There'll be people that like they'll DM me and be like, "You see what you see what your boy's doing? You voted for this." I'm like, "I voted for none of this. He's doing the exact opposite of everything I voted for. I want him to stop the wars. He's funding them. I want him to shrink spending, reduce the budget. He's increasing it." It's the MAGA morning after, the MAGA walk of shame, whatever you want to call it. Hi again, everybody. It's 5:00 in the East.There's that saying, don't fight the hands that fee ...

Core Viewpoint - The OBBB Act represents a significant step towards tightening eligibility for transfer payments, reflecting Trump's commitment to reducing government spending and promoting work among Americans rather than reliance on welfare [1][11]. Summary by Sections OBBB Act Details - Trump's determination to cut spending is evident in the OBBB Act, which aims to address the projected $40 trillion deficit over the next decade by focusing on marginal deficit changes under the "Current Policy" baseline [3]. - The overall tax reduction scale over ten years is approximately $1.5 trillion, with personal tax cuts amounting to about $420 billion and corporate tax deductions around $285 billion [5]. Key Spending Areas - Significant reductions in broad healthcare (Medicaid), social security (SNAP), and IRA subsidies are projected, totaling $1.08 trillion, $114 billion, and $540 billion respectively over ten years [6]. Political Implications - The OBBB Act is characterized by "deficit front-loading," indicating a shift in policy focus from expanding coverage to prioritizing eligibility verification [8][14]. - Trump's approach to spending cuts does not favor red or swing states but applies uniformly, potentially impacting support in swing states due to stricter SNAP eligibility requirements [15]. Implementation Timeline - The tightening of Medicaid and SNAP eligibility requirements is set to begin in October 2026, with adjustments to IRA subsidies occurring within the year [18]. Broader Economic Impact - The act aims to encourage work among the eligible population, countering the perception of welfare dependency, and is seen as a corrective measure against policies perceived as enabling laziness [11][13].

Cash Patel and Pam Bondi's admission that there's nothing there. Well, they don't want to hear it. Quote ...
