The GOP budget is going to be the single most unpopular and destructive budget in modern American history - tariffs/higher prices, exploding deficits, gutting health care, slashing clean energy/higher electricity costs, huge ICE expansion.

Where is the Republican budget? By law it was required to be passed and in place by Sept 30th. Anyone seen it? Got any idea what might be in it? Why the f-ck is the House taking a month long vacation without getting their work done?
