Republicans aim to make Trump’s 2017 tax cuts permanent by bypassing the Senate parliamentarian—an approach Democrats refused to take to raise the minimum wage.

Whether you read Chuck Schumer as surrendering or taking an unwise but principled stance, one thing is clear: People now want leaders who fight.

Progressives warn that the Republican spending bill would give Trump and Musk sweeping control over federal funds, gut social programs, and set a dangerous precedent—while Senate Democrats waver on whether to fight or fold.
