Plain English with Derek ThompsonTrump’s Big, Beautiful Bill Is Great for the "Stealthy Wealthy"The tax and spending bill passed by House Republicans last week is the sort of bill that does so many different things that even budget experts could be forgiven for not realizing just how many different parts of the economy it will change.
In the realm of workers' comp, the bill would eliminate taxes on overtime pay and tips. In terms of families, it would create new $1,000 savings accounts for children and give parents an extra $500 per year per child, in the form of an expanded child tax credit. In the realm of health and the culture wa...

Talking TaxA Budget Watchdog Veteran Warns GOP Tax Bill to Hike DeficitHouse Republicans are moving quickly to get a massive tax-and-spending package across the finish line before week's end even as they negotiate with party factions over outstanding concerns.
Some Republicans are demanding deeper cuts to social programs like Medicaid to curb deficits as part of the deal and to reduce the package's cost to extend the 2017 tax overhaul. And yet the bill increases the debt limit by $4 trillion and adds billions in spending. Cut out of the process, Democrats oppose the proposal, and even some Republicans have objected to its size and scope.

AURN NewsTrump’s Spending Under Fire After U.S. Credit Downgrade(AURN News) — President Donald Trump’s fiscal policies are under renewed scrutiny after Moody’s downgraded the U.S. credit rating from Aaa to Aa1, citing the nation’s rising debt, widening deficits and mounting interest costs.
While Moody’s did not name Trump in its downgrade announcement, the agency pointed to long-term trends that have intensified under his administration. Federal spending has increased sharply, and Trump has called for extending the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act — moves that analysts say are worsening the country’s fiscal outlook.
