Morning all. Big day in DC today. Speaker Johnson intends to bring up the Trump-House GOP budget framework for a vote. The one that will 1) dramatically cut health care for 72m Americans 2) cuts taxes for the wealthy and corporations 3) explode the deficit. While #1 and #2 have gotten the most attention #3 - a huge increase in the deficit - matters for it makes them liars about wanting to “save money” through whatever the fuck Musk is doing right now. Republicans are planning on dramatically increasing the deficit and debt, not cut it.

As of this morning Mike Johnson doesn’t have the votes to pass this first step in the House budget process. Here’s the latest from Politico, Big beautiful budget on life support:

Mike Johnson has about 12 hours to get his conference behind his plan for enacting the president’s sweeping agenda. It’s not looking good.

The speaker insists he’s not changing the budget resolution, which would set parameters for a sweeping bill to address border security, energy and tax policy. If House Democrats are at full attendance, just two GOP “no” votes would sink the resolution.
