🚨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

🚨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

🚨 TRUMP’S IRAN STRIKE CHANGED THE GAME

The media doesn’t want to talk about it, but Trump just did what every president since Clinton promised to do:

He obliterated Iran’s nuclear weapons program—and changed the Middle East forever.

Here’s what really happened: 🧵 Image
2/ Since 1995, every U.S. president vowed Iran would never get the bomb.

But for 30 years, Iran laughed and kept building.

Until June 22, 2025—when President Trump launched Operation Midnight Hammer and did what none of them dared. Image
3/ Seven B-2 bombers flew 18+ hours from Whiteman AFB to Iran.

Each carried two 30,000 lb. MOPs—ground-penetrating bombs.

In 120 seconds over enemy airspace, they obliterated Iran’s three key nuclear sites: Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan.

Precision. No warning. No leaks.

🚨BREAKING: Supreme Court to Hear GOP Campaign Finance Case

SCOTUS just took up a case that could blow up the 1970s-era campaign finance regime.

At stake? Whether political parties can freely spend to support their own candidates — including Trump allies like JD Vance.🧵Image
2/ The case — NRSC v. FEC — was brought by:

• The NRSC
• The NRCC
• Two Senate candidates (including now–VP JD Vance)

They argue that spending limits on party support violate the First Amendment.

And they're right.Image
3/ Restrictions on party spending make no sense. The idea of the statute is to block unaccountable money.

But money from the parties IS regulated, IS disclosed, and IS for the purpose of supporting candidates.

Meanwhile, Super PACs can raise and spend all they want. Image

THREAD: One Judge to Rule Them All? Not Anymore.

🚨On the last day of its term, the Supreme Court STRUCK DOWN the abuse of nationwide injunctions — restoring the separation of powers and ending a major weapon used to paralyze Trump’s presidency.

Here’s why it matters. 👇Image
2/ This morning, I wrote an entire Deep Dive on this. It's so important I even made it FREE for all readers. You should check it out.

But this thread has key points and highlights.

rodmartin.org/p/one-judge-to…
3/ For years, radical district judges — usually in deep-blue jurisdictions — have issued sweeping rulings blocking entire federal policies nationwide.

Not just for the plaintiff.

Not just in their district.

For everyone, everywhere.

It's unconstitutional. It ends now. ⚖️ Image
