There are loopholes you could drive a truck through.
The IRS must still abandon audits of Trump’s previous returns, an unprecedented benefit worth potentially tens of millions to the president personally.

John Cornyn and Thom Tillis just caved.
They had real leverage. On Judiciary, either one could have stopped Todd Blanche’s nomination cold.
What did they get? A legally dubious memo rescinding the $1.8B slush fund and an unsigned statement on Trump’s tax protections.
No amount of spin can change the plain truth. If confirmed, Todd Blanche would be Trump’s defense attorney disguised as Attorney General.
He cannot be the people’s lawyer while the sitting president is his client. He must not be confirmed.
The cruelty is aimed at the children least able to absorb it.
This is morally reprehensible.
We’ll fight it in every way we can.
They want to strip away the help that lets a struggling parent get their kid to a doctor, spot a learning delay early, and show up to school ready to learn.
Head Start has helped over 30 million kids since 1965. It was built to give poor children a fair shot before kindergarten. Now the Trump administration wants to gut the standards that make it work, while calling it “cutting red tape.”
This is your daily reminder that Trump and Republicans are spending billions of your tax dollars on an unauthorized war in Iran and Stephen Miller’s ICE agenda while gutting Medicaid, slashing SNAP, and driving up your health care costs.
The president said data centers cause “very little actual disruption” for local communities. The families living next to them would disagree.
These facilities pull enormous amounts of water and electricity. They raise real health and environmental concerns. None of that is minor to the people.
Kill the slush fund, then vote him down anyway.

Blanche cannot be the president’s personal defense lawyer one year and the nation’s chief law enforcement officer the next. The attorney general answers to the Constitution, not to a client in the Oval Office.
That conflict does not disappear with a memo.
I’m glad that Senators Cornyn and Tillis want written proof that the $1.8 billion slush fund built to pay January 6th insurrectionists is actually dead, and with it the audit immunity Blanche handed Trump and his family.
But that is the very least Cornyn and his colleagues can do.
Todd Blanche is Donald Trump’s new Roy Cohn. He must not be confirmed.
Debt spent on survival builds nothing.
Anyone telling you the affordability crisis is invented should explain this to the mom swiping a credit card at the checkout line, praying it goes through.

Washington Republicans made it worse by gutting SNAP. Since last July, more than 4.5 million people lost food assistance, including over a million children in just 19 states.
When families finance dinner, they cannot save, invest, or get ahead.
Last year more than 1 in 3 working-age adults used credit cards to buy groceries. Nearly 1 in 10 turned to Buy Now, Pay Later plans just to eat. About 1 in 5 dipped into long-term savings for food, and some resorted to payday loans with interest rates that hit triple digits.
More and more Americans are buying groceries on credit cards and paying them off over years. A family charges food to a card, eats it in a week, and is still paying interest on that meal a decade later.
The numbers are brutal.
This is your daily reminder that Trump and Republicans are spending billions of your tax dollars on an unauthorized war in Iran and Stephen Miller’s ICE agenda while gutting Medicaid, slashing SNAP, and driving up your health care costs.
We must not accept seniors footing the bill while Washington makes their medicine more expensive, not less.
Remember this November.

Killing it means most enrollees will pay more next year, right as the cost of groceries, housing, utilities, and everything else is already through the roof.
Seniors on fixed incomes do not have that room. This is exactly the opposite of what they need right now.
The Trump administration just announced it is ending a program that has been holding down Medicare drug premiums, and the timing could not be worse.
That program kept premiums lower for around 25 million seniors on Part D drug plans.
