Theater = "...refers to an event that is designed to create the appearance of conflict or of an uncertain outcome, when in fact the actors have worked together to determine the outcome beforehand." (wikipedia)
