**From Michael A. Cohen, columnist for MSNBC and a senior fellow and co-director of the Afghanistan Assumptions Project at the Center for Strategic Studies at the Fletcher School, Tufts University:**
Early Wednesday, when most Americans were snuggled in their beds, Republicans in the House of Representatives were working hard to take away the health care of millions of Americans, blow a $3 trillion hole in the budget deficit and make the wealthiest people in America richer and the poorest Americans poorer.
If this sounds like hyperbole, it’s not. The GOP-controlled House Rules Committee convened at 1 a.m. Wednesday morning to discuss a bill that hasn’t been fully drafted and the provisions of which were still part of intense negotiations. Indeed, the real work on the legislation was happening behind closed doors as House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., tried to cobble together enough votes to pass something, anything, so he could meet his self-imposed deadline for a floor vote by Memorial Day. Late Wednesday, GOP leaders released yet more significant changes to the bill, and on Thursday morning the full House passed the bill by a single vote.
What we do know about the legislation the GOP is calling the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” is genuinely terrifying.

Republicans could shout from every rooftop what’s in this monstrosity and (not hyperbole) the vast majority of Americans (free-willed adults) will plug their ears, shout “LALALALALA”, and whine that they’re having to hear about PoLiTiCs in the first place.
Don’t believe me on vast majority? 31% voted MAGA and 38% didn’t vote at all. 69%. Vast majority. Free-willed adults. Many of them suburbanites who are well-educated and simply cannot be bothered.

May be a surprise but they even have a provision to remove the $200 NFA Tax Stamp on suppressor’s which is pretty sweet.
Edit: correction, it would appear the actual verbiage is intended to remove suppressors from NFA regulation entirely. If true then I change my assessment to this is really fucking sweet.
I hope America sees what the GOP is doing to them here. The GOP is going to blame it on minority gangs and satanic progressives, though.
wait until the consequences of this bill hit
it will get through the senate with probably more horror added
when the poor have nothing left to lose, watch out
and remember please that this is all on the gop and trump
fuck maga
fuck trump
fuck musk
2/3 of the country voted for this or didnt care enough to vote
this type of bill moving through our government in the dead of night is a loud and clarion warning that america is on life support
>If enacted, the bill would constitute the [largest transfer of wealth](https://x.com/BBKogan/status/1924998557599154477) from the needy to the wealthy in American history.
It’s no wonder, then, that Republicans were rushing this bill through while most Americans slept. If you were robbing the poor on behalf of the rich, you, too, would do it in the dead of night.
I’m waiting to hear from all the MAGA voters who voted for Trump three times now because they were supposedly experiencing „economic anxiety.“
You got lots of explaining to do, Lucy…
„Sec. 70302. Restriction of Funds
No court of the United States may use appropriated funds to enforce a contempt citation for failure to comply with an injunction or temporary restraining order if no security was given when the injunction or order was issued pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 65(c), whether issued prior to, on, or subsequent to the date of enactment of this section.“
Per 65(c) the US, its officers, and its agencies are not required to give security.
Or in other words- the courts have no power over the legislature or the President, the Constitution is a joke, no one has rights, do as thou wilt is the whole of the law.
Wonder how many Trump voters are on Medicaid. Since 7 out of the 10 states with the highest Medicaid enrollment all went to Trump, I’m going to guess quite a few.
You guys seem totally cooked tbh. I dont even know what you can do.
Wait wait don’t tell me. Because of what’s in it?
Remember these same asshats ran back to their districts with glee to talk about all the goodies in the Biden infrastructure bill. Fuck these corrupt bastards
why didn’t they put a social security work requirement in place?
Can we get the TLDR for the bill?
Well at least there’s now tons of coverage as to what is in the bill. Hopefully this will motivate people to reach out to their senators and tell them how disturbing the bill is, not to mention the political suicide committed by those who pass it
Something has changed alarmingly. Previously neither party would risk reelection and individual members would know brazen disregard of the constitution would see them lose their seat.
Not any more though, Republicans with vote rigging, gerrymandering and suppression measures somehow know they are free to do what the hell they want.
The bill
https://www.congress.gov/119/bills/hr1/BILLS-119hr1rh.pdf
Page 346 is the chip Medicare gender transition ban, if you’d like to read that. ACA change removing gender care is worded same enough I didn’t register changes.
Just below, page 352, has what appears to be the defunding of any abortion care facility, so a lot of places that grant reproductive care….basically bans reproductive care unless the care refuses abortion entirely….or hopefully I’m reading it wrong….
(Stopped skimming at page 400, will look more later….
Let’s not forget the part where they cut the balls off the federal courts, saying they can ignore contempt rulings.
Vote them out. All of them.
Can anyone explain how this is Bidens fault?
How badly it screws Americans, those of us left.
Guarantee all of their actions now are to ensure they can cancel/ stop future elections.
They know what they are doing is against the populace and if there is another election, they know they are fuvked.
The only action after that is 07141789.
So they can blame democrats later.
They are really good at this, and democrats need to be voted out and replaced with new blood that can counter this bullshit.
What the fuck is up with this timeline
They are fucking you in the arse and not even giving you the courtesy of a reach-around.
