As we speak, Trump’s GOP toadies in the World’s Most Deliberative Body (a.k.a. the U.S. Senate) are trying to push through what Chicago radio host Edwin Eisendrath and Lincoln Square Executive Editor believe is the worst legislation they’ve seen in their lifetimes.
It’s Trump’s budget reconciliation bill (what we call the MAGA Murder Budget around here). And it’s worse than you think.
“This bill turns Project 2025 into the law of the land,” Edwin says. “This bill is class warfare by billionaires against everyone else. It is a bill that locks in a police state and gives Donald Trump the keys to the jail.”
Trump's Budget Bill Puts Project 2025 into Law. It's a Tyrant's Dream Come True.
Social media is not real life. Nothing made that point more clearly last week than the Musk-Trump breakup. Even the New York Times thought it was worth putting their nasty Twitter posts in print — as if their meanness,…
There are massive cuts to health care, food stamps, scientific research, and so much more. And the legislation is also a huge giveaway to the mega-rich.
“[It] says to billionaires: ‘We are going to take money from the rest of the country for you,” Edwin says. “And just picture this, right? This week, we saw Jeff Bezos and 90 of his best friends in their private jets fly to Venice, Italy, and take over that beautiful city for his own wedding, right? These tax cuts mean we taxpayers will pay for his wedding — which is insane. It's disgusting.”
