In a fierce showdown with Senate RINOs standing in the way of his signature legislative effort, former President Donald Trump took to Truth Social to call out the Republicans sabotaging his “Big, Beautiful Bill” — a plan designed to secure America’s borders, lock in historic tax cuts, and slash government spending. Trump didn’t hold back, blasting the falsehoods spread by establishment Republicans who are twisting the facts about the bill’s impact on the deficit and the economy.
Joining the fray, top Trump aide Stephen Miller fired back at critics, setting the record straight on exactly what this bill entails. Miller explained that the bill is far from a reckless spending spree, as some libertarians claim. Instead, it’s a three-pronged conservative victory: making the Trump Tax Cuts and Jobs Act permanent, funding the border wall and deportations like never before, and slashing nearly \$2 trillion in welfare spending. Miller made it clear, “Item 1 alone (border security + deportation) makes this the most important legislation for the conservative project in the history of the nation.”
That message hit hard because the “Big, Beautiful Bill” isn’t just about politics — it’s about protecting American sovereignty and economic strength. Yet figures like Sen. Rand Paul continue to throw up roadblocks, voting “NO” while peddling myths about the bill’s impact.
Trump’s frustration boiled over in a series of posts targeting Rand Paul, accusing him of being out of touch and obstructive. “Rand Paul has very little understanding of the BBB, especially the tremendous GROWTH that is coming. He loves voting ‘NO’ on everything, he thinks it’s good politics, but it’s not. The BBB is a big WINNER!!!” Trump wrote, emphasizing that this legislation is a win for hardworking Americans who want lower taxes and secure borders.
Moments later, Trump doubled down: “Rand votes NO on everything, but never has any practical or constructive ideas. His ideas are actually crazy (losers!). The people of Kentucky can’t stand him. This is a BIG GROWTH BILL!”
Under pressure, Paul backtracked slightly on social media, saying he supports making the tax cuts permanent and could back the bill — if the debt ceiling vote were separated. But Miller wasn’t having it. He fired back with a scorching critique: Rand’s objections are nothing more than political gamesmanship designed to force a deal with Senate Democrat Chuck Schumer, which would result in higher taxes and more spending — the very opposite of what conservatives want.
Miller declared, “With the post below, Rand just conceded he has no substantive objections to any provision in the bill — because he knows it’s a big tax cut combined with a big spending cut combined with permanent border security. His sole objection is that he wants to force Republicans and President Trump to make a deal with Schumer to raise the debt ceiling that he can then vote against.”
And Miller didn’t stop there. He called out libertarian holdouts like Paul and Rep. Thomas Massie as unwitting allies of the Democrats, warning that their obstruction threatens “the survival of civilization itself.” He accused the Democrat Party of secretly rooting for these libertarians to succeed, saying, “Schumer is praying for Rand and Massie to succeed.”
This drama shines a harsh spotlight on the internal Republican battle over conservative priorities. With America’s economic future and border security hanging in the balance, Trump and his team are pushing hard for a bill that puts America first — while battling RINOs and libertarians who, whether knowingly or not, are siding with the left.
In the fight for America’s future, Trump’s “Big, Beautiful Bill” remains a beacon for those demanding real border security, historic tax relief, and a government that spends less, not more. The question is whether the Republican Party will stand united — or continue to let its own faction undermine the conservative cause.
