The nonpartisan CBO found the GOP's Big, Ugly Billionaires Budget adds trillions to the national debt due to their massive tax handouts to the ultra-wealthy. Tax cuts for billionaires. 16 million people lose their health insurance. Trillions added to the national debt.

CBO releases a “dynamic” score of the House-passed One Big Beautiful Bill Act, finding that it would add $2.77 trillion to the debt. That’s worse than the static score of $2.4 trillion in new debt. The reason? Economic growth revenue is outweighed by higher interest payments.

While we are still learning the facts behind this heinous act, we must reject all forms of political violence. The health and survival of our democracy depend on it.
