The Big Beautiful Bill (And the Big Fat Lie That Comes With It)

Let me save you the trouble of reading 900 pages of political manure: Trump’s so-called "Big Beautiful Bill" is not beautiful. Unless, of course, you're a billionaire looking to buy another yacht. Then it's drop-dead gorgeous.

But if you’re a regular person—working, parenting, caregiving, aging, breathing? This bill is a dumpster fire with glitter on top. And yeah, it *will* affect you.

Let’s unpack the con....

 Health Care for Millions? Just Gone.

Trump and his crew want you to believe they’re trimming fat. But they’re gutting Medicaid and ACA subsidies—programs that keep real people alive. Not lazy freeloaders. Real people.

- Over 11 million people are projected to lose coverage. 
- That includes disabled kids, low-income workers, seniors, and your cousin who lost his job and needed COBRA for 2 months.

This isn’t about personal responsibility. It’s about political cruelty dressed up as “fiscal discipline.”

 Cutting SNAP = Cutting Dinner

This bill pulls off the largest food assistance cut in U.S. history. 
Millions of families—yes, working families—will lose benefits.

And before someone says, “well they should just get a job”—spoiler: most SNAP recipients already have jobs. They're just underpaid.

So if this bill passes and your neighbor’s kids are eating ramen 5 nights a week, don’t ask why. Ask who voted for it.

 One in Four Nursing Homes Could Shut Down

The bill’s Medicaid cuts don’t just shave a little off the top. They chainsaw through the foundation of long-term care.

- 1 in 4 nursing homes say they’ll be forced to close.
- Over half say they'll have to cut staff or stop modernizing.
- Translation: Your mom’s care just became a budget line in a billionaire’s tax break.

And no, this isn’t hypothetical. The American Health Care Association ran the numbers. It’s real. And horrifying.

 Meanwhile… Billionaires Cash In

Let’s talk about where all this “saved” money goes.

➡️ The top 0.1%—a.k.a. Jeff Bezos and his golf buddies—get an average windfall worth hundreds of thousands a year. 
➡️ Estate tax protections get doubled. 
➡️ Corporate loopholes stay wide open. 
➡️ Even pass-through businesses (think Trump Org) rake in massive savings.

It’s a trickle-down gold rush—only nothing’s trickling but your kid’s Medicaid waiver.

 The Deficit Bomb They Don’t Want to Talk About

You thought Republicans cared about the deficit? Cute.

This thing adds up to $4 trillion to the national debt. That’s more than what they screamed about for COVID relief. More than the entire cost of student loan forgiveness.

“Buy American” — Or Just Ship It to China?

Trump loves to wrap himself in the flag and shout “America First,” but this bill? It’s giving tax breaks to companies that move jobs overseas. Let me say that again: While he’s threatening to punish you for not buying American, he’s rewarding corporations for outsourcing to foreign labor markets.

You’re not crazy. That’s literally what the bill does.

• Instead of investing in American workers, the bill offers loopholes for companies who shift production abroad.

• Meanwhile, if you buy a foreign car? You're taxed more. But if a billionaire uses foreign contractors to cut costs and pad profit margins? He gets a write-off.

So next time someone tells you this bill is about “protecting American jobs,” tell them to check the fine print—and maybe their wallet.

And you better believe it’ll be your taxes, your kids’ programs, and your Social Security they’ll “have to fix” next.

 But Wait—They Might Jack Up Your Power Bill Too

Because of course they will.

The bill guts renewable energy incentives and climate funding. That means:
- Slower rollout of efficient tech
- Rising utility costs
- Fossil fuel companies laughing all the way to the Cayman Islands

They’re not just coming for your safety net. They’re coming for your air conditioning.

 So Who Is This For?

Not you.
Not your kids.
Not your grandma.

This bill is for:
- Billionaires
- Corporations
- Private jet owners
- Politicians cashing in on the donor class

If you're not one of those? You’re footing the bill while they sip champagne on your canceled Medicaid plan.

 If You’re Still Cheering, Read That Again

Trump slapped a pretty label on a poison pill and called it “beautiful.” 
But if you think this bill “owns the libs” or “only affects illegals”—you’ve been had.

This bill cuts your programs. Yes yours too.
Raises your bills. Not just the LIBS or the non whites. everyones.
And hands the savings to people who wouldn't give you a second glance unless you were polishing their yacht and more than likely not even then.

 What Can You Do?

- Call your representatives. Tell them you read the bill. You know what it really does.
- Share this post with someone who still thinks it’s “beautiful.”
- Vote like your family’s care depends on it—because it literally does.

This isn’t conservative policy. It’s corporate greed in camo print. 
Wrapped in a flag. 
Waving a Bible. 
And coming straight for the rest of us.

One Last Thing...

Before you scroll away or fire off a “but Trump!” comment, take a second.

Ask yourself this:

Have you always wanted people to suffer just so you could laugh at them in the name of Jesus?

Or is that something new?

Because that mindset—that cruelty-as-entertainment, that “own the libs at any cost” energy—is about to bite you in the ass. And it won’t just be liberals feeling it. It’ll be your neighbor. Your mom. Your kid. And yeah... maybe even you.

This bill doesn’t discriminate by bumper sticker. It cuts deep, and it cuts across.

Jesus fed the poor. This bill feeds billionaires.

So… amen?
