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.
its what jesus would do, after all
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.

Why can’t we cut military spending instead? It’s definitely going to shitty contractors and not to veteran health care anyway
We only spend about 3% of our gdp on defense. That’s below most other countries. We are obligated to spend at least 2% due to treaty obligations.
Only? The US accounts for 40% of all military spending in the world. We are at nearly 3 times second place, China, $876 billion to $290 billion. Considering the US has the most billionaires and compilation of billionaire wealth, I really don’t think GDP is the great earmark you are portraying it as.
And? We only have the largest gdp and a professional army.
GDP is the standard used.
Look at Ukraine and you will see the money has been well spent. A small country has been able to fight off a previous super power for over a year.
That’s only with a 3% spend. So I fully support the military as it also paid for my education.
We spend 3.5% of our GDP on defense and that’s actually far more than most countries. We have the 6th highest GPD to military spending ratio in the world. The countries who spend more of their GDP are relativity tiny. They amount to 11% of the total global spending on defense vs the USA’s 39%.
The second largest GDP is China- they spend 1.6% of their GDP on defense. Third is Japan @ 1.1%… You get the idea.
Regarding the 2% NATO obligation- most members don’t make it so it doesn’t seem to be a real obligation.
The cruelty is the point.
Republicans can go fuck themselves, how about that?
I remember watching this a while back expecting it to end up being a video of him putting the dildo “in” but just using camera angles or some similar method to make it appear like he was doing it, but nope. He unequivocally stuck a dildo up his ass because somehow that means he doesn’t hate gay people. It honestly baffles me to try and understand how that makes logical sense to him
They won’t be able to pass it and even if they did it will go nowhere in the Senate. They know this. There will be a shutdown.
