DEPENDENCE DAY: While the United states Armed Forces (private mercenaries) are stationed at 737 bases, in 130 nations around the world, defending “all freedom-loving people everywhere in the world,” Republican (fascist/socialist) President Trump signs house resolution one (a.k.a. “The Big Beautiful Bill”):
- Making permanent the 2017 tax cuts;
- Reducing—but not eliminating—income taxes on tips and overtime pay;
- Reducing—not transferring to the states—Medicaid and food stamps;
- Adding an additional 3,400,000,000,000 “dollars” to the national debt over the next decade;
- Imposing annual 100 “dollar” fees on political asylum applicants;
- Establishing Qualified Tuition Program savings accounts with 1,000 “dollars” of Federal subsidies for every qualified U.s. subject/enemy/citizen born between 2025 and 2028;
- Using the savings from welfare state cuts for MASSIVELY increased spending—over 1,000,000,000,000 “dollars annually—for foreign military aggression and more than tripling the budget for border repression; and
- Increasing the national debt limit by another 5,000,000,000,000 “dollars.”
NOTE: So much for conservative Republicans!
