Senator Schumer and the Big Beautiful Bill

[Salty]

I normally hate to use the word "liar".
The definition of a lie is to deceive.

If Senator Schumer did read the entire bill - then he may be guilty of lying.
Some of the things he said was: 1) it rewards the ultra rich., 2) more $$ for billionaires 3) cut Medicaid.
1 & 2) Actually it rewards all taxpayears! Now those who make less that 25,000 will not see any tax savings.
But then again - those at that financial, probably do not have a tax liability - if they do - it is a very small amount.

Those in the 25 G - about 100 G will have their tax rate retain - instead of a 25% increase.
In addition, those age 65 & over will realize additional tax savings.

You might say that Schumer was partly right about cutting Medicaid. YEs, some might loose that "benefit". 1) if they are illegal, 2) if they refuse to work.

One other thing - Schumer accused Trump of being a bully. and stated how several R's voted against the bill

Lets look back at Obamacare. Remember how Obama bullied the R's? In addition 34 Dems voted no on Obamacare.

Here is the video about this conversation.

Senator Schumer is scared to death that AOC will challenge him in the next primary, knowing he would likely lose to her.

As always, politicians playing politics. Lying well (or telling partial truths) takes practice.

Peace to you

2018 Dem Primary:
AOC .........56%
Crowley....44%

In the General Election AOC won 78% of the vote,
in spite of four other party lines on the ballot.

Republican:.............................................. 13.6%
........Working Family .......................5.7
......Women's Equality....................0.9
Total for Joseph Crowley.......................6.6
Conservative..................................................1.6
Write-In............................................................0.1


Note: the incumbent ran on 2 party lines.
He had been a 10 term Congressman - and
was the Chair of the Democratic caucus

AOC is now in her fourth term - House seniority: 221 / out of 431 (50%)
She is one of 48 congressmen who had been elected in 2018.
In that class of 2018, there were 85 members!


A half truth is a full lie
