Looks like Trump's illegal #IranWar & #BigBeautifulBill broke the already broken bank: moneywise.com/news/economy... And he's depleted our military's armaments on his #Iran folly. Leaving #DOD to scramble prvt industry like auto manufacturers to maybe fill the hole & BTW leaving us very vulnerable.

"Did Trump’s hatchet job on healthcare, education, food assistance, and other public services and egregious tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans deliver the prosperity and economic growth that he promised so effusively?
You’ll be just shocked to learn the answer is…no, of course not.
Time to log on."

The so-called "Big Beautiful Bill" designed to take place after the election.
Unless we elect progressives — Democrat does not always mean progressive — You're going to need to pay attention to who you're voting for.
But unless we vote progressive, no one will undo that "Big Beautiful Bill". Instead, they will accept it, allow it, and tell you that you should be mad at the Conservative Republicans who put that in place.
That is the "gotcha" — That right there is why so many people feel like both parties are the same. Because at the end of the day, we still end up someplace we don't want to go. Conservative Democrats don't roll back the damage, but rather holdover what Conservative Republicans did so that you accept this is the new normal. Comparable to how once prices at a store go up, they never really truly return to how they once were.
You want real change and real accountability? Vote progressive.

So trump's #BigBeautifulBill has taken money away from working people, and gone into funding Billionaires and War.
Nice one #MAGA and anyone else who was dumb enough to vote for the orange fascist.

@billyjoebowers Just like the pre-French revolution nobility and elites, they are all in this.
So what if the peasants in pre 1789 France could not eat bread. They could eat the cake. Now too, so what if it takes 3 jobs to put food on the table and fill in a gallon of fuel in the tank, at least the Dow is above 50000.
Just like pre revolution French nobility now also #Billionaire are exempt from paying taxes because of #bigbeautifulbill. -
#Palantir Pays Zero Federal #IncomeTax Despite Explosive Growth, Largely Due to #Trump Tax Law
by Matthew Gardner, February 17, 2026
"The CEO of Palantir, the tech company known for equipping #ICE with #AITools that hack into people’s phones, recently said he runs 'the first company to be completely #AntiWoke.' This week, we learned that a key part of being anti-woke is, apparently, not paying taxes.
"In its recent earnings call summarizing fiscal year 2025, a Palantir exec crowed that the company’s explosive growth and profitability for the year was 'one of the truly iconic performances in the history of corporate performance.' But the company neglected to mention one weird trick that also fueled its 2025 growth: this is the third straight year that a profitable Palantir has avoided paying even a dime of federal income tax on its earnings.
"Palantir’s annual financial report, released this week, shows the company enjoyed $1.5 billion of U.S. income and paid exactly zero federal income tax. At the 21 percent federal income tax rate profitable companies theoretically pay, Palantir should have paid $330 million.
"While the company used a variety of tax breaks to achieve this, the most obvious is the new tax break enacted by Congress at the behest of President Trump last summer. The 'One #BigBeautifulBill' allows companies to (retroactively) immediately deduct their research expenses, rather than writing them off gradually over time in line with the income generated from that research. Palantir reduced its taxes by over $400 million using this provision.
"U.S. #taxpayers are paying multiple times for the services provided by Palantir, which the Trump administration finds so valuable. First, we pay the bill for the government contracts signed with the company, for example, the deal signed in April for Palantir to provide ICE with a system to track immigrants. Then we pay again with subsidies provided through the tax code, including the $400 million for the 'research' the company has done to create these innovations in government surveillance.
"It’s not news that helping the Trump administration with its policy goals can be enormously profitable. But it’s important to recognize that Palantir’s recent success has been helped substantially by a far more pedestrian tool: handouts from American taxpayers."

"According to the Trump Labor Department’s own jobs data published Friday (and also leaked early by Trump on Thursday), 2025 was the worst year for hiring since 2020, and what the Wall Street Journal says is the worst year for annual job growth outside of a recession since 2003."

"This didn’t happen because Congress didn’t know the deadline was coming or because the policy was unpopular. It happened because Republican leaders once again chose ideology and performative hostility toward Obamacare over the real, lived consequences for their own constituents.

"As of today, the enhanced Affordable Care Act premium subsidies that made health insurance affordable for millions of Americans have expired. Not phased down, not gently unwound. Expired. The result is a sudden and punishing premium spike for people who buy their insurance on the ACA marketplaces — many of whom live in red states and vote Republican."

More Than 20 Million Americans Are Set to Lose Health Care Coverage on January 1
An expert discusses how premiums will work, how to seek help, what to watch for in alternative plans, and more. -
"2026 marks a pivot point where 'having insurance' no longer equates to 'having healthcare.' Between the loss of subsidies and the rise of massive deductibles, millions of Americans are becoming 'under-insured'—holding a card in their wallet they are too afraid to use because of the out-of-pocket costs."

Dr. Eric Lullove explains why healthcare is about to get a lot more expensive in 2026 as coverage falls off the cliff due to:
1. The Death of the “Enhanced” Subsidy
2. The Great Retreat: Aetna and UnitedHealthcare
3. The “Under-Insurance” Trap in Employer Plans
4. The Self-Employed “Tax Trap”

#ICE Hires Immigrant #BountyHunters From #PrivatePrison Company #GEOGroup
#BIIncorporated, a subsidiary of for-profit prison company GEO Group, will help ICE pinpoint the locations of #immigrants.
by Sam Biddle, December 19 2025
Excerpt: "The deal illustrates a strategy of vertical integration within GEO Group, which has found a growing line of business operating for-profit immigration detention centers under the second #Trump administration. In this case, the corporation stands to be paid by the federal government to both find immigrants and then to imprison them.
"Shares of GEO Group, which donated to both Trump’s reelection campaign and his inaugural fund, spiked following his 2024 victory. Trump’s return to office has proven fortuitous for GEO Group: The president’s '#BigBeautifulBill' earmarked $45 billion for jailing immigrants. 'This is a unique moment in our company’s history,' GEO Group CEO J. David Donahue told investors in May, 'and we believe we are well-positioned to meet this unprecedented opportunity.'
"GEO Group has faced decades of criticism over alleged mismanagement of its facilities and claims of rampant abuse of inmates. In August, The Intercept reported the suicide of a Chinese immigrant held at a GEO Group-operated prison in Pennsylvania. The American Civil Liberties Union filed a federal complaint over the facility in July, criticizing 'horrific conditions' at the prison, including repeated instances of medical neglect.
"In 2023, GEO Group was hit by a class-action lawsuit alleging the 'months-long poisoning' from a chemical disinfectant of more than 1,300 inmates at a California immigration detention center. In May, Tufts University student #RümeysaÖztürk, jailed for her criticism of the Israeli #genocide in #Gaza, alleged her GEO Group-managed jail delayed treatment while she experienced an asthma attack."

#ICE Hires Immigrant #BountyHunters From #PrivatePrison Company #GEOGroup
#BIIncorporated, a subsidiary of for-profit prison company GEO Group, will help ICE pinpoint the locations of #immigrants.
by Sam Biddle, December 19 2025
Excerpt: "The deal illustrates a strategy of vertical integration within GEO Group, which has found a growing line of business operating for-profit immigration detention centers under the second #Trump administration. In this case, the corporation stands to be paid by the federal government to both find immigrants and then to imprison them.
"Shares of GEO Group, which donated to both Trump’s reelection campaign and his inaugural fund, spiked following his 2024 victory. Trump’s return to office has proven fortuitous for GEO Group: The president’s '#BigBeautifulBill' earmarked $45 billion for jailing immigrants. 'This is a unique moment in our company’s history,' GEO Group CEO J. David Donahue told investors in May, 'and we believe we are well-positioned to meet this unprecedented opportunity.'
"GEO Group has faced decades of criticism over alleged mismanagement of its facilities and claims of rampant abuse of inmates. In August, The Intercept reported the suicide of a Chinese immigrant held at a GEO Group-operated prison in Pennsylvania. The American Civil Liberties Union filed a federal complaint over the facility in July, criticizing 'horrific conditions' at the prison, including repeated instances of medical neglect.
"In 2023, GEO Group was hit by a class-action lawsuit alleging the 'months-long poisoning' from a chemical disinfectant of more than 1,300 inmates at a California immigration detention center. In May, Tufts University student #RümeysaÖztürk, jailed for her criticism of the Israeli #genocide in #Gaza, alleged her GEO Group-managed jail delayed treatment while she experienced an asthma attack."

The GOP thinks it has a messaging problem 🤣
What it really has is a solutions problem for ordinary Americans. They have no solutions for affordable #healthcare, #housing, #StudentDebt
Trickle down has failed, the #2026MidTermElection consequences are inevitable. No amount of lipstick application will make the #BigBeautifulBill look anything different than the pig it is - a giveaway for #billionaires
