No thanks, you know all Americans needed this bill to pass and you chose to go against the voters wishes.

You talk like you have all the answers. Truth is, none of us do, but this is at least a way to work out of the situation we find ourselves in.

The taxpayer fraud is being found every day. They just charged several people stealing from Medicare/medicade. DOGE found $ going to places with no idea what was being paid.

We at least have to try.

Your purity is selective.

You know the CBO numbers are….suspect.

Assume no change in behavior due to the changes.

No offset from increased tariffs - because ‘it’s not a tax’.

And no consideration of ‘what if tax increases are allowed to happen’.

And why give the Ds a tool - debt ceiling - to hold us hostage to get all sorts of egregious junk that they want?

People like you, who only want more taxpayer theft are the problem. Failed basic arithmetic did you?

Does this mean you want more taxes coming out of your check or no tax coming out of your social security?

It is very frustrating. There are other bills that can be passed to lower. We needed this one for the tax savings, Medicaid savings, and the border protection. Go to work on stopping those ludicrous bills that spent stupid money last presidential term. Term the USAID funds, the climate change, NPR spending, national endowment for the arts, and Planned Parenthood. Then you will save money and we will be happy with you.

Rand Paul, you are absolutely correct and both sides are equally corrupt. They don’t give a damn about us middle class people by increasing the debt because if they did it wouldn’t line their pockets with kickbacks! Congressman Massey is on the taxpayers side as is Margorie Taylor Green, all of whom have been attacked by the corrupt mob of congressional and senate mob!

Your one vote meant nothing but it showed that you are not a team player and just want attention like your fellow Kentuckian Massie / Messey in the house.. NOT IMPRESSED

that you are apart of the usual collins, murkowski

Pain in the asses…

So you are smarter than the other 47 who managed to defeat the democrats even if it wasn’t perfect for them either..

THERE IS NO SANITY IN CONGRESS. YES, THE BILL MUST PASS. NO, WE CANNOT ACCEPT THAT MASSIVE INCREASE IN DEBT.

POSSIBLE SOLUTION -- PASS THE BEAUTIFUL BILL. THEN PASS LIMITS ON DEBT THAT IMPOSE BASIC FISCAL SANITY.

Yes, it’s called Right Order.

We would not even be pondering this if we had not stood together and voted DJT into Office.

We are blessed to even be at this Stage so early in his Presidency.

He put Americans Safety first and accomplished that feat after merely 6 months!

When have we been making $$$ during the last 20 yrs of Democrats that was not printed or a stimulus bill etc? “They” got richer.. our Country suffered. The only way we can make America Great Again is if we help make “Ameri-CANS” Great Again!

This Bill is about just that.

The fruits of the “no-taxes” on tips, SS, the Trump Baby $ etc. for middle Americans are life altering and will be multiplied in years to come.

We now have the greatest President probably of all time next to Lincoln who has had 2 assassination attempts and literally taken a bulletin for all of us out of love for our Country.

What is not to trust? He has not shown otherwise. He has formed a great Cabinet of like-minded leaders and is problem solving in many different areas at once. I pray for his safety every day and we don’t have him long, just another 3 1/3 yrs so I believe in trusting who we elected and put into Office. The time to get off of

the Fence was before he was

elected. Without loyalty nothing

else really matters does it?

May God continue to bless him and our great USA. 🙏💓🙏

To doubt that he cannot make us financially better as a Country is a fools bet. That’s what he does best!!!

We need Omnibus bills to go. Lot’s of waste in this budget. I get it with Musk, he’s pissed, all the work with DOGE for what? A $9.2 billion cut reduction codified, that’s it? I call Uniparty BS.

Yes, of course it should have been done, but Congress takes so many days off they get little done. 🤬🤬🤬

The budget cuts have to be in a separate bill due to reconciliation rules. Yes we need no more omnibus bills, but this bill needed passed to keep the tax cuts and border funding. A separate bill needs to be finalized to reduce spending and make DOGE actions permanent.

We’ll see about the reconciliation bills passing, shouldn’t that have been done already beyond the initial $9 billion cut?

As a fiscal conservative I vote no on Rand Paul. Too dogmatic to stand behind Trump who is trying to work with lawmakers to make real change. And he’s succeeding except with people like Paul. Stop trying to stand out. You look silly.

Americans voted Republican who advertised fiscal sanity - to get us out of debt and make our dollar strong. To increase debt and give perks to illegals is a slap in the face to Americans.

The CBO is brainless and rarely accurate. The facts are, this country is bankrupt. Without a solid plan to turn this around we are in huge hard times to come. Its going to take time to turn things around. But Jobs, factories, tariffs, major investment, eliminating all the government agencies waste.......which all takes some time are on their way. We wont see results for about a year, but when it hits this country will be roaring huge and government revenue will be through the roof. If you stop Trump from being the first and probably the only person with a plan, to actually finally try to tackle this head on, we are doomed. The congress has had the chance for way too long and the only plan they had was more debt without the plan and screw things up more. And sank this country. So why are some GOP now siding with the Dems now to stop an actual plan?

Just what bill would you support? It seems like you are always negative on everything. You obviously don’t know the meaning of compromise.
