'People Will Die': Hakeem Jeffries, Chuck Schumer Cannot Handle This Bill
Town Hall ^ | 6 June 2025 | Rebecca Downs

Posted on 06/07/2025 5:53:15 AM PDT by Rummyfan

As President Donald Trump and Elon Musk find themselves in a feud over, among other things, the big, beautiful bill, it's worth reminding that that doesn't suddenly put Democrats in a better spot. As many members, including top leaders, appear to be excited over X when it comes to the Trump-Musk feud, they're also not handling the bill too well. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) are both chief examples with this.

Earlier this week, Schumer gave remarks while standing beside fellow desperate Democrats in which he nicknamed the bill the "Well, We're All Going to Die Act." As he pounded the podium for emphasis, Schumer tried to claim that "Donald Trump is just lying about the bill, lying about the bill." He then referenced the bill by the name he and his colleagues prefer to give it.

It's not just clips from Rapid Response 47, shared by Scott Jennings who stressed these people are not worth taking seriously, "ever again ever." Schumer himself has posted incessantly about the bill, over a dozen times since Monday, in fact. Most of his posts refer to it as Trump's "Big, Ugly Bill," as well as claim that the president has lied.

I think we should shrink the Child Tax Credit and the Earned Income Credit by the amount of the national debt increase.

The Child Tax Credit might be based on the previous fiscal year deficit [full if deficit < $1 trillion, reduced by the percentage of the deficit in excess of $1 trillion] or get reduced by the amount of the national debt increase.

That’s right.

We all die some day.

Nothing can stop that.

So it behooves them to make their peace with their Maker NOW.

Sorry Skyhook. People are dying because of your Muzzie and illegal alien overload. You and all of your granola “judgies” need to be locked up before you kill more Americans and Jews.

Instead of measuring hours worked weekly, what could be done is to require previous year income to exceed say:
1. 200 times the federal minimum wage as of January 1, 2025 in 2025 to get coverage after April 2026
2. 400 times the federal minimum wage as of January 1, 2026 in 2026 to get coverage after April 2027
3. 600 times the federal minimum wage as of each January 1, thereafter to get coverage after April of the following year.

Remember bosses determine how much people work to a large extent. The purpose is to move people into the workforce.

The income requirements might be cut by up 50% for education if states choose.

The states might allow people to pay say 10 cents monthly for each hourly shortfall - i.e. a $60 monthly premium at most.

To make the BBB more palatable, it might contain a minimum wage increase ($10/hour Chapter S employers, $12 other employers).

The guy in the other room here in Tijuana makes about $27/hour driving for Doordash.

So the question here for all those rich and powerful people like Schumer, and for us too, is when we pass do we RIP or face God and explain why we lived like we did.

Republicans should fight this with explaining how people will thrive when this bill is signed.

My suggestion to save would be to cancel all Congressional healthcare paid by taxpayers.

We know most of that 15 million are illegals they have imported in the last 4 years. Many citizens have been cut because of the RAT imported illegal voters hogging up what was meant for citizens.

Why are you so concerned Skyhook? You the Grand Booga Booga of the Party of Death, the DemonRATS.

Maybe so but it doesn’t compare to the number of folks that die under socialism.

Nor the green death cult.

1) True enough...we are all going to die. (I know... please hold the rapture debate for a religion thread....)

2) The party of Abortion and Euthanasia and Death by Vaccine and Trans violence and Polar Bear hunting and mostly peaceful demonstrations is gaslighting you by pretending that they are not doing everything they can to speed up this process. They need you educated white people to die so they can bring in a voting base with more favorable voting habits.

3) I am amazed that Senator Schumer and some of the superannuated D leadership have not already died choking on their daily regurgitated lies.

“The Trump tariffs insure that those exempt from income tax pay their fare share”

The US government spends nearly $20,000/US resident/year.
