🚨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

🧵5 Myths About the Founding Fathers 🇺🇸

The men who gave us the Constitution and Declaration of Independence are smeared, distorted, and misrepresented daily.

Here are the real truths your school, your media, and even some Republicans won’t tell you: 🧵👇 Image
2/ MYTH #1: The Founders wanted a secular nation.

Wrong.

They wanted religious freedom — not freedom from religion.

Jefferson: “Can the liberties of a nation be secure… if we remove their only firm basis — a conviction that these liberties are the gift of God?” Image
3/ Washington in his Farewell Address: “Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports.”

The Founders didn't enact the First Amendment to erase God — they did it to keep government out of the pulpit. Image

🧵 Eric Trump: “America can beat China. And we will.” 🇺🇸

Eric Trump just laid out a powerful vision to restore U.S. manufacturing—and it starts by changing how young people think about work, skills, and success.

Here’s what he said, and why it matters: 🧵👇 Image
2/ During a recent visit to a Ford plant, Eric Trump watched F-150s come off the line every 57 seconds.

“All I could think was:
America can do it better than China.
We do it better than anybody.”

And he’s right. American workers STILL lead the world. Image
3/ China has more people. But we have more productivity.

Eric: “It’s not even close. Our productivity per person is 5x higher. We just need the tools, training, and opportunity.”

What we lack isn’t capacity. It’s leadership—and priorities. Image

🧵BREAKING: New Poll Says JD Vance is MAGA’s Heir Apparent

New 2028 primary polling shows Vice President JD Vance crushing the GOP field by 34 points.

The MAGA base already knows who they want next—and it’s not even close.

Let’s break down what this means.👇 Image
2/ First, the numbers:

• JD Vance — 46%
• Marco Rubio — 12%
• Ron DeSantis — 9%
• Undecided — 17%

No other candidate cracked double digits.

That’s what a MAGA mandate looks like. Image
3/ Back in November, the same poll had 51% undecided.

Now? Vance is up +16 points, while DeSantis and Rubio tread water.

Vance didn’t announce, didn’t campaign. The voters moved to him.

That’s feeling like a movement—not a moment. Image

🧵 The Last Shred of Colin Powell’s Relevance Is Gone — Thank God

Trump just bombed Iran’s nuclear program without occupying Tehran or rebuilding mosques.

The Pottery Barn Doctrine is dead. And Powell's legacy just went with it.

Let’s break it down.👇 Image
2/ Powell’s famous line was:

“If you break it, you own it.”

It became doctrine. But it was always wrong.

America rebuilt Germany and Japan because it served our interests. Not because of guilt or globalist “responsibility.”

That was Powell’s fundamental error. Image
3/ Powell’s greatest failure?

Powell insisted that regime change obligated America to stay forever.

The "Pottery Barn Rule" - "you break it, you buy it" - wasn’t just dumb. It was destructive. Image

🚨BREAKING: Will "Lia" Thomas stripped of NCAA title.

Under a new agreement with the Trump administration, UPenn will remove all titles, records, and honors the 6'1" biological male swimmer won in women’s sports.

And it’s just the beginning. 🧵 Image
2/ 🔥 UPenn agreed to:

• Remove Will “Lia” Thomas’s 2022 women’s championship
• Apologize in writing to every female athlete forced to compete against him
• Ban male athletes from women’s teams, bathrooms, and locker rooms
• Comply fully with Title IX

Finally. Image
3/ 💰 Why did UPenn cave?

Trump suspended $175M in federal funding — and warned hundreds of millions more would follow unless they complied.

This was a Title IX action. Democrats tried to make Title IX all about men pretending to be women. Trump is enforcing it FOR women. Image

🚨 TRUMP: CNN could face prosecution for putting law enforcement at risk.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem: DOJ is exploring legal action.

CNN reported on an app that helps illegal aliens evade ICE — and may have endangered lives.

What’s really going on 🧵 Image
2/ 🛑 The app, called ICEBlock, lets users anonymously report sightings of ICE agents.

CNN celebrated the developer and promoted the app to its viewers — in the middle of a nationwide law enforcement crackdown on illegal immigration. Image
3/ 🔥 ICE Chief Tom Homan didn’t hold back:

“This is horrendous… A national media outlet forecasting law enforcement ops?”

“DOJ needs to look at this. They’re crossing that line.”

“We need to protect our law enforcement officers.” Image
