House Republicans just managed to pass its jam-packed, multi trillion-dollar spending bill to fund Donald Trump’s second-term agenda. It includes major cuts and changes to Medicaid and SNAP in order to deliver large tax cuts to the wealthy. “It is a piece of garbage,” former Democratic Senator Jon Tester of Montana told Ali Velshi. Tester says, like Trump’s tariffs, it will hurt farmers and worsen pre-existing problems in rural America, which could lead to “an even bigger mass exodus” of people out of those areas. “It doesn’t deal with the issues,” he says. “It puts a band aid over the issues in production and agriculture, just like it puts a band aid over our national debt.”
