Tensions rise as Trump lashes out at conservative rebels resisting his “megabill.”
Donald Trump expressed fury today toward dissenting House Republicans who refuse to back his tax-and-spending package . The measure, dubbed the “Big Beautiful Bill,” includes sweeping elements—from tax relief to immigration enforcement funding and social-program cuts.
On Truth Social, Trump called the holdouts “ridiculous” and warned that MAGA voters would remember their votes, framing the bill’s passage as vital to conservative credibility . His tone underscores intensifying pressure within the Republican Conference as the final vote nears.
The rift comes into sharp relief as some moderates balk at healthcare cuts, while hardliners push back on deficit fears. Five Republicans voted against the initial procedural motion, making clear that party unity is far from assured.
As Capitol Hill braces for a decisive moment, Trump’s messaging reflects high-stakes brinkmanship: achieve passage before July 4—or face backlash from MAGA’s base.
