Details are still fluid but I've seen several numbers now on the IRS number: $1.9b (apparently McCarthy used this on Fox), $10b (the NYT had this when the details broke), and $20b.

I'm tentatively thinking that NYT just fucked up/details changed last minute and it was a $20bn reduction (So $80b increase dropped to $60b) spread over 10 years which would explain why the $1.9b number is around as a per-year thing.

Also seeing reporting that the changes to TANF and food stamps isn't new work requirements but moving the existing age restriction on the already in-place ones from those age 49 and below up to age 54 and below. Which still sucks for those people but is not quite as bad as I feared.

Also seeing that Sinema blew up a good deal of the permitting reform that ended up in the final deal (as in, it's still there but in a much reduced form) because of fucking course she did. (how did she eve get in the negotiating room for this when it was House GOP and Biden?)

Though, naturally, until we see the bill who the fuck knows. But this is my current understanding of what the deal entails.
