Rand Paul and Dana Loesch not fans of the "Big Beautiful Bill"


The tax cuts and no tax on tips are good, but the "Big Beautiful Bill" is not going nearly far enough in cutting. Dana Loesch noted this morning on her radio show that it is still funding Planned Parenthood and a bunch of Biden's Green Deal. Rand Paul notes that he cannot support a bill that expands government deficits by trillions of dollars each year. That is not sustainable. The debt ceiling cannot be expanded.  

As Rand Paul noted, if Congress gives a "recission" vote (which only requires a simple majority), Trump and DOGE have authority to undercut most of the legal challenges to DOGE.  

I get politics is of the possible. Still, we need to cut, not fund, discretionary spending. Certainly things like Planned Parenthood need to go (even if it just a small portion of this).  We have to get fiscal issues under control.  Update: Big Beautiful Bill passes in House
