One Big Beautiful Bill on Target for July 4

I need a Constitutional Lawyer here to tell me how an unelected Senate Parliamentarian has essentially taken power away from the Senate by pushing for fewer cuts in this BBB? How can our entire budget be up to ONE unelected person?

 

It’s entertainment for me. I can’t watch The View so I rely on you to remind me how truly ridiculous the left is and how for you; EVERYTHING revolves around Orange Man Bad.

And to think, this latest exchange started with me giving you a compliment and you responding with an insult

 

1) The Parliamentarian interprets the Senate’s own rules.
2) It’s advisory and non-binding
3) Stop blaming people for doing their jobs simply because it ends with a result you don’t like.

 

I'm sorry (for you) that I figure so prominently in your life. Perhaps you should work on that somehow?

Now if you'll refrain from addressing me, I'm sure I'm not the only one who would appreciate that.


Maybe instead you can give us another explanation of why your political hero, Donald J. Trump, isn't responsible for the $3T of deficit spending his crummy bill will saddle us with, how it's all the fault of Congress.

 

Blaming? Who am I "blaming?" What I am questioning is the power of an unelected official... pointing that FACT out is NOT BLAMING.

 

Elon Musk says hi. But that's all good because he bought and paid for his influence with dear leader. LOL

 

It’s inherent in your post. You are blaming her for getting in the way of what the Republicans are trying to put in a budget bill against Senate rules. She hasn’t “taken power away” and budget isn’t up to one person, much less her. This wouldn’t even be a story if the Republicans had only included appropriate items in the bill per Senate rules.

 

Wow - looks like a new estimate has the Trump Debt Increase Bill adding $4.2 to $4.8 trillion to the debt!


Senate Proposes $4.2 Trillion of Tax Cuts

Note: the Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) has put together a current law score of the Senate Finance Committee tax proposals, which roughly match our numbers in this analysis.

On a current law basis, we estimate the Senate-proposed tax cuts would increase deficits by $4.2 trillion – nearly $500 billion above the House’s equivalent proposals. That figure would rise to $4.8 trillion if temporary tax cuts in the bill were ultimately made permanent.

It’s to be expected from him

 

I kinda hope they do pass this turd of a bill. Its effects will be hitting people pretty hard by November 2026. It sucks, but you get what you vote for.

 

She wants the Senate to take out the provision in the BBB Senate bill that would defund sanctuary cities, and she wants to take out the provision in the BBB Senate bill that would defund SNAP for illegal aliens.

 

I’m sure you’ll accept your tax break just like everyone else.
