Get ready for more nasty chants from America haters: "down, down US-eh"
Considering the only two qualifications for Jackson was to be a black woman, and the fact Jackson doesn't know what a woman is.... does this really surprise anyone?

This one looks like total fake news.
"Trump's executive order ending birthright citizenship is now in effect, after SCOTUS decision."
The ruling was stayed for 30 days, so forget the "now" part. It is NOT in effect at this time. The whole mess is bouncing back to lower courts. SCOTUS did not rule on the executive order, rather on the rights of judges to block it nationwide. Because SCOTUS took away lower judges making the nationwide blocks, the executive order will not apply in every state unless things are straightened out during the 30 day stay.

Sorry you are technically correct!
I was just quoting Dear Leader and Faux News (cause they’re so much more accurate than CNN)
Yep, SCOTUS will have to come down with a decision on this whole thing, otherwise you have one city like Chicago saying if you have a child in their city you're a US citizen regardless of citizenship, while if you have a kid in say Palm Beach you're not automatically a US citizen.
Going to get messy REAL fast.

Well I stand corrected.l!
Apparently the Big Beautiful Bill is going to cut ALL tax on Social Security for seniors!
Hey I can be bought like everyone else, go ahead and run up that debt, give away all that pork, let Mike Lee sell our western open land to Walmart and Starbucks. We didnt need those fixes for the NFA anyway. Not my problem!
Just give me that $13,000 raise, huge tax break and No tax on my Social Security.

* Better hurry.
Congress is scheduled to only work something like 14 days out of the next 65

Don't worry, inflation will eat it all up. Give everyone $13K is the same thing as increasing inflation such that everyone is paying $13K more for chit. Just another reason that the idea that everyone can be a millionaire doesn't work.

In Floriduh, press one for English, two for Spanish, three for Creole....redonkulous!
I've skimmed the house bill and sure can't find this.
The summary list of tax cuts is:
PART2—ADDITIONAL TAX RELIEF FOR AMERICAN FAMILIES AND WORKERS
Sec. 110101. No tax on tips.
Sec. 110102. No tax on overtime.
Sec. 110103. Enhanced deduction for seniors.
Sec. 110104. No tax on car loan interest.
Sec. 110105. Enhancement of employer-provided child care credit.
Sec. 110106. Extension and enhancement of paid family and medical leave credit.
Sec. 110107. Enhancement of adoption credit.
Sec. 110108. Recognizing Indian tribal governments for purposes of deter mining whether a child has special needs for purposes of the adoption credit.
Sec. 110109. Scholarship granting organizations.
Sec. 110110. Additional elementary, secondary, and home school expenses treated as qualified higher education expenses for purposes of 529 accounts.
Sec. 110111. Certain posts econdary credentialing expenses treated as qualified higher education expenses for purposes of 529 accounts.
Sec. 110112. Reinstatement of partial deduction for charitable contributions of individuals who do not elect to itemize.
Sec. 110113. Exclusion for certain employer payments of student loans under educational assistance programs made permanent and adjusted for inflation.
Sec. 110114. Extension of rules for treatment of certain disaster-related personal casualty losses.
Sec. 110115. Trump accounts.
Sec. 110116. Trump accounts contribution pilot program.
Only a little over a thousand pages to skim through. Did I hear somebody say we're being played?
And it's totally understandable what's being done, for a random example:
(1) IN GENERAL.—Section 1902 of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1396a) is amended(A) in subsection (a)
(i) in paragraph (86), by striking ‘‘and’’ at the end;
(ii) in paragraph (87), by striking the period and inserting ‘‘; and’’

Trump Says He’s Ready to Bomb Iran Again If Necessary
Donald Trump stated that the United States will insist on external control over Iran’s nuclear program in the future — potentially involving the IAEA or even direct American oversight.
He also threatened that the U.S. would be prepared to use military force again if it is discovered that Iran has retained uranium enrichment capabilities.
