A balanced budget cannot be reached by just slashing spending without dramatically increasing poverty. That’s what Trump and Republicans are doing — that’s why millions are struggling to afford groceries and rent. All while passing tax breaks for their billionaire buddies.

Republicans are trying to pass a budget that ends Medicaid as we know it to pay for tax breaks for people like Elon Musk. But something is happening in America. American workers are rising up, and together we can defeat Trump, Elon, and their billionaire buddies.

By cutting SNAP benefits, Republicans are: Increasing hunger Increasing poverty Increasing costs for states and families Increasing the wealth of the ultra-rich That’s their idea of a “Big, Beautiful, Bill”

The rich have never been richer. Meanwhile, many Americans are struggling to get by. What are Trump and Republicans doing about it? Passing more tax cuts predominantly for the wealthy while making devastating cuts to the social safety net.

Trump promised to lower costs on day one. He lied, and millions of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck, while Trump and Republicans work to make their billionaire buddies even richer.

Tonight, House Republicans passed a budget which steals taxpayer dollars from Medicaid to give tax breaks to their billionaire donors and big corporations. Their cruel budget raises costs for those already struggling to make ends meet — but Republicans voted for it with glee.

PabloReports: What do you make of Donald Trump doing 3,700 stock trades? Walkinshaw: This is the most corrupt administration in American history. The insider trading, the digital schemes, the $1.8 billion slush fund, and hardworking Americans are out there just busting their ass, can’t afford rent or groceries while Trump and his buddies are literally stealing our money.

If it weren’t for SNAP, I wouldn’t be where I am today. Now, Republicans are trying to rip that lifeline away from millions of kids, Veterans and working families—just to hand more tax breaks to their billionaire buddies. No one should go hungry so the rich can get richer.

15 days into the government shutdown. We cannot allow Trump to throw millions off their healthcare or raise premiums by 75% just to hand out tax breaks to his billionaire donors. This is where we are ⬇️

Republicans are working with President Trump to balance the budget the only way it can be done—by cutting wasteful spending in D.C. and growing our economy. That’s exactly what the One Big Beautiful Bill does! 🇺🇸

Republicans are trying to gut Medicaid so they can give tax breaks to their billionaire buddies. I spoke with thousands of New Yorkers worried about Republicans’ cuts to Medicaid. These New Yorkers were so energized, and we’re ready to fight side-by-side for health care.

Republicans are selling out working people — spending on tax cuts for billionaires and ballooning ICE’s budget. All while American families struggle to keep food on the table.

Americans are paying more for groceries and electricity, and now their health care premiums are rising too. Republicans need to stop being a rubber stamp for President Trump and start working with us to protect the health care tax credits millions depend on.

Republicans are NOT passing a clean funding bill. They're passing a dirty rotten, lousy funding bill that gives Trump and Musk a blank check to keep stealing from the American people so they can give tax breaks to greedy corporations and billionaire donors.

Republicans are proposing a budget to exploit your labor, take your tax dollars, and gut your earned benefits — all to bankroll tax cuts for their billionaire donors. And they have the audacity to call it “fiscal responsibility.” Voting NO.

Trump and Republicans are working for one group of people right now — billionaires. Instead of introducing ludicrous legislation to pretend they’re trying to balance the budget, they should be working to serve their constituents — not the President and his billionaire buddies.

Clark: At minimum we are going to pay U.S. Senators $8 million while they dismantle health care for people, while they can't afford to buy meat, coffee and groceries and can't afford their electric bill. I mean, what are we doing? What are we doing? We have to be able to say no to this. This is blatant corruption

Republicans are trying to take away health care from millions of Americans in order to give tax breaks to billionaires — so Trump is manufacturing a crisis, demonizing immigrants with increasing extremism, cruelty and disregard for the law. It’s the Trump playbook.

Was informed I’m in a cult and not allowed to be a Republican by my debating partner on CNN. So I explained why that’s wrong, and why millions of Republicans are planning to support Trump & the GOP ticket this fall.

Trump's tax breaks for billionaires are not free. They will cost working families across Arizona. In order to give a handout to rich people, families who rely on school lunch and Medicaid will be the ones footing the bill. Why are Republicans slashing services to give more tax breaks to rich people?
