Republicans moving ahead with Trump's 'big' bill of tax breaks and spending cuts amid tariff uproar

After a long wait, the Senate is launching action on President Donald Trump’s ”“big, beautiful bill” of tax breaks and spending cuts.

More than a month after House Republicans surprised Washington by advancing their framework for Trump’s $4.5 trillion in tax breaks and $2 trillion in spending cuts, Senate Republicans voted Thursday to start working on their version. The largely party-line vote, 52-48, sets the stage for a potential Senate all-nighter Friday spilling into the weekend.

This bill is a straight up assault on poor people. They haven't arrested droves of people who are systemically defrauding medicaid, like all these illegals they claim that are on it. I used to be on it and you have to renew your case every year. I had to submit bank account information, I had to list what the people I was living with did for a living and even some information they asked for that I didn't even know or could answer, like how much money they make. They let you know at least when I applied for it that they actively monitor how much money you make because there is a threshold of how much you're allowed to make before booting you off of it or not renewing you when the new year arrives.

They're selling it as kicking off illegals when in reality, its just punching poor people in the face. This will probably end up in court when all kinda people lose coverage.

Someone uploaded all 816 pages to ChatGPT and asked what this bill was...

welp...

These outcomes were detailed in Project2025 but too many people wouldn't take the time to understand and consider what was going to happen. And many of those same people remain in denial even now.

President Donald Trump returned to the White House this January with a flurry of sweeping orders – some of which may impact Americans’ credit scores.

Trump and his allies are set on enacting his “One Big Beautiful Bill,” which would add trillions to the country’s already sizable deficit and drive up interest rates, producing large-scale macroeconomic repercussions.

Financial markets have already warned of the rising debt, with Moody’s cutting its pristine “Aaa” U.S. credit rating, which could take even further hits if the deficit continues to rise.


To help pay for the bill, Republicans are looking to make cuts to Medicaid and food assistance programs, without which, more Americans are likely to go into medical debt.

Some 15 million Americans with medical debtmay suffer even greater consequences of Trump’s policies after his administration paused a new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau rule that would ban the inclusion of medical debt on credit reports. As of now, medical debt can be included in credit scores and a significant amount of medical bills can drag down a credit score.

A lower credit score means a person appears to be a bigger risk to a lender, such as a bank. That could lead to higher interest rates on loans, such as for a car or a home……..

Trump’s policies could have a major impact on your credit score. Here’s how

President Donald Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill” would likely add trillions to the country’s deficit and drive up interest rates.
