Important clarification……………BBB
So to reiterate: The “ban Medicaid for illegal immigrants” amendment failed because it didn’t reach the 60-vote threshold—but the original ban was already in the bill.
The bill that the Senate just passed.
A massive victory for America First.

AND
The original plan was always to use rescission bills to cut out the DOGE waste. Per Senate rules, the rescissions/cuts cannot be done until after the initial funding bill is passed (BBB). Timeline:
1) July – BBB
2) Aug – Rescission bills to cut DOGE waste
3) Sept – Budget bill

Peter Navarro – The FAKE NEWS is WRONG about the One Big Beautiful Bill. Here’s what they won’t tell you.
Media pundits are getting the One Big Beautiful Bill wrong. It isn’t just a tax cut — it’s a structural reset:
– Lower income taxes
– Strategic tariffs
– Pro-growth policy

Which specific Recission Bills are ready to go and will be voted on immediately upon Congress’ return from vacation, and how much will be the cost savings to the taxpayers? I suspect not even one Recission Bill has been written and is ready to be voted on. John Tyler
The largest funding cuts in the Rescissions Act of 2025 (H.R. 4) target $2.5 billion in development assistance (out of $3.9 billion appropriated for fiscal 2025 for such purpose) and $1.65 billion for the Economic Support Fund that promotes economic and political stability in other countries. It claws back a little more than $1 billion for global health programs and operating expenses at the U.S. Agency for International Development, which the Trump administration is attempting to fold into the State Department.
Additionally, the bill slashes nearly $1.1 billion for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which would effectively eliminate federal funding for NPR and PBS. Trump in May issued an executive order to cease funding to the news outlets, arguing that they don’t report the news in a fair, accurate or unbiased manner.

Thanks K2
Very Good Explanation ….it’s a very complex Bill and it needs to Pass or Trump will be Trumped
Its NOT a tax cut bill.
Its a bill that extends EXISTING cuts (from T 45), INSTEAD of letting them lapse in January.
The best argument for the bill is to AVOID that happening next year.
The 2nd best argument is what K2 laid out. That what conservatives really want is coming, but NEXT.
