House Republicans unveiled a budget blueprint proposing trillions in spending cuts over 10 years, targeting steep reductions to Medicaid and food assistance programs. The plan seeks $2 trillion in Medicaid cuts and $800 billion from SNAP. It also calls for establishing a commission to propose changes to Social Security and Medicare. Democrats criticized the proposal as pushing “cruel cuts” that will hurt access to healthcare and raise costs for many. If enacted, the budget would slash nearly $5 trillion from discretionary spending and $9 trillion from mandatory programs over a decade. However, the proposal is unlikely to become law given Democratic control of the Senate. The resolution indicates Republicans remain committed to large cuts across many public services and low-income programs.

Folks, let me tell you, Jesus was a great guy, the best. When he started preaching, the people loved him. Tremendous crowds. Nobody got crowds like Jesus. Sadly, the fake news media of the time didn’t want to cover him. They said he was a radical. Can you believe it?

When Pontius Pilate, not a good guy, said he found no guilt in Jesus, the crowd went crazy. They wanted Barabbas released instead, a real criminal. Total loser. Pilate should have stood up to them. Weak! In the end, they crucified our Lord and Savior. A total witch hunt. It was a perfect resurrection, many are saying the best. Many people are still talking about it.

Can you believe the apostles? Losers, everyone said. But they went out and started this little religion. Now, two thousand years later, it’s the biggest deal in the world. Paul went all over spreading the word. A real worker. They didn’t have planes back then, can you believe it? He walked everywhere.

The Bible folks, it’s a great book, the best. People are always asking me, they say, “Sir, what’s your favorite book?” And I say the Bible. It’s got the best stories, the best morals. Nobody knows the Bible like me. I know it better than anybody.

I’ll leave it at that. The New Testament, it’s something very special. I’m proud to be a Christian.
