President Trump on Monday increased pressure on Republican lawmakers as they consider provisions in the “One Big Beautiful Bill,” urging members of various committees to “UNIFY behind their Highly Respected Chairmen.”
The Committee on Ways and Means, Committee on Energy and Commerce, and Committee on Agriculture are set to meet this week for markups on the reconciliation bill.
Most notably, on the table before the Ways and Means committee is a 389-page measure, which includes an expansion of the 2017 Trump tax cuts, including no tax on tips, no tax on Social Security, and no tax on overtime.
During a White House Press Conference last week, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt laid it all out. “Anyone who opposes this bill will be opposing the largest tax cuts in American history,” she said. “They will be voting to raise taxes by the tune of 4 trillion on the middle class of this country, and we look forward to holding them accountable for that.”

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Trump championed his first of many trade deals with the UK and “the biggest tax cut in history” in the reconciliation package last week, urging Americans to buy stocks “now.” Those who bought when he told them to likely saw significant gains on Monday when the DOW Jones Industrial Average soared over 1,000 points and the S&P 500 rose over 3%.
If the bill passes, “on top of all of these trade deals that we’re doing, this country will hit a point that you better go out and buy stock now. Let me tell you, this country will be like a rocket ship that goes straight up,” Trump said.
Trump is currently en route to the Middle East. “When I return from the Middle East, where great things will happen for America, we will work together on any and all outstanding issues, but there shouldn’t be many — The Bill is GREAT,” he said.
He further highlighted the historic executive order he signed this morning, which imposes massive price reductions on pharmaceuticals in a statement on Truth Social, saying “with the tremendous Drug and Pharmaceutical Cuts, plus massive incoming Tariff Money, our “GREAT, BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL” just got much BIGGER and BETTER.”
This week the Republicans are meeting in the Tax, Energy, and Agriculture Committees on major pieces of “THE ONE, BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL.” Republicans need to UNIFY behind their Highly Respected Chairmen, Jason Smith, Brett Guthrie, and Glenn “GT” Thompson. Remember, these are men that truly strive to do what is RIGHT for America. The Democrats, on the other hand, want to DESTROY our Country.
You must oppose these Democrat Amendments which, in all fairness to them, were made prior to my News Conference this morning announcing that Drug Prices, under our Most Favored Nations Policy, will be going down from 50% to 90%, affecting EVERYTHING that is done in a very positive way. When I return from the Middle East, where great things will happen for America, we will work together on any and all outstanding issues, but there shouldn’t be many — The Bill is GREAT.
We have no alternative, WE MUST WIN! But now, with the tremendous Drug and Pharmaceutical Cuts, plus massive incoming Tariff Money, our ‘GREAT, BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL’ just got much BIGGER and BETTER. The Golden Age of America will soon be upon us. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
However, as The Gateway Pundit reported, the do-nothing Republicans in Congress have sent fewer bills to be signed into law by President Trump at this point than any new president for seven decades. It remains to be seen if they can come together to pass the bill.
