Stephen Miller laid out the process pretty clearly yesterday. It’s just how it works. Not sure why that is so hard for some of you tards to comprehend.

Having the cuts in a separate bill needs to happen. Get every single one of these mfers on the record.

I have been saying this to you people for two months now.

Since Trump was elected - the only thing they have been working on is passing the Big Beautiful Bill - they don’t care about arrests, EO’s, DOGE, etc until AFTER the Big Beautiful Bill is sitting on Trump's desk waiting for his signature

After the dust settles with the BBB - they will get into the DOGE stuff, all of his EO’s, etc. I’ll say it again.. the only thing that they have cared about has been the Big Beautiful Bill. It’s a lot of work putting that thing together and there’s only so many hours in a day.

One of these days you Debbie downers will listen to me.

I want the DOGE cuts on a separate bill with nothing else on it. That way we can see who is opposed to saving the American taxpayer money, those that vote against it should be primaried promptly

Single issue bills, across the board. And for those who would snort derisively at the notion on the grounds of "Do you realize how long that would take???!"

Yes, I do. And if it takes that long, that tells me the federal government is involved in a metric shite ton of things they shouldn't be, by virtue of the Tenth Amendment.

If they're going to pretend that career politician is a full time gig (it really isn't) then make it a full time gig.

People don’t understand that every single thing Trump and the MAGA Republicans are doing is methodically planned and the winning prize is dominating the mid-terms.

They don’t want to blow their loads on things because Americans have an attention span of 2 hours (and not 18 months)

The closer we start getting to campaign mode for the mid-terms, the more shock and awe will start happening. People just need to have patience and let the process play out. It’s going to be Christmas every single morning once we get closer to the end of the year - I have heard around the start of college football season - going to be the best college football / fall season ever.

I have three monitors at my desk.. 2 of the monitors I use to build websites and crap for 8-10 hours/day and the other monitor plays podcasts all day while I work. In other words, I listen to a lot of real news every day. I am confident that the Trump team and MAGA Republicans know exactly what they are doing. It’s all about the Big Beautiful Bill and dominating the Mid-Terms - Trump already has $700 million in the war chest from donations - and it’s going to keep climbing up until election season.

My only concern is about mid-terms is voter turnout. I would love for Trump to get Lara Trump back to being involved with that because she was a rockstar getting the vote out

Oh.... ok! This slimy, weak, limp wristed, fella has zero credibility. He reminds me of the kid on the playground that can be bullied. He'll always say the things he thinks folks want to hear but only follow thru if he's assured to win.
He'll NEVER stand for whats right if it cost him anything. Based on what he's shown so far. IMHO

Ive said this before, the America First movement needs some type of outlet. Similar to what Scott Pressler did, but on a larger scale.
Something for the folks that don't belong to a discussion board or tune into informative podcast.

This ain't happening. Musk show was theater, overall. B.S. dramatics.

A lot of people I know (in real life) simply do not give a shite about politics - they don’t really watch the news and get involved with X and message boards and all of that - even though they voted for Trump in this last election, I’m worried that they will think that their vote won’t matter for a mid-term - that’s the only thing I am worried about with the mid-terms

Why telegraph your next move? Goal 1 is extend the tax cuts and get done what you can through reconciliation. Don’t frick that up by putting everyone on alert that you’re coming after their pet projects.

You don’t say shite until the first bill is signed.
I get the strategy.

But, despite what the liberals proclaim, DOGE has been very transparent and it was known what they were targeting. There was no hiding it.

The problem is, they are using judicial tyranny to forestall those cuts even before OBB left the committee. The only way to fight that is to make it law, not executive.

So for the DOGE cuts, which not only were well known but already opposed (using lawyers and judges), to "count" towards OBB in the public eye they either had to proceed or happen with the OBB.

You would think that given overwhelming evidence of the judicial coup underway to hamstring the administration, folks would temper their expectations on the timing being employed.

All the arrests in the world tomorrow go right out the window if the cars get assigned to the Jeb Boasbergs of the country.

We've got one shot to do this right. We can finish it by doing it right or we can settle for the peric victory by attempting to do it on a timetable that makes internet message board posters happy, but is completely derailed by a corrupt judiciary.
