Our floundering president is claiming that if the monstrosity he calls his "Big, Beautiful Bill" doesn't pass, the people of this country will suffer a tax increase of 68%. FactCheck.org explains the mathematical gymnastics required to arrive at that number.
And he's trying to sell that bill with a whole lot o' lying as The New York Times points out. Glenn Kessler of the Washington Post also points out the untruths that Trump's minions are spreading about the Congressional Budget Office's scoring of the bill
Also, Steve Benen points out the efforts of G.O.P. leaders to prevent the C.B.O. from doing its job of analyzing bills like the supposed "Big, Beautiful" one. It's even working on some of their own…like Marjorie Taylor Greene who's now saying she voted for the bill without knowing everything that is in it.
Meanwhile, Mr. Kessler also notes how the White House is lying about fraud in the Social Security system. But of course.
