"Big Beautiful (?) Bill" Passes Cloture Vote, Now In "Vote-a-Rama" Phase for Amendments

The Democrats are proposing dozens and dozens of amendments just to delay the final vote.


The Senate launched the vote-a-rama after wrapping up debate on Sunday night, with Republicans prepared to defend and strengthen Trump's signature legislation.
The bill extends the Trump tax cuts, reforms federal programs like Medicaid, and includes work requirements designed to restore accountability.
Republicans, led by Lindsey Graham and Mike Crapo, pushed back hard against Democrat attacks, calling out Washington gimmicks and defending the bill as a pro-growth, pro-taxpayer package.

Diving Deeper:

After a lengthy debate that stretched from Sunday into early Monday, the Senate entered the final stage before a full vote on President Trump's "big, beautiful bill." The legislation, which aims to lock in key tax cuts, implement long-overdue reforms, and rein in federal waste, now faces a barrage of amendments in what's known as a vote-a-rama.

Senate Republicans are holding the line as Democrats attempt to derail the package with endless amendments designed to stall and sabotage. The bill is expected to deliver sweeping benefits to working families, small businesses, and American taxpayers, while restoring integrity to programs like Medicaid by enforcing work requirements and ending abuse.

Senate Budget Committee Chair Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., strongly defended the reforms to Medicaid, a program that exploded in size after Obamacare enticed states to expand it to working-age adults with no disabilities. "It's a good thing for the individual to be working. It's a good thing for the taxpayer," Graham noted. "But that seems to be a crime on the other side."

While most Republicans are united behind the bill, a handful have expressed concerns. Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., and Sen. Thom Tillis, R-N.C., opposed a procedural vote Saturday night, citing different objections.

Trump threatened to primary RINO Thom Tillis. Tillis responded hours later by announcing he would not be running for reelection, which I believe was already decided. Because Trump was going to primary him either way, and he was going to lose.

Lara Trump, who polls say would win the seat in the general election if she's nominated, says she's "strongly considering" a run.

Lara Trump is "strongly considering" a run for U.S. Senate in North Carolina, according to sources close to the Trump family. Her potential bid follows Sen. Thom Tillis' announcement that he will not seek reelection after opposing President Trump's signature legislative package.

Key Details:

Two sources, speaking to NOTUS and NBC News respectively, said Lara Trump is giving the Senate race "serious" thought, with one describing the chances as "high."
Tillis, who recently clashed with President Trump over the "Big Beautiful Bill," confirmed his retirement Sunday.
Lara Trump, 42, is a Wilmington native and a former co-chair of the RNC, where she oversaw fundraising efforts and convention planning.

Eh.

Using name recognition to ensure victory in a purple state's senate seat during a midterm is...fine.

It's not long term healthy, potentially, but it helps keep the seat in hands that are better than Tillis'.

165 The Bushes were shit because the Bushes were shit. Their two-man "dynasty" with associated hangers-on was one of deep swamp saturation, not genetics. Swamp is swamp regardless of the crotch it slid out of.

We don't know how any of the Trumps will be in a real position because they haven't done anything yet except for Ivanka pissing everyone off with her husband, and Don Jr. playing social media intern. And if they're the real concern, then side-stepping actual progeny in favor of a daughter-in-law for a sinecure is a relatively anti-dynastic thing to do.

Either way, if the choice is between Trump Proto-dynasts or proven GOPe cuckolds who've never seen a back they didn't put a knife or a dick into, I'll take the dynasty every day of the week. Sandbagging Okay in the name of principle so that Shit can win instead is the cuckiest GOPiest game going.

I get the frustration but reconciliation bills are a real thing with actual rules. That's why it only takes 51 votes in the Senate and not 60. That's why this will pass because of flaming assholes like Rand and Tillis.

In order to get some good stuff we are going to get shit we hate because a lot of "Republican" senators are grifting assholes who wouldn't vote for the good stuff without getting their balls tickled.

Democrats hate this bill with the intensity of 10 suns. I'll take the W.

In Thomas, the silent h is fine, that's a proper name. But, Thom is a nickname, so you just add it for a flourish, and if pronounced like it's spelled, it gives the name Tom a gay affectation.

Someone was running plenty of proBBB ads in NC for a couple of months now. Then the last two weeks another group started running antiBBB ads about Medicaid and mentioning Tillis. Then Tillis folded like a cheap suit. Though I half suspect that Tillis has those ads ran to give him the opportunity to fold on BBB.

Tillis is really just a pro big business Democrat.
