🌎 I got up yesterday morning and turned on the TV to see if I could see a radar shot. Weather, ya know? On every channel it was the Pope.

I can comfortably criticize the GOP budget bill.

It decreases resources for the poorest Americans by 2% in the short term, and 4% by 2033 as additional GOP cuts take place, increases resources for the wealthiest Americans, increases the budget by 3.8 trillion, takes healthcare benefits from 15 million Americans, cuts roughly 700 million from Medicaid, and 267 billion from SNAP benefits, all things that I can comfortably criticize.

You are repeating Racheal Maddox's blog.

I’m quoting the Congressional Budget Office. Believe it or not I’m not a Maddow fan, so no I’m quoting her blog or anything she has said. You don’t like when I lump you in with the right wing, but you repeatedly have no issue with lumping me into the entire left wing. To be clear I’m not a leftist

This has a thing missing: truth.

I've talked with you about your "leanings" I have mentioned who you support. But, I've never "looped you in" with the left. This may not land right...you have a different perspective with your daughter. I appreciate, and respect, that.

Let's be honest here. Who can you loop me in with? Ya can't. It all goes back to something I said you you, or maybe it was @JoshB it's individuality

You clearly didn’t read any of the bill. That is cnn’s spewed version almost verbatim

I can comfortably loop you in with other conservatives in supporting the dude in the White House

I’m sure you’ll say the Congressional Budget Office didn’t read the bill either.

Josh Hawley (a hard right conservative) disagrees with the bill, suppose he didn’t read the bill either.

Here's where the jokes come in.

"We'll pass the bill and the read it later." Pelosi.

What part of projections escapes you?

What part of projections escapes you?

No projection

No projection

What are the facts based on then?

 

[ElephantStomp]

What are the facts based on then?

The Congressional budget office for one and the the bill second

It can't be facts if it hasn't happened yet. Their projection is that it will add to the deficit based on their mathematics.

@ElephantStomp,congrats!! I see where the face of the dim party, Rachael Levine, received an honorary degree from Smith College in Massachusetts. Let's hope that Sam Brinton can wrangle one from another socialist college/university. You dims are certainly in the know and getting all the awards.

Congrats I can see where the face of the right wing party doesn’t have a degree honorary or not

We are just patriots that love our country. I know you and the rest of your socialist friends/cohorts are proud of Rachael and tampon Tim!!

You’re aware that y’all on the right don’t have a monopoly on patriotism right? I know y’all like to fly the American flag, thin blue shit, and all that, but I promise you y’all arent the only patriots. I know you and the rest of your right wing cohorts are proud of a 34 time convicted felon, perpetrator of rioting at the Capital, and the known sexual assaulter

No projection

The CBO forecasts. That's not a projection? My friend, this is another case of you throwing shit at the wall and hoping we won't see or smell it while you are praying for cohesion.

The new budget that just passed through the House spells out over a trillion in spending cuts. That's a actual thing, not a projection/forecast from the CBO. (I want to say the number was one and a half trillion for the next fiscal year. I need to go look that back up to make sure.)

I'm going to set aside my reading comprehension abilities. I'm going to go with what you are saying: a combination of deficit and trillions with the CBO NOT projecting.

Instead, I'll go to the official CBO site and see what they have to say, eh?

The Congressional Budget Office regularly publishes reports presenting its baseline projections of what the federal budget and the economy would look like in the current year and over the next 10 years

In CBO’s projections, the federal budget deficit is $1.9 trillion this year, and federal debt rises to 118 percent of GDP in 2035. Economic growth slows and inflation declines over the next two years; both remain moderate after 2026., the federal budget deficit is $1.9 trillion this year and federal debt rises to 118 percent of GDP in 2035.

Proud of his policies and the “made up, change the law to get him” corruption of the Liarcrats do not matter. Ironic, though is that Leticia has lied and committed mortgage fraud. You know the dim playbook, Rules for Radicals, accuse others of what you’re doing. Rioting at capital? See Ray Epps and other govt provocateurs. I encourage you to follow the radicals, encourage them to ignore and ignite the truth, and be sure to take and promote the Covid jabs. In short, believe a lie and be damned.
