Will be interesting to see the next Dem president reverse Trump's EO's, and then claim he is powerless to stop people from crossing the border. Amazing the media let them get away with that lie. But, the media is a party operation; professional journalism is dead.

to approve it.
But this was a big and necessary step.
I don’t always agree with you but I appreciate the discussion.
Both sides are totally exaggerating the alleged cuts.
Governments never ever cut... because no one can get elected by reducing ANYONE'S benefits.
Musk is probably right. .........
screwed.
Sadly, lots of spending compromises needed… but it was critical & Dems knew it.
The wanted to see Trump fail, and they would have gladly accepted the US economy tanking to do it.
Now we can work on supercharging the economy and generating massive tax revenue to go with the tariff money and DOGE cuts of waste/abuse to address the deficit.
I. Just wish all the green boondoggle spending had been obliterated as well as ANY spending on illegals other than to send them back
Coke dealers and high-end escorts are also celebrating the news.
provisions. Recall that the House Bill only passed by 1 vote...

From the article:
[Washington has not exactly won a reputation for fiscal discipline over the last few decades, as both Republicans and Democrats passed bills that have, bit by bit, degraded the nation’s finances.
But the legislation that Republicans passed through the Senate on Tuesday stands apart in its harm to the budget, analysts say. Not only did an initial analysis show it adding at least $3.3 trillion to the nation’s debt over the next 10 years — making it among the most expensive bills in a generation — but it would also reduce the amount of tax revenue the country collects for decades. Such a shortfall could begin a seismic shift in the nation’s fiscal trajectory and raise the risk of a debt crisis.
The threat is a reflection of the fact that Senate Republicans have voted to make tax cuts that the party first passed in 2017 a permanent feature of the tax code. That means the growth in the country’s debt, already at levels economists find alarming, would only accelerate as the bill shaves down the country’s main source of money.
“We are looking at the most expensive piece of legislation probably since the 1960s,” said Jessica Riedl, a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, a conservative think tank. “The danger is that Congress is piling trillions of new borrowing on top of deficits that are already leaping.”]

Even better, Hayseed and Hillbilly America will directly feel the detrimental impact of their 2024 votes for Trump.
Of course the stupidest people here would applaud this
