Also, At an average reading speed of a 10th grader, the OBBBA 1000 pages with single spacing should take at minimum 30 hours with 250 words-per-minute, otherwise, up to 60 hours at 200 words-per-minute. More than the estimated 12 hours.

The minimum that can be done. It should be live streamed, and recorded in full. Hopefully that will give us time for us all to learn what it's all in it. I would still strongly suggest VOTE NO!

Who and where are the future bold and progressive President and leaders that can now exercise vast unilateral power with unchecked authority due to the Supreme Court ruling that lower federal courts cannot block executive actions nationwide unless individual plaintiffs sue? Let's turn this around!

Expect:
1. Martial Federalism: A De Facto Authoritarian Regime Under the Guise of Security
- Any form of dissent is criminalized under executive emergency statutes.

2. Escalated Provocation Abroad to Justify Crackdowns at Home
- War serves as a smokescreen for consolidating authoritarian rule.

Or, something more dark, sinister, and oppressive is about to be unleashed by a tyrannical government.

Let’s hope for the first. But history suggests the second, unless action is taken now.

Barricades around the WH are not just a physical symbol. They are the manifestation of a government that fears its own people. And when governments fear their people more than the people fear their government, it means liberty is about to rise…

The Constitution was written with checks and balances to prevent the rise of tyranny. If both the Legislative and Judicial branches have ceded their roles, the last check is the People, how fast they mobilize, resist, document, and preserve truth. Be prepared. Be warned.

Reading the Bill Aloud
β€’ A Senator could read the entire OBBBA bill word-for-word as a tactic.
β€’ This draws media attention, forces public awareness, and pressures leadership.

β€’ Members can request the bill be read aloud if unanimous consent to waive that is not granted β€” but this can be overridden by the majority.

Filibuster in the Senate

Senators can filibuster by speaking at length, including reading the full bill.

House Representatives

What can be done in the House?
β€’ Motion to recommit: A last-minute tactic to delay or amend.
β€’ Raising points of order: To challenge unread or last-minute provisions.
β€’ Unanimous consent requests or motions to adjourn as procedural stalling tactics.

It should never be rushed if a bill restructures civil liberties, power balances, or federal authority. Every tool, including public pressure, should be used to slow it down and force proper deliberation.

- Legislation Scorecards
Require CBO or GAO analysis before vote

To ensure significant bills like OBBBA are understood and not rushed, Congress must enact procedural reforms: mandatory reading periods, transparency rules, and stricter controls on emergency rule waivers.

Actions not to pass OBBBA:

- β€œ72-Hour Rule”
Require a minimum of 72 hours for public access before voting

- Bill Reading Requirement
Force clerks to read every bill aloud unless waived

- Committee to Transparency
Require committee drafts and revisions be public

"WE'VE ARRANGED A society based on science and technology, in which nobody understands anything about science technology. And this combustible mixture of ignorance and power, sooner or later, is going to blow up in our faces. Who is running the science and technology in a democracy if the people don't know anything about it?"
"Science is more than a body of knowledge, it's a way of thinking. A way of skeptically interrogating the universe with a fine understanding of human fallibility. If we are not able to ask skeptical questions, to interrogate those who tell us that something is true, to be skeptical of those in authority, then we're up for grabs for the next charlatan, political or religious, who comes ambling along."

I think a lot about what Carl Sagan said in one of his final interviews.

When Trump said "I do not know" it is a dereliction of duty and unfitness for office, under the Constitution.

This moment ought to trigger serious political, legal, and civic reckoning.

Just like the gangs designated as terrorist organizations because their members cause terror in communities, Turning Point seems to be one of the largest terrorist gangs and organizations in the country.
Is this the type of extreme criminal that Trump will send immediately to El Salvador?

Unfortunately, none of the people who caused and did this that have money will be in jail. It's a hopeful idea, that has been proven false everytime in the U.S. Usually those with money, may get a slap on the wrists at max, but they don't get their deserved legal punishment.

With the current events and actions of this congressional, executive, and judicial administration, nobody can't deny that the constitution is merely words on paper without any enforcement, since nobody is prosecuting nor facing criminal indictments and impeachment for its violations and abuses.

This is an unjust world. Violence and abuse is happening everywhere at the helm of government and administrations that are despicable and heinous. Don't be surprised when history repeats itself and those at the top tumble down like many times before. The world goes around.

I remember when supposedly there was due process. Precisely, based on this due process Trump was able to be free to run and currently be POTUS. But, in the world of thieves there is no honor nor grace, just vile corruption and disgusting rhetoric.

Remind us, who voted for a criminal and abuser?

Unsubstantiated allegations serve only to undermine the integrity of our legal and governmental institutions.
Evidenciary process for validation:

-Congressional Oversight

-Judicial Review

-Department of Justice (DOJ) Investigation

-Public and Media Scrutiny

-POTUS isn't the law and executioner

While the concerns raised about the use of the autopen merit attention, any declarations regarding the invalidity of pardons must be grounded in verified evidence and adjudicated through proper legal procedures.
