House Passes One Big Beautiful Bill

Sure hope there are no Republicans in nursing homes… If the bill passes, more than half of nursing homes would be forced to cut staff and a quarter of them would close -
"kills the poor and pays the rich" Same ol communist/democrat referenda. Here's a novel idea: stop taking free stuff and get rich. It's not really that hard. oh, and stop buying 1200 dollar phones, 8 dollar drinks, and driving that 45,000 vehicle you can't afford. A lot of people aren't poor by accident.

https://www.nytimes.com/2025/06/29/upshot/republicans-medicaid-cuts-paperwork.html “The Republicans decided on the talking point that they wanted to say, ‘We didn’t cut anyone’s benefits,’” said Diane Whitmore Schanzenbach, a professor at Northwestern who studies food assistance. “So instead they’re going to say, ‘Well, we’re going to really squeeze folks that we think should be working.’” The Trump administration has prided itself on deregulation, cutting rules for business processes throughout the government. But when it comes to antipoverty programs, this agenda moves in the opposite direction, making individuals work harder to prove they qualify for government programs. Federal and state agencies would also need to build vast new bureaucracies to measure and monitor the new paperwork. Republican lawmakers, White House officials and researchers who advise them argue that the extra paperwork and processes are a way of ensuring that only the truly worthy can access government help. “If you’re going to be on the public wagon, you have to do something to help pull it, if you’re able,” House Speaker Mike Johnson said last month in a CNN interview, in which he said Republicans “are not cutting Medicaid.” The bill does make some direct cuts to Medicaid funding, but most of its health care savings come from administrative changes. That’s a significantly different strategy from the Republicans’ attempt to repeal Obamacare in 2017, which would have directly reduced federal spending on health programs, and was thus easier for opponents to attack. But Democrats are trying. Chuck Schumer, the Senate’s Democratic leader, has said tens of millions of Americans would be “mummified in new red tape.” Decades of evidence show that administrative barriers prevent vulnerable families from receiving benefits, while simplifying programs can increase use. In the first Trump administration, more frequent Medicaid eligibility checks led to losses in health coverage for more than a million poor children. Studies of student aid applications have shown that programs that help families fill out the forms boost college participation. They can't figure out how to fill out an application? Do they belong in college? 🤷♂️

Communists are always concerned with other peoples money. democrats say the same ***** ... over and over...billionaires blah blah blah...go out and become a billionaire instead of whining what someone else has... This billionaire bs is pulled by democrats because they know the lazy youth will get infuriated with this lie and vote democrat. They love the low iq vote. Personally I'd like to see a breakdown of what your so called billionaires tax cost vs the massive amounts of welfare being handed out in this country. -
I was wondering where you had gotten to. 🤔

“The Democratic Party are Marxist Communists Socialists and also they are the party of the billionaires.” -MAGA logic Meanwhile, the party that received the overwhelming majority of donations from billionaires, is led by a billionaire, has a cabinet full of billionaires, and is trying to pass a bill that basically nobody likes that gives huge windfalls to billionaires while raising costs for average Americans is *not* the party of billionaires. Got it. -
This board sucks, all we do around here is talk about wide receivers than the mods come here every morning to bump the threads. You guys are really pissing Brandon Bean off...

Another Marv Levy mistake. Shortly after he was drafted I was at a Univ. of Virginia baseball game. Sitting next to me was a guy who had a kid on the opposing team and we got to talking. He told me he was a regional scout for an AFC east franchise. Didn't name it, but I figured it was probably the Ravens. Anyway, I asked him if he knew anything about Ko Simpson and he made this face gesture with eyes rolling which I assumed to be a negative view. He said ya, he knew about him and then said "Believe the Wonderlic."

If you speak to anyone with any knowledge around the Browns they will confirm it. I don't know how much of bringing in Watson was him. But he was the one who wanted Baker out. -

Sorry I'm a bit late seeing this comment, I was wondering what you've seen and how you know this about him hating and it being his call? -
No problem I tend to keep a fairly low profile other than game threads. Awesome place and people’s here.

Why do you think he’s hit his ceiling? What indicates that? I tend to think that people get better at their job over time given more experience. I’d say McD has done that up to this point, so why should he stop now? That’s the way it’s supposed to work, and from my experience how it typically goes.

Though I feel we have seen his ceiling as a coach, I could never be so happy to be told to piss off as I would if he leads the Bills to a SB win. -
I think Knox’s hands are just fine. They’ve improved a lot over the last few seasons

I may be sorry I asked this, but where does one go to find highlight footage of an incomplete pass thrown by a rookie quarterback in the second half of a preseason game? A friend of mine wants to know.
