Looks like Trump's illegal #IranWar & #BigBeautifulBill broke the already broken bank: moneywise.com/news/economy... And he's depleted our military's armaments on his #Iran folly. Leaving #DOD to scramble prvt industry like auto manufacturers to maybe fill the hole & BTW leaving us very vulnerable.

‘A fiscal catastrophe’: The US...

RE: https://newsie.social/@servelan/116450959824071408

Federal News Network:

No 2027 pay raise for federal employees in the new spending bill or Trump's budget request.

Way to slap the people who do your work for you in the face.

Kinda like how Trump betrayed promise made to Afghan refugees, many of whom supported US troops in #Afghanistan at their own peril & that of their friends & families, by rescinding their visas & shipping them off to #Congo.

Looks like Trump's #IranWar & #BigBeautifulBill broke the bank.

Receiving the beautiful bill,
can end as a pretty darn chill:
When tanking some gas
the stations sharp claws,
just drain you with one single fill.

"Did Trump’s hatchet job on healthcare, education, food assistance, and other public services and egregious tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans deliver the prosperity and economic growth that he promised so effusively?

You’ll be just shocked to learn the answer is…no, of course not.

Time to log on."

Read the report for the rest of this sordid story.

"It’s been one year since the Republican Party rammed Donald Trump’s Big Awful Bill through Congress without a single Democratic vote, slashing taxes for the wealthy and gutting an array of popular public programs to pay for it."

GOP’s ‘One Big, Beautiful Bill’ is coming back to bite them

When Republicans passed the One Big, Beautiful Bill Act last summer, they were sure that it would be their silver bullet to win the midterms. Never mind the bill'...

Daily Kos
74.3% tax hike on people making under $15K. 20.6% on under $30K. Billionaires get a quarter of ALL tax cuts. Rep. Gomez asked: did you make a mistake? Answer: NO. 🤯

The so-called "Big Beautiful Bill" designed to take place after the election.

Unless we elect progressives — Democrat does not always mean progressive — You're going to need to pay attention to who you're voting for.

But unless we vote progressive, no one will undo that "Big Beautiful Bill". Instead, they will accept it, allow it, and tell you that you should be mad at the Conservative Republicans who put that in place.

That is the "gotcha" — That right there is why so many people feel like both parties are the same. Because at the end of the day, we still end up someplace we don't want to go. Conservative Democrats don't roll back the damage, but rather holdover what Conservative Republicans did so that you accept this is the new normal. Comparable to how once prices at a store go up, they never really truly return to how they once were.

You want real change and real accountability? Vote progressive.
