    I drive the length of the NJT roundtrip almost once/month. I will say it is impressive the volume of traffic it moves at 80 mph

    I'm so glad they're not trying to push this through in the dark of night. Because, why would they need to do that? I'm sure it couldn't be because they are trying to hide something is it?

    Fox & Friends sent an email asking to book Kirstie Alley on Wednesday's show to talk about George Wendt.

    I had to look it up, because I had forgotten that she died a couple of years ago. I do remember that she was a Trumper, which is probably why I didn't remember that she died, because I stopped caring about her entirely when she came out as a Trumper. Anyways, Fox and Friends probably also forgot that she died, and they probably also remember that she was a Trumper, which is why they asked for her.

    House budget bill passed, now on to the Senate where R’s reportedly intend to modify it.

    I thought the orange king was supposed to trim the deficit? This "big, beautiful bill" will only increase it while cutting Medicaid and SNAP benefits for 14 million people.

    Haven’t delved too deep into the weeds on the Medicaid portion, but if they are increasing work requirements and rolling back the Obamacare expansion which drastically altered what Medicaid was originally intended to do, then I completely understand it. And a tax increase for American consumers at this point could be devastating.

    People that don't have experience with Medicaid shouldn't be allowed to comment on it. What our DEI poster said above is completely ********ing ignorant.

    Will I be allowed to gloat at the increasing rate of closures of hospitals in rural red areas this will cause?

    The consumers are not the ones getting the tax relief, especially with the benefit cut force-multiplier.

    Also, and I was unaware of this, many of the bill's provisions sunset in January of 2029, leaving an orange shit-stain on the desks of the incoming Congress, who will be left the task of finding mathematically responsible funding for this act of violence. As is, it's a shell-game cluster-fvck.

    Worth the wait, hang on for the plaintive appeals to Trump for rescue from what he's done to them

    Bond yields up again in reaction to the budget. Investors don't like it and know it's contains very little in the way of economic growth and just adds more debt.
