    Well 51-50 the BBB passed with several changes..it should now go back to the House for further voting with many amendments and items that were removed for it to pass. Not sure if the debate in the House will be more intense the second time around.

    Republican Tullis said he would not vote yes because his state will lose $26 billion in healthcare coverage alone. The amount of losses across the board to everyone in this country except a handful of rich people is obscene. The claim that it is the worst legislation in American history isn't in any way based on hyperbole.

    It's still gotta get through the house again.

    Of course the 'expurts' said that it probably would not get through the lower house the first time.

    meh.

    Success of the tariff war with Canada?

    Sure glad I don't own stock in the employment market:

    On Wednesday, ADP data showed private employers unexpectedly cut 33,000 jobs in June. This marked the first month of job losses in the private sector since March 2023. Meanwhile, continuing filings for unemployment benefits recently hit their highest level in nearly four years.
    source: June jobs report expected to show hiring slowed while unemployment rate ticked higher
