Rejoice lefties Speaker Johnson’s new spending bill

[Harry Hondo]

Musk is relishing his role as the hatchet man. Remains to be seen how long he's allowed to keep it up -- Trump can't be happy with all the references to President-elect Elon and President Musk that are being bandied about.

What can Trump do? He’s the richest man on the planet and he just paid around $200M to the campaign and wants this power in return. Trump just got ‘Eloned’ and he’s forever in debt to him now.

This country will be run by an oligarch for the next 4 years because the republicans in congress are the biggest wimps around and will do whatever he wants. They couldn’t say no to Trump and they won’t either to a man who has no political position and no idea how Washington works. It’ll be a disaster.

So spend the same amount of money....and suspend the debt ceiling for two years. And it goes from a terrible deal to a great deal.

Lololol.

Ctrl F - search it. You're relying on Twitter Twits that didn't read it either and are making up what's in it. This is why you're so ignorant about so many things.

Trump isn't even in office yet and the massive stupidity has already begun. Going after Chip Roy, threatening to primary him... Because he's... Uh...too conservative....

Just people attempting to turn Trump against Musk. Trump won’t fall for that nonsense.

Don't underestimate how petty, thin skinned, and vindictive Trump can be. He got their money and was reelected. Musk and Vivek are there to serve Trump, and that's a one way deal. The alliance can end at the drop of a Truth post.

That was quick. We have some disobedient Republicans in the House.

Republicans have managed to do it again. They have made it so they will be blamed, correctly this time, for a government shutdown if it happens.

This is either the coolest or the lamest thing about Vivek:

While in college, he performed Eminem covers and libertarian-themed rap music under the stage name and alter ego "Da Vek"

Can you even comprehend what a dumb take this is? This man does not care about right or wrong or what's good for the country. They had a bipartisan bill that President Musk killed.

He only cares about blame. What a pathetic man.

I would love to see Trump simply order the executive to ignore the debt ceiling. I wanted to see Obama try that.

They’re going to monetize the debt. The slim chance of ever balancing the budget went out the window with Covid.

People wonder why inflation is surging

 

[Cortez88]

The House budget raises the debt by $4T. Despite several significant cuts, it’s the tax cuts that are the big driver attributing $4.5T in debt. While I don’t believe we can tax our way out of the hole, we need to be aware that these cuts have real costs.

So mass layoffs of middle class govt employees to reduce costs and then a tax cut package that benefits the top end... All while blowing out the deficit. And zero reform to SS/Medicare.


In 2034, we estimate the bottom 40 percent of households would see tax increases, on average, with after tax income falling by 0.6 percent for the bottom quintile and by 0.4 percent for taxpayers in the 20th to 40th percentile. Middle income taxpayers would see very slight tax cuts on average, with after-tax income increasing by 0.3 percent in 2034. The top two quintiles would see the largest increases in after-tax income, ranging from 1.4 percent for taxpayers in the 60th to 80th percentile to 3.1 percent for the top quintile. Increases for the top 1 percent are even larger, reaching 4.1 percent in 2034.

Trump’s Tax and Tariff Ideas: Details & Analysis

We estimate Trump’s proposed tariffs and partial retaliation from all trading partners would together offset more than two-thirds of the long-run economic benefit of his proposed tax cuts.
