Now that we’ve seen the full Senate text, we can say for certain: either the House or the Senate version would be the largest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in a single law in history. Each have the largest Medicaid and largest SNAP cuts ever. And each give huge tax cuts to the rich.

70,000 people marched through Seattle at the No Kings rally. It was loud, it was huge, and it was only a start. While downtown swelled with speeches, ICE tear-gassed protesters in Tukwila. Showing up once isn’t enough. The fight doesn’t end when the march does.

It’s not “efficient” for a 21-year-old Elon Musk crony to have access to the sensitive personal data of every single American paying into Social Security. This reeks of corruption to benefit Trump-friendly Palantir while risking Social Security info for millions.
