GOP Debt Ceiling Bill; Lousy GDP Number; Retired U.S. Generals Employed by Saudis

It's Chad Benson's last day sitting in for Greg, and he and Jim are pleasantly surprised that the House GOP held together on a debt ceiling bill, and there are some rumblings that Kevin McCarthy might be better at being speaker than anybody expected.

Today also brings a pretty lousy U.S. GDP number, raising questions of just how the U.S. economy is performing.

Finally, while it's not unusual for former government officials to make a bundle in the private sector, it's less than idea to see tetired Army Gen. Keith Alexander, who led the National Security Agency, making $700,000 on a contract advising the Saudi Arabian government.
