Krasnov wants to sign it on July 4th. To add as much salt to the wound as possible.

Just read it gives DUmp the ability to cancel elections
Notice how all the shit doesn't take effect until after midterms. However tax breaks are immediate. maga are such easily manipulated tools
Too late Tillis.
“Break’s Trump’s promises…” Clearly a rhetorical flourish, since the cult members believe nothing critical and those of us capable of thought and with a memory of the last few years know that Trump’s promises mean nothing.
That’s what we needed him to do! 👏
This is the guy who voted for every Trump budget there was and is now retiring? OK buddy.
It's the same approach Trump has to prenups: "just sign it, I have to get it off in the mail tonight"

Imagine if dozens of MAGATs grew spines, also!
Except that Trump *always* intended for people to be thrown off Medicaid. #TrumpAlwaysLies
My senator is going to find himself deported, talking like that.
I'll glad to see this but let's not fool ourselves, he still supports most of what's in this budget. He said as much on the floor.
I listen to these Republicans say Medicaid is not for the ablebodied, healthy men. Well, any insurance company will tell you those are exactly the people we want because they cost nothing. What money does Medicaid spend on those healthy people? The money is always spent on those who need it.
Illegal. Get everyone together and sue them all
We need to be 26 million or more on Friday. We cannot lose momentum. They didn't seem to hear us at 13 million. Please Americans, Make A Protest Your Patriotic Duty. youtu.be/WcGQy6Vt6hY?...
Watch he’ll vote yes.
I just called senators to complain about the horrendous bill. Everyone I called had a live person pick up. That means no one is calling. Do people not realize the brutality of this bill? That BILLIONS of dollars go to ICE? Huge cuts to Medicaid? MORE tax welfare ONLY for the 1%? CALL PEOPLE!
No. People do not realize. It’s not on TV and FOX is illegally lying about it ( with no consequences)
Just a reminder of who Thom Tillis is: In 2013, as N.C. House Speaker, he passed a massive voter suppression law that was struck down because it targeted Black voters "with almost surgical precision.” In the Senate he voted against the Freedom to Vote Act and the John R. Lewis Voting Right Act.
Nobody thinks he’s a hero but he did good today.
I'm not applauding. He's not running for re-election. He's coward, he's taking his money and leaving. That's anything but heroic.
At least his legacy will be standing up and voting "no" on the "BBB" when most of his fellow Republicans are supporting this horrendous piece of legislation. This is a break with the propaganda machine that is the Republican party and we need more of them to speak/stand up for their constituents.
Better than most R’s today.
No actually he's not you've rad what's been posted about him, right? It's true. Don't paint him as a hero, he's not helping us. He's just going to peace out and let us deal with it. That's not actively helping. He's just taking his money and going home. He's not going to lose any sleep over this.
GOP cries when democrats rush bills,but its ok when they do it
I know he's bad and all, but he understands he is putting his life in real danger by saying all this.
Wow he’s feels free!
Trump wants the bill signed by July 4th to coincide with the holiday. It’s a show for him. The barricades in DC are going up because he will be implementing the insurrection act (or calling out the national guard in all 50 states) to round up our neighbors for deportation.
Too bad the TV media didn’t tell Americans all the 50 different state names for Medicad. That would have been NEWS. Social Media posts may be important but the REAL IMPACT is from TV. Please increase your bookings.You are a refreshing fearless voice and much appreciated.
Tillis finally has a halfway reasonable approach to something, then resigns.
Of course, showing up Trump as a damn liar about Medicaid is not showing proper deference to Sa Majesté le Roi
Trump's "promises".
We could see that trump had an almost eerie hold on republicans, and it's likely that it's his threat of "no endorsement" and "primary challenge" that they fear most. They lose their cush job if they go against him.
They should just tell him they’ll hold the vote in 2 Weeks.
Every Republican Senator could rally against the bill and Trump would not be able to do anything about it. Is he going to threaten to primary every Senator?
It's like they don't even worry about being reelected. 🤔 What was that Trump sad about just vote this time and you'll never have to vote again
Thank you for this. Real increase to debt under Trumpublicans is - - - WAIT - - - $5, count 'em, FIVE TRILLION DOLLARS!!! "T" trillions. It's the best pork ever, in the Pig Pukingful Pill!!!!! youtube.com/shorts/rGqc_...
Too late Tommy…
On Tue every newspaper TV outlet in US better have the number of people who will lose their health care by congressional district, increases in ACA costs due to lack cost support & statewide along w/ loss of local hospitals & then any adverse business dealings.
They all know exactly what this bill does which is why they are trying to ram it through before dt loses his "momentum" & becomes the EM of his own administration. Too bad Sen Tillis didn't find his back Bbone on the Hegseth or Kennedy confirmations but better late than not at all.
If passed, the bill triggers the 2010 Pay as you Go law, which automatically cuts Medicare. So a double whammy!
And now that he will not run next year, he can be brave about standing up for rule of law, education, health, safety , and peace. Please!
His promises mean nothing
It's not a good look to see it just crammed through without people getting to review and vote on it. It should be publicly debated, as that helps to find bugs, the public's limit etc.
Stop this budget bill CALL your senators You, your children, grandchildren, and your aging parents are depending on YOU @5calls.org
And he has been doing this for months in response to ALL of our voices in NC for which he deserves credit.
So good to see
Maybe the state's too purple?? 🤔 and he's screwed either way?
Well, well... NC tells the truth
Ego deadline for King Tithead
Sweet Jesus, I have to agree with Tillis!?!
The deadline is that the Pig wants to use its signing as a propaganda stunt for the 4th.
Yup. We need to delay it as long as possible. If that means speaking in slow motion, DO IT!
Exactly. All to the cheers of his adoring cult.
I always get this guy confused with Mel Tillis, the country singer who stuttered when he talked but sang like a bird. This guy talks clear as day - wonder if he stutters when he sings.
Trump, promises? What fucking world does one live in where “Trumps promises” have any value at all!!! Fucking self deluded fascists looking for excuses, there are none, you are a fascist cuck
Can we please remember that when these Republican politicians open their mouth that 99% of the time it’s a fucking lie…..
Convenient! He’s got nothing to lose now! 🤬🤬🤬
5calls.org
He is another coward. Should have spoken out about it before
Yet he’ll vote for it eventually
Sure T dawg, now that you’re not running again you can so “courageous”. I love how in his announcement about not seeking reelection, the blamed democrats
bsky.app/profile/kens...
His Majesty breaks his promise? Such heresy can only be said when one is not running for re-election.
Hmm Tom grew a spine!
On this ONE budgetary item! He said he would vote for this budget if they kept the House version. I worry that he may pull a "Susan Collins" when it is time to vote. 😟
Mark your calendars folks, an elected Republican in office told the truth! 😯
I guarantee if he talked like this all the time he could beat anybody MAGA puts up to primary him
The bill is going to pass, but I do think Democrats get a teeny tiny win forcing this till Monday AM when MAGA wanted it on the floor Friday night. Other than that? It's as bad as it's been since Harris lost.
Glad to see Tillis show up, but he's a little late to the game.
The fucking traitors don't care what's in the bill. Their master says jump, and they jump.
Too little, too late. Most disingenuous.
SLOW THE BILL DOWN. He's 100% correct.
Trump? Break a promise?
bsky.app/profile/af68...
This will end it all if the BBB passes, sen Sheldon whitehouse feed
Trump NEVER keeps a promise that doesn’t have to do with Revenge.
They always find their courage when they resign or announce their retirement.
Trump promises mean nothing absolutely nothing. 🤷🏻♀️
Trump’s promises are as empty as his heart.
And then, in a delicious backfire of intention, Trump's threat to primary him drove him out of the running in 2026, and now his seat will be ripe for Democratic picking!
Government turning on we the people does not end well.💪🌞💪🌞💪 Founding documents say to start over from tyranny.👢👢🍑🍑🍑
Are the Democrats committed to repealing the bill? I haven’t heard them say that. Voting against something is different to a commitment to overturn and reverse it on gaining power.
Tillis has done the honorable thing. Rather than bend-the-knee to King 🌮, he has chosen to go against it in the 1.5 years left on his elected tenure.
