🚨BREAKING: The Senate just launched the final push to pass Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill.”

It’s a 940-page MAGA manifesto: tax cuts, border security, energy dominance, and Medicaid reform.

Here’s what’s in it—and why the Left is panicking. 🧵 Image
2/ The bill passed its first Senate hurdle this weekend (51–49).

Democrats tried to stall with a 16-hour bill reading stunt. Now it’s time for a "vote-a-rama" — a nonstop series of votes on amendments running late into the night.

Final passage could come Tuesday morning. Image
3/ This is the culmination of months of negotiations.

The bill includes:

✅ Extension of Trump tax cuts
✅ Mandatory E-Verify
✅ Funding for new border wall
✅ Deep cuts to IRS & “green energy” boondoggles
✅ Rollback of Biden-era regs
✅ Stronger work requirements for welfare Image
4/ The Senate bill tightens welfare across the board:

🔹 Work requirements: 80 hours/month for Medicaid
🔹 Cuts to SNAP (food stamps) fraud
🔹 Caps provider taxes used by blue states to game federal Medicaid $$$
🔹 Adds a $25B rural hospital rescue fund (Collins wants $100B) Image
5/ Sen. Rick Scott objects to another provision: raising the SALT cap to $40K.

He’s right. SALT favors high-tax blue states and subsidizes their failure.

But House moderates demanded it. Without SALT, Johnson may not have the votes to pass it through the House.Image
Image
6/ Rand Paul won’t vote for it unless the $5 trillion debt ceiling hike is removed.

The House version raised it by $4T. The Senate upped it to $5T. CBO rules forced it.

Trump says it’s temporary—HUGE cuts are coming.

7/ Senate Republicans can only afford 3 defections.

If 4 GOP Senators vote no, the bill dies. But if it’s tied 50–50, Vice President JD Vance casts the deciding vote.

And he will.

The GOP is this close to delivering one of the biggest conservative wins since 2017. Image
8/ This bill repeals the Biden years, finishes what Trump started, averts the biggest tax hike in American history, and proves elections still matter.

Stay tuned. The final vote is coming.

🇺🇸 Let’s finish this. Image

🚨 BREAKING: Senate PASSES Trump’s ‘One Big Beautiful Bill’ — @VP JD Vance casts the tie-breaking vote.

After a marathon all-night vote-a-rama, the Senate has passed the biggest policy bill of Trump’s second term.

Here’s what’s in it — and what happens next. 🧵 Image
@VP 2/ Trump’s signature bill nearly died in the Senate.
It came down to a 50–50 tie. VP JD Vance broke it.

Conservatives and RINOs clashed on border security, Medicaid, tax reform, and the deficit.

After intense backroom deals, it passed by the narrowest of margins. Image
@VP 3/ What’s in the bill?

• Prevents biggest tax hike in U.S. history
• Makes 2017 Trump tax cuts permanent
• Ends taxes on tips & overtime
• Ends Biden green energy credits
• Funds border wall & deportations
• Reforms Medicaid

It’s huge. And now its on to the House. Image

🚨 THREAD: GOP Senators FIRE BACK at Elon Musk’s threat to primary Trump allies over the Big Beautiful Bill

Trump wants his signature bill passed. Musk says: “Vote yes, and you're done.”

The Senate's response? 🔥Not exactly shaking.

🧵Let’s break it down:
2/ • Sen. Roger Marshall (KS):

“I’ll take President Trump’s endorsement over Elon’s any day of the week.”
“We’re ignoring him. Let’s get this bill across the finish line.” Image
3/ • Sen. Tommy Tuberville (AL):

“Bottom line — 51 of us are going to vote for this tonight.”

“I agree with Elon on energy innovation — but not on subsidies. Let the market work, like he did.” Image

🚨NEW: France BEGS Trump to Extend the Tariff Deadline

Trump’s 90-day ultimatum to America’s trade partners expires July 9.

France wants more time.

Trump says: No.

Here’s how his hardline strategy is forcing the world to play by America’s rules again. 🧵 Image
2/ On April 2, Trump reimposed reciprocal tariffs.

You hit us with 20%? We hit you with 20%.

For the EU, that meant a 20% tariff across the board—paused for 90 days to give them a chance to strike a deal.

That deadline hits July 9. No deal? Tough.

rodmartin.org/p/icymi-the-fr…
3/ France is stalling for time. It wants to keep its unfair deal.

France’s finance minister wants another extension.

But Trump made it clear: There won’t be one. Image

🚨BREAKING: China’s Economy Still Tanking

Factory activity in China contracted for the 3rd straight month, despite a temporary trade truce with the U.S.

Here’s what that means for Trump’s trade war, U.S. dominance—and the CCP’s unraveling. 🧵👇 Image
2/ China’s PMI just came in at 49.7.

That’s three months below 50—the line between growth and decline.

Translation: Factories are shrinking, and Xi Jinping can’t stop it.

U.S. tariffs are biting deep—and China is bleeding industrial power.

rodmartin.org/p/china-cant-w…
3/ Exports are collapsing.

New export orders have contracted 14 months in a row.

June’s reading? A dismal 47.7.

Chinese shipments to the U.S. fell 34.5% year-over-year in May—the steepest drop since COVID.

🚨 BREAKING: Top 6 Policies Affected By the Supreme Court's Crackdown on Nationwide Injunctions.

No more “One Judge to Rule Them All.”

Here are 6 MAJOR Trump policies that can now move forward thanks to this landmark ruling. 🧵👇 Image
1. Defunding Sanctuary Cities 🏙️🚫

Federal judges blocked Trump from cutting off funds to cities that harbor illegal aliens.

No more.

Thanks to SCOTUS, Trump can now strip funding from any city that refuses to enforce federal law — just like the Constitution requires. Image
2. Voter ID and Citizenship Verification 🗳️🧾

Trump’s order requiring voter ID and proof of citizenship was blocked by liberal judges in MA and WA.

That’s done now.

Trump can now enforce election integrity nationwide — no judge can override it with a stroke of the pen. Image

🚨BREAKING: Trump to open new illegal immigrant detention facility in the Everglades—nicknamed “Alligator Alcatraz.”

Up to 5,000 criminal aliens will be held, processed & deported from this remote base deep in the Florida swamp.

This is just AWESOME. 🧵 Image
2/ It sits at the old Dade-Collier Jetport—planned in 1968 to be the largest airport on Earth.

Only one runway was ever built. Now Trump & @RonDeSantis are making it a symbol of border security.

"There’s only one road in—and a one-way flight out." 💥

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dade-Coll…
@RonDeSantis 3/ White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt:

“It is isolated and surrounded by dangerous wildlife and unforgiving terrain.”

Translation: No soft-on-crime jailbreaks here. You escape, you meet the alligators. Or the pythons.

Self-deportation is starting to look pretty good Image
