Trumpโ€™s โ€œOne Big Beautiful Billโ€ provides more than $1.5 trillion in tax cuts for the top 5 percent of Americans, the Center for American Progress found.โ€
How many MAGA supporters are going to benefit from this?
Not a lot I suspect.

His "concept" of a Healthcare Plan is finally revealed. It involves eliminating the Insurance Industry & people purchasing their OWN, MUCH BETTER, HEALTHCARE. Unrelated, note his obsessive envy of Obama, historically rated 1 of our finest presidents, who he still believes was born in Kenya.

MPsโ€ฆ Ragingly racist and prejudiced MPsโ€ฆ making money from X.
Lowe. Farage. Tice. Anderson.
If ever people say they speak for them, remind them of this. No. They do not. They speak for themselves. They speak for their bank accounts. Thereโ€™s money to be made from keeping people fearful and angry.

California โ€“ this Election Day, vote yes on Prop 50.

Californiaโ€™s Prop 50 says that if Republicans are going to abuse the system to try and hang onto power, weโ€™re going to counteract that abuse and create a level playing field in the midterm elections.

Make a plan to vote yes on Prop 50.

The top three things Jesus was on about were feeding the hungry, healing the sick, and welcoming the stranger. Rich men have convinced so-called Christians to starve the hungry, gut health care, and deport the stranger to enrich themselves. Itโ€™s astoundingly anti-Christ.

I canโ€™t understand why America would rather pay so much rather than everyone pay to make health care free at the point need.
Everyday I love the UK - except for Farage and the other racist twats.

I am up close looking at the camera wearing a blue and green checked jumper with pink hair. Bruno is just behind me at the back wearing the same blue and green checked jumper whilst he is taking a number two on grass. He is pictured from behind squatting pre poop.

LOCAL GOVERNMENT
Spend on Union flags defended
Reform UK-led Nottinghamshire
County Council has defended plans to spend ยฃ75,000 on purchasing Union flags.
More than 150 flags in 82 locations will be displayed.
But opposition politicians questioned if the expenditure was a good use of public money.
Sam Smith, Conservative leader of the opposition, said:
"To spend ยฃ75,000 of taxpayers' money on flags seems a bit ridiculous."
Labour MP for Mansfield, Steve Yemm, said: "My constituents will be appalled."


REFORM UK
Doge' unit fails to carry out audits
Reform UK's so-called "Doge" unit has carried out no audit work in the councils it won control of nearly six months ago.
The party vowed swingeing efficiency cuts to council budgets, in the mould of Elon Musk's US Department of Government Efficiency, after gaining control of nine local authorities across England in May.
Deputy party leader Richard Tice told the Financial Times it was never the "intention to audit them, because audits are expensive".

Heyโ€ฆ but come onโ€ฆ audits - where you find out what your budgets are, what money is being spent and how much you have left - are expensiveโ€ฆ and only something proper grownups do.

Reform just wants racist bunting and to hell with constituents and cost.

Sorry @theipaper.com but WHY is this guy talking to us about what will make the UK poorer? He was happy to grenade our economy twiceโ€ฆ
Brexit and then his batshit budget with Truss.
He should be in political oblivion for the mess he made and the price we all have to pay for his partyโ€™s failures.
