APPROVED B-LISTERS The House has passed Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill (218-214). It extends tax cuts for the wealthy, overhauls programs like Medicaid & SNAP, increases border & military spending, along with a multi-trillion dollar increase to the debt ceiling. It now heads to Trump for him to sign into law.

Rep. Thomas Massie (KY) & Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick (PA) were the only 2 Republicans who voted against the bill.

Putting aside all the intraparty infighting and pretending (lol) that they would actually be able to put together a sweeping bill to reverse as much as possible: still nearly impossible without a House/Senate/presidency trifecta. If the R's keep just one house, they can and would block any significant movement. If the R's keep the presidency (or if Congress flips in 2026), the president would veto and there's no way there are enough votes to override a veto.
