This has always been the GOP's strategy:

1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves.

2) Explode the deficit.

3) Demand cuts to vital programs that help millions.

4) Repeat.

They're trying to get away with it again.

One Republican is exposing the Trump cronies' “big, beautiful” lie:

Speaking to CNN, Rep. Thomas Massie said, “Under the policies of this bill, we’re going to add ... $3.5 to $5 trillion more [to the deficit] than would have been added otherwise.” Trump replied he should be voted out of office.

Sounds like confirmation the federal government is doing nothing to “facilitate” Abredo Garcia‘s release.

This is presidential defiance of a unanimous Supreme Court order.
Van Hollen says that he asked the VP of El Salvador why his government continues to hold Abrego Garcia even though he’s not charged with any crime and there’s no evidence that he’s MS-13.

“His answer was that the Trump administration is paying the government of El Salvador to keep him at CECOT”
