Trump's reconciliation bill would cause the poorest 10% of Americans to experience a 4% decrease in their household resources, while the richest 10% would see up to a 4% increase in theirs as a result of the bill’s massive cuts to crucial welfare programs, combined with tax cuts for the rich.
Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” Redistributes Wealth From the Poor to the Rich

None of what you saw today was normal.

Shame on those Democrats and 'liberal media' journalists who helped normalize it.

A narcissistic insurrectionist using neo-Nazi rhetoric, who should have been disqualified from running, who should have been tried & convicted long ago, is now president again.

Our political leaders have no moral grounds to stand on, and this will forever be a stain on their legacies (not like they had much to stand on before). Instead of doing everything in our power to stop genocide, they choose to sanction the one body that is.
