The Heaven's Gate Healthcare Cut
Republicans drank the BBB Kool-Aid. You wont believe what happens next!

The Big Beautiful Bill is Donald Trump’s latest Kool-Aid cocktail, served ice-cold to the glassy-eyed or terror-stricken cultists in Congress. Picture it: a garish blend of political polonium and economic arsenic, hand-mixed by a man whose only guiding ideology is self-worship.

Like Jim Jones passing out grape-flavored cyanide in the jungle, Trump is demanding loyalty unto political death…and once again, the red-hatted true believers (and those who play them in Congress) are lining up for their final gulp.

Except instead of dying in a jungle compound, they’re about to die politically in swing districts and suburbs, while trying to explain why they gutted Medicaid to protect tax breaks for billionaires. Before the poison closes their eyes, the pain will show up in polls, town hall meetings, and the tragic deaths of the very people they were elected to represent.

They know they’re doomed. No amount of giddy spin or cocky tweets will change that. They know the revolver is almost fully loaded, but they’re taking one more spin in their idiotic game of Republican Roulette.
