REPUBLICANS HAVE CLEVERLY PUT DELAYS ON THE WORST PARTS OF THIS BILL TO GO INTO AFFECT AFTER THE MIDTERMS, SO THAT IT WON’T BE NOTICED BY THEIR BASE BEFORE THE ELECTIONS IN 2026.

SO IT’S UP TO DEMOCRATS TO FIND AN AFFECTIVE WAY TO INFORM THE PUBLIC.

The "mega bill," also known as President Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill", will likely take effect soon after President Trump signs it into law, possibly on the Fourth of July, after being passed by both the House and Senate. The bill, which includes tax cuts and spending changes, is expected to be signed into law shortly after it passes Congress.

Here's a more detailed breakdown:

House and Senate Passage:

The bill has passed both the House and Senate, with the House voting to approve the Senate version.

President Trump's Signature:

The bill is expected to be signed into law by President Trump, potentially on the Fourth of July.

Tax Cuts:

Most of the tax cuts are expected to take effect quickly, with potential savings reflected when taxpayers file their returns early next year.

Spending Cuts:

Some of the social spending cuts, particularly in areas like Medicaid and food assistance, are likely to be delayed, potentially until after the 2026 midterm elections.

Indirect Effects:

The bill's impact on bond markets and interest rates could have broader, less predictable consequences on the economy.

Grew up in a sundown town. In the 60’s. I’ve seen a lot and so many don’t even acknowledge that those things happened.

Yes! I heard him say "owner" too. Unbelievable. He thinks the farmers should own their workers as slaves.

Yeah, a fascist manifesto that nobody made available. Same as nobody told the extent of this 90 page bill.
