Just in case you aren't motivated enough to get out and vote this November, here is a reminder of what the "Big Beautiful Bill" already passed by the GOP led Congress will cut after the mid-terms. They think we are too dumb to notice that they scheduled the worst impact for after the midterms.

Have Republican members of Congress finally reached their breaking point with Donald Trump? Could the proposed $1.776 billion slush fund be the straw that finally breaks the camel’s back?

The reality is this: Congressional Republicans are unlikely to rein in Trump until the political risk of continuing to blindly follow him becomes greater than the risk of standing up to him. That only happens when constituents make clear they’ve had enough.

Yesterday may have offered a glimpse of a shift. The House recessed a day early after failing to pass the reconciliation bill. Why? Because enough Republicans appear to be breaking ranks — and crossing the aisle — to make a difference.

Is this the beginning of a turning point, or just a temporary crack in the wall?

We have plenty of words we can use to describe our outrage at the fact that Trump
just stole $1.776 billion of our tax dollars to use however he pleases with zero oversight, but we have to type them like this #%^ #** #. Heather Cox Richardson explains it in detail without cursing.

A photo of the bilateral meeting between Xi and Trump. Not a single woman at the table. Disgraceful, but this is where we are now. Get mad and then take action.
