“On Wednesday, the House Budget Committee released a skeletal budget resolution that would move forward on a bill to extend the Trump tax cuts and offset it with trillions in cuts. It was immediately derided as unworkable, unmanageable, and not the final deal. And it’s not clear that it even has the votes to pass the Budget Committee tomorrow. … The House favored one bill that would include the tax cuts, border and military spending, and budget cuts.” [editor’s note: Any time Congress acts on recommendations to curb waste, fraud and money laundering, the “left” call it stealing from the poor – SAT] [additional editor’s note: Any time Republicans pretend to act on such recommendations, Democrats call it that. And vice versa. It’s all as real as professional wrestling – TLK] (02/12/25)
