The votes are slowing down. They don’t have a bill. Still issues with Parl. Still disagreeing in caucus. Still fighting with House. Still no final language.

Kill. The. Bill.
Are they loading up the bill because they know it will never pass the House when it’s this expensive? Kicking the can to the House. It just seems so odd that they’re ok with this much expense.
It should be flushed away in its entirety!
Pass it...in a week or two, or...better yet, never.
As if they needed a bill to commit treason (insurrection-making head weak billionaire boot-licker puppet illegitimate) on Jan 6th. or bribing SCOTUS judges or 34 felon charges dropped, or all the other Anti-American actions this oligarchy is responsible for. Press aren't crying poor, anymore.
Good news! So....stupid is, what stupid does is....correct.
Phenomenal news. Keep fighting!
Good

The Big, Bad Bill
Members of the GOP have a choice. Face Trump's ire or the obliteration of the Republican party @ the Mid Terms and they are out of a job.
🙏🏻
DEMOCRATS ARE FOREVER DOOMED! BECAUSE SCHUMER LOST HIS TEETH
The People have the power because it is We the People that made them billionaires because We purchase their crap. Buying only the basic necessities. Start tightening your belt putting your money under the mattress instead of in Trumps Billionaire pockets. No more free hand outs to billionaires.
It’s like watching the Titanic before it hits an iceberg.
Well, they still have 3 1/2 years to screw us over… July 4th was an arbitrary deadline.
That's just because they've run out of ICE money. They might have to pause the domestic terrorism if the Big Ugly Bill doesn't pass before Friday.
Ohh
That's true. Now it makes a lot more sense. Take away their money, take their oxygen.
Keep throwing sand in the gears.
Thank you Senator!
Still few ethcal thoughts on the Republican side Still not just killed for being the most dangerous bill to hit congress (so far). Still no spine apparent in GOP.
If you really want to take a detailed look at this whole bill here ya go. It’s nasty. There are some other good links to spending as well further down. When I find a desc of everything I will send as well. www.crfb.org/blogs/breaki...
kill this bill not one part can pass the GOP may fear Trump now, but if they force this bill thru, they’ll have way more to fear from 10s of millions of American citizens
#KILLTHEBILL
GOP this is your re-defining moment… we already know you’re spineless, hypocrites and corrupt; and have no decency at this critical time you must Kill the Bill! This “ugly bill” will impact your constituents, families and friends. We won’t forget in 2026, believe that!
the people won’t wait that long
Agreed!
We absolutely need a nationwide strike. I keep hearing people don’t want to put their name on a strike card but they don’t realize all their posts, their identities, everything is already available to this regime. You can’t hide. Worried about your job? Well if they get their way, your employment1/2
Assuming elections will be available in 2026 is copium— this bill is intended to resurrect Taxation Without Representation
We need to fight like hell or lose it all.
2/2 security will be gone too and you can forget getting temp health coverage or unemployment because they want to end all social programs that help regular people survive. The time for hesitation is over. If people keep burying their head in the sand we will reach the point of no return.
KEep going. Keep fighting.
A sliver of good news(?) I’ll take it.
Please stop this horrific bill from passing any way that you can.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Please,destroy every bit of this great big, disgusting,cruel, and dangerous Bill. Tillis seems to be the only Rep.who has a conscience and spine these days. Please remind all the other Rs that we see them for what they are. Do they think djt will offer them jobs when they lose their next election?
Thank you, Senator. Keep those elbows up, eh!
Final language is the easy part. It's Bull Shit.
The ONLY reason that there is any hope (& it isn't much) is because of small, news sources as the major media still isn't reporting factually and is still whitewashing the harm of this bill.
Still keep fighting!
Oh, Trump will be upset. Not good for such a sick old man.
It’s all states or no states. Every member looking to be excluded should be primaried. It’s United States folks. Go back and run for your state houses if you aren’t for all of America.
Thank you!
Keep up the good fight!! Thank you.
At least slowing it down will make people more aware of how MAGA Senators are so dug in.
Lisa Murkowski fucked us. We knew you couldn't stop her.
This is disgusting!!!
But that is what fat Don wants so the GOP will give him whatever he asks for. All so they can install their, we are better than you religion. 🤬🖕☠️ Fuck religion.
Thank you for fighting!
🤞
Keep fighting, Senator. Keep trying to bring Republicans over to the right side. Donald Trump continues to lose influence. His Bill is wildly unpopular. If they do not get off the Trump Tribe Train, they will lose their re-elections. People are bigly pissed off. 😡
Bullshit! Those fucking cowards ALWAYS cave in. Watch... 🤬
Keep at it and THANK YOU!
Is this a Republican “pass it so we can then read it to find out what’s in it” deal? (They owe Nancy Pelosi an apology!)
They're simply deciding between a horrible bill and a really horrible bill.
Kill the bill. Address one issue at a time!
Good! Keep it going! As long as it takes to defeat this garbage heap of a bill!
Keep up the fight!! RI appreciates you!!! 💪🏻💪🏻
INEPT is INEPT is INEPT!.. UNBELIEVABLE!...
This is who these Demented, Anti-American Rethuglicans are!... They never know what they are doing!.. They choose WRONG over RIGHT more often than not because they are Meek, Weak Followers NOT Leaders!
Why would you even want to be a member of a party that threatens you if you vote for your constituents?
There is NO Sanity in understanding this!... Soooo much I just cannot comprehend today!
Thank you Senator.
Keep fighting and trying to flip the uncertain, remind them that some of them represent really poor states that can’t afford these cuts!
Thank you
Strangely, most are not even fighting against the most heinous parts of the bill. Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” is not just policy — it’s a blueprint to transform the U.S. from a constitutional republic into a presidential autocracy. It poses an existential threat to: • Free and fair elections
• The peaceful transfer of power • Independent governance • Civil liberties An authoritarian blueprint.
Tell Sen Murkowski she is welcome in the #resitance. Don't cave! Constituents in Ketchikan will thank her.
She always bends to their wishes. Apparently they offer her a deal she just is so afraid of turning down. Selling their souls for a monster.
Because she is a monster in plain clothes!
Coward and murderer of American children
I just visited Ketchikan. Ya'll definitely need that hospital!
This didn’t age well.
Can you explain what's going on with all the motions to recommit that the GOP has an easier time voting against, rather than actual amendments? bsky.app/profile/jael...
I pray you’re right. My anxiety is getting worse along with my health.
Hurting the poor to satisfy the gluttony of the rich. People are overwhelmingly against this. This is going to backfire in a monumental way. A total shutdown of the workforce. Big business will be shunned.
The Repugnant Republicans are like a pack of bloodthirsty jackals fighting over the scraps from a fawn carcass. They want any scrap they can tear off. Disgusting.
Thank you and your colleagues for fighting for ALL Americans.
They really are. They are the first line. The rest of us better be prepared to be the second.
Keep up the good fight!
I have never seen more money put in middle class pockets after Republican economic policies are enacted. The last Republican with a reasonable economic policy was Eisenhower
There was a wealth tax under Eisenhower.
Thank you Senator Whitehouse. For the report and always reliable service.
It will pass unless Musk really starts fighting it. If he bullies enough, some may fear him more than the orange felon. Then, what will we do to regain a decent America?
Senator Whitehouse do all you can, think outside the box, be the reason the bill fails! ( more cheer leading coming soon!)
HEY dictator donny you afraid that BIGLY BEAUTIFUL BILL is gonna pass WE notice the fences around OUR Whitehouse do you really think you can protect yourself from YOU call the WHITEHOUSE 202-456-7041 order a TACO
Typical trump ...all hats no cattles , what's new?
Byrd rulin , 60 votes , give them a bit of time , let it simmer for a while till midterm 2026 even then it would probably be still up in the air as usual..
But they are LOYAL to the felon. Look at Murkowski.
And yet, the Notsees will fall in line just in time once again. Keep fighting the good fight. Don't trust a damn thing they say.
Excellent
And now? My god we are screwed.
Thank you for tirelessly fighting for Americans and democracy!
Still villainous monsters.
Yes!
So what happened to that investigation of Clarence Thomas...or were you always talking out your ass.
Still effing monsters, all of them. Except Rand Paul, how can you hate a guy who wears a deceased poodle on his head. His politics suck though. Is Susan Collins “concerned”?
Thank you for the update. Big fan of your dedication and morals. Keep fighting the good fight.
If the murder bill eventually passes both houses... will people realize dRumpf and the repuglkkkans lied through their teeth when the devastating measures start to take effect? I doubt it but I guess we can hope they wake up.
The whole world knows he’s a lying, felonious, incompetent, grifter, except for the Magats.
If the American people only 'wake up' AFTER the bill is passed that's already too late. If the bill passes then the Chicken TACO will legally become king (the bill takes away any ability from the other branches of government to hold the Pres accountable for anything). AFTER is already too late!!!!
There’s hope
Thanks for the update and keep up the good fight!!!
What growth is the 🤡 pushing (trillions in growth to pay down deficit) Since so much is invested in ICE, does he consider detain & deport operations growth?
The news media is failing to give updates so thank you!!
MSNBC was playing it live on Lawrence’s show.
Repubs in disarray 🖕🖕🖕
Thank you Senator 💕
🔥great update🔥
Why do these republicans feel threatened by Trump,he doesn’t care about their reelection,the wealthy might throw a few bucks their way but it’s the PEOPLE who will vote them out,they don’t want a trump follower who has devastated their lives!Why would you want a politician who isn’t for the people!
Voice from "Hamilton" in my head: You don't have the votes.🎶
Why aren’t you guys introducing amendments rather than just motions to commit? Give them poison pills! Maybe make something better!
Elizabeth Warren said they had introduced multiple amendments and the Repubs had voted all of them down.
The time has come for republicans to choose. Either make Trump happy and lose their seats next year, or make their constituents happy and lose Trump, who will then primary them to ensure they lose their seats anyway. Talk about painting yourself into a corner.
To me, Sir, the final language could be when WE get rid of you all.
Keep up the good work.
Millions of us are on the edge of our seats with worry. Thank you for the update!!!
REMOVE ALL THE WORST STUFF. Start with NO TAX CUT FOR RICH. Saves billions, lowers debt. Add back "No tax increases for lowest two quintiles." Remove the excess ICE money--no more concentration camps, no more staff. Saves a bunch. Add back "NO cuts to medical or food" (helps farmers, too.)
REMOVE all sneaky _more power to Trump_ bits like enabling him to prevent elections. Bill should contain ONLY monetary statements in clearest, simplest form. Ensure that the refitting of his damned Qatar gift plane is NOT paid by government but must be done to gov't rules.
That last will save millions. Adding revenue: Guarantee no interference with immigrants who are paying taxes--no more deporting working immigrants with no felony convictions. That will increase tax income, if we can lure them back and keep promises made.
REMOVE all expenditures that do not immediately and sufficiently serve We the People (not they the corporations.) Food, medicine, housing, assistance fine. No federal money for circuses, just for bread. Disaster relief OK, interference with demonstrations of opinion, not OK.
I want my tax money spent on helping and serving people, not hurting people. All spending should benefit bottom three quintiles FIRST, 4th quintile next, and top quintile can damn well feed, clothe, house, and transport itself. If there's enough surplus, they can have another dish of ice cream.
Fight with all you have, and bring some reasonable R’s around. This bill is punishing for both sides.
Keep up the good fight!
Will save this for when they pass it anyways bc they don't care
Keep up the fight!!
Leaderless. Rudderless. And morally bankrupt. Their ambitious greed far exceeds their skills as lawmakers.
Can we really still call them Lawmakers? 🤔
Fair.
Lawbreakers
I have some worse words to call them.
This bill is a disaster! Simply diabolical! Shame on these greedy ____ for pushing this bs!
Keep fighting good Sir. Many lives are depending on it!
Cuz nobody read the bill they voted to debate. Morons.
sounds promising...
This is a crime
Sounds like everything, Trump orchestrates
Hold the line
Sounds about exactly as I expected. And I'm somewhat comforted by their impotence.
I always thought their incompetence and selfishness might save us but never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups. It ain’t over till it’s over.
🤞
Keep it up Senator Whitehouse. We support you 100%
The Big Bullshit Billionaire Bonanza will destroy the lives of millions of Americans. Make sure you are doing all you can to ensure its failure! @heinrich.senate.gov @lujan.senate.gov @repstansbury.bsky.social @fernandez.house.gov
Thank you for working tirelessly.
Please have them read the bill again. I enjoyed watching it.
Let us pray that they fail
GOOD!
Good, give that $%^&#* bill the fiery end it deserves. It will almost certainly end most of the GOP mbr's careers. They are acting all cocky as if we are not watching. We are. It is a suicide pact. Donaldo delenda est
I’m genuinely sorry for you, but mostly, this fuels my hope.
Is there a proposal for a CR with the tax cuts expiring? Some public alternative people can get behind?
I know you already are, but please be as obstructive as possible. Hugs.
Susan Collins wanted to suspend the budget rules, it was defeated 72 voting against 1:10 am EST. The R bill doesn't meet the guidelines of Reconciliation.
Thank you, Senator. Keep fighting.
#VoteNo
Thanks!
I really hate Republicans I wish they would all just go away
Guess little donnie isn't the scariest fish in the water anymore.
Keep fighting!
Thank you Senator. We see those of you who are standing by your oath. Stay strong.
Don’t let Fetterman sneak a yes vote in. He needs attention this week too.
Big Beautiful Budget Buster Breaks the Backs of the Blue-collar Breadwinner
Thank you Senator
GOP IS EVIL
Keep up the good trouble.
I feel like we are the rebel alliance fighting the empire for our lives!!!
Thank you for fighting for all of us! I for one really appreciate your hard work!
I hope you’re telling the truth because Congress ppl have said how much they’re against it, then an hour later they are for it.
Exactly
Good!
Keep up the fight. These reckless politicians do not understand what they will unleash.
Excellent 👏 👏 👏 👏
Don’t leave until they leave for sure. Camp out there please
Keep it in turtle mode, if it probably passes, hopefully some cuts to its present shape will be made
Keep fighting!!! Thank you.
I hope you are correct. I'm praying to the real God. I thank you for standing up for democracy!
Thank you for fighting the good fight senator.
Thank you, Senator Whitehouse for your diligence. If the bill passes with massive ICE and concentration camp funding, we will hold a national strike. We will shut it all down. And we will remember. We will primary and remove all republicans who vote yes. Please call reps, everyone! #3E
My state didn't vote for Trump et al; I plan to support state legislation to withhold state funding of Trumps assault on the American people in keeping with Barrett's SC decision, one area at a time. Navigating a 2 way road isn't difficult it's drivers who want the full roadway.
Yes. Resist on all levels. Protect locally, neighborhood, town, County, state level. Pushback nationally, and federally as well. We must end this regime and stop the terror. No more abductions. No concentration camps. No internment camps. No indefinite detainment. Demand due process. No masked LEO.
I'm actually ready.
Yes, my group too. Sound the horn, we ride at Dawn.Metaphorically, of course. National shutdown. National strike. Shut. It. All. Down. Stop abducting people, no concentration camps, and masked secret police out of our streets! We are the people, and there are more of us than there are of them. #3E
✊🏼 because this is not my first rodeo at fighting fascism I called for a general strike in February. When will people realize that they’ve got the power and organize, create a strike fund or many strike funds and as Eugene Debs said, put their hands in their pockets and let the oligarchs starve.
Do not worry! Many of us have been eagerly waiting for a general strike and using this time to get ready. If not now, then I have faith with time we will spread the word and get enough people ready also. ✊🏻
Well, it passed, so it looks like it’s a go.
I am so afraid of them passing this bill, and putting all those billions of dollars into ice, and scaling up their kidnapping and concentration camp internments. We are going to have to stop them from committing state terror on an even greater scale than they are already doing. #3E
Me too...only buying essentials and only supporting small businesses, organizations suing to protect us and the environment and those in need. Also supporting small local businesses and Dems running for election.
Goods Unite Us is a good app that tells how much the companies give to campaigns and if they are R/D.
Thank you for sharing.
YES!
We STILL NEED to hold a nationwide strike to protest The Trump administration. It's vital. If people aren't willing, we're damning ourselves.
Keep fighting!
💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻🇺🇸
I just hope they get the treatment they’re giving to their own people. And that’s a dark thing to wish on anyone. But they’ve earned it.
Good. It's all garbage anyway, go home Republicans.
Keep fighting! We see you!
Thank you, Senator. I'm from NY, but my Senators seem to be asleep at the wheel, so thank you for fighting. #NY19
What's with trying to exempt certain states in order to buy the Senate votes? That cannot be allowed. If we have to suffer so do Alaska, Dakotas.
If this bill goes down, that little failed gambit is going to be the cause. You can only get votes from senators by exempting their states from the bill? Nightmare PR.
Just TWO honest Republicans--just TWO! Please!
Delay, delay, delay. 💕
It’s Trump tactics. Slow it to a crawl. Control the narrative. Sue someone for the spectacle
Yes, yes, yes!💕
What would Mitch McConnell do…?
Eat the fucking rich.
That attitude tastes like shit. Take their money. That's all they really care about.
Tax then eat (eat just before they're unable to afford to eat though) ..yummy, yummy - in my tummy..
Yet I hear they're completely indigestible - because often pretty disgusting..
Nope, just tax them. Tax the rich. 🤑
Thank you for posting updates
🙏🏻 to the porky pig party of republicans
Stop the ICE money!
Thugs is disarray.
Thank god for the parliamentarian! She needs a Nobel for this! 😉
#KillTheBill
Hey Sheldon ! You’re the best ! You met my brother in France ! He’s president of Democrats Abroad!
Where's daddy when you need him?
Thank You Senator Whitehouse!!!!
#voteno
When I vote, I think not only of my generation but the next generation(s) to come. I wonder this about those Republicans looking to move this bill through... what do their kids think? Do they have the hard conversations with their kids that they're choosing Trump over them & 100% affect their kids?
Great point.
I think their families will be protected members of the ruling class for many years to come.
May that be a sign that some good deeds can come out of the situation under such terrible circumstances for the ordinary PPL of the USA 🇺🇸 …. 😢
💙💙💙💙😊
Slooooow walkin’
When do they scrap it and start over? What’s the death knell we should be listening for?
FIGHT FOR US, SENATOR!!!
I’m trying to bring back a classic satirical magazine, MAD Magazine, and I think the artists should aim at a new What Me Worry face: one that looks more or less like America’s new great Generalissimo: DJ Trump. 😧
Thank you! Abolish ICE, please.
Thank you for fighting, Senator.
Appreciate you 👍🙏🏻❤️
Trump is Hitler same playbook; propaganda appeal to a racist society political maneuvering & exploiting crises.Same twisted ideologies same racist fanatical support. MAGA=Nazi=Evil Don’t be Like NAZI Germany via participation or compliance.The only people supporting this are racist sociopaths.Fight!
It's all for show. How can. You not see this. They'll all fall in line. They always do.
🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼
Shove it through as fast as possible so that no one can react. Time is their enemy.
Love you Sheldon Whitehouse ❤️
Good! May it NEVER PASS! MAY THE 🍊 POS LOSE!!!
Oh I got some language for you guys to use but it would get us banned. And your donors would disapprove.
Is Mitch able to stand up on his own?
Drag it out like every single GOP member drags out anything when its a blue controlled administration.
Thanks for the good news, and for your steadfast fighting! 🥊
So we get to spend the next 3 1/2 years waiting for our demise at the hands of a few greedy mfkers
Thank you for the update Senator! And thank you for fighting like hell for us. The “crime scene” theme made me cheer! You are literally telling them off for us — our voice. Keep it up 🔥🔥🔥
It is difficult if not impossible to find the words to describe these GOP Senators & to their actions in taking away food & health from the poor to reward billionaires.... Immoral Cowardly and I Repugnant Inhumane Inhuman Obscene Sorry, I'm running out of words!
Your speech was great Sen. Sheldon
No one can buffalo the bill the way she can buffalo the bill!
In this day and age of AI slop, it warms my heart to see a good old-fashioned photoshop!
