Trump’s ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ Suffers MASSIVE Blow As GOP Defect Ahead Of July 4 Showdown
President Donald Trump’s massive $3.3 trillion tax and spending bill has hit a major roadblock in the House of Representatives.
In a critical procedural vote held Wednesday, only 181 GOP lawmakers backed the bill, with four Republicans — Andrew Clyd, Victoria Sparta, Keith Self, and Brian Fitzpatrick — voting against it and 35 not voting.
With Trump demanding passage by July 4, the GOP now faces a race against time to secure the 217 votes needed.
The defections have rattled Republican leadership, already under pressure from internal divisions over the bill’s spending cuts and debt ceiling provisions.
Trump, who branded the bill “One Big Beautiful Bill,” now faces growing resistance within his own party.
Will GOP unity crumble, or will backroom deals seal a victory before the deadline?

Ahead of the Trump–Putin summit in Alaska, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has firmly rejected any withdrawal from Donbas, warning it would allow Russia to launch a “third war” in Ukraine. He insists ceding territory would expose cities like Dnipro, Zaporizhzhia, and Kharkiv to occupation. While Putin is expected to push for Ukrainian withdrawal, Zelensky seeks EU security guarantees and ongoing Western support. U.S. officials say Trump aims to eventually broker direct talks, but no ceasefire proposal so far assures Ukraine’s long-term safety.

Zelensky is accused of planning a major provocation ahead of the highly anticipated Trump-Putin meeting in Alaska. According to Russian intelligence, Kyiv is preparing a large-scale strike using UAVs and missiles targeting residential areas — an attack that could be blamed on Moscow to derail peace efforts. With tensions already at boiling point, this alleged plot threatens to plunge the conflict into dangerous new territory just as diplomatic talks are set to begin.

As the world braces for the high-stakes Trump-Putin summit in Alaska, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky drops a political bombshell—calling the meeting a “personal victory” for Vladimir Putin. Is this a sign of surrender? With talks of territorial swaps and fading Western support, is Ukraine preparing to give up land to end the war? This shocking development raises serious questions about the future of the conflict

U.S. President Donald Trump has launched a fiery attack on Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas), calling her “Low (Very!!!) I.Q.” and challenging her to take a cognitive exam. In a scathing Truth Social post, Trump compared Crockett to members of the progressive “AOC Plus Three” squad and claimed she was “only slightly dumber.”
He boasted about “acing” his own test during a recent physical at a military hospital, alleging Democrats would “fail” in “a spectacular show of stupidity and incompetence.” Crockett, a vocal Trump critic, recently called him a “piece of s---” during a public event, drawing national headlines. The feud comes as Texas Republicans push to redraw congressional districts in their favor.

President Donald Trump has nominated State Department spokesperson and longtime Fox News contributor Tammy Bruce as the next U.S. deputy representative to the United Nations. Bruce, a fierce defender of Trump’s “America First” policies, has served as State Department spokesperson since his inauguration in January. Known for defending the administration’s tough stances on immigration, Russia’s war in Ukraine, and Israel’s Gaza offensive, Bruce is expected to bring combative rhetoric to the UN stage.
Her appointment will require Senate confirmation, where Republicans hold a majority. Trump praised her “fantastic job” at State, while Bruce called the role an honor and vowed to continue advancing U.S. priorities abroad. She will serve under Mike Waltz, Trump’s pick for UN envoy, whose confirmation is pending. The move signals Trump’s push for loyalist voices in high-profile diplomatic posts at a time of intense geopolitical tensions.

In a fiery press conference, US President Donald Trump denied ever specifying a 100% tariff on countries importing oil from Russia — just days after threatening India for being Moscow’s top energy buyer. “I never said a percentage,” Trump claimed, as pressure mounts from New Delhi over alleged Western hypocrisy. India, now facing 25% tariffs, responded by spotlighting America’s own billion-dollar trade with Russia — including uranium and fertilisers. Trump's wavering comments come amid backlash from allies and Republicans alike.
Meanwhile, India and Russia have reaffirmed their strategic defence ties. Trump now says further penalties will be decided after talks with Russian officials. As India's energy imports top $50B, New Delhi defends its sovereign trade decisions — exposing what it calls Western “double standards.” Is Trump walking back under pressure, or is this just the calm before another tariff storm?

Nikki Haley has sharply criticized Donald Trump’s proposed tariffs on Indian goods over New Delhi’s Russian oil purchases, calling the move "strategically dangerous." In a viral post on ‘X’, the former UN Ambassador warned Trump not to “burn a relationship with a strong ally like India” while giving China a tariff pause. Haley emphasized the importance of U.S.-India ties amid rising Chinese influence in the Indo-Pacific, exposing deep divisions within the GOP on trade and foreign policy strategy.

Donald Trump has strongly hinted that Vice President J.D. Vance may be the chosen heir to the MAGA movement. At a White House event on Tuesday, Trump said Vance was “most likely” to carry the MAGA torch forward, adding, “In all fairness, he’s the Vice President.” Trump also floated the idea of Secretary of State Marco Rubio teaming up with Vance in the future, though he stopped short of making a 2028 endorsement.
It’s the clearest signal yet that Trump sees Vance as a future GOP frontrunner. Trump’s remarks come amid swirling speculation about his own political future—just hours after he told CNBC he would “probably not” run again. Despite the constitutional ban, he continues to tease a third term. Trump’s carefully calculated comments are fueling a storm of speculation over succession, power plays, and the long-term leadership of the Republican Party and MAGA base.

A dramatic showdown erupts in Texas as 51 Democratic lawmakers flee the state, heading to Illinois to block a Republican redistricting map backed by former President Donald Trump.
The GOP-drafted map would add five Republican-leaning seats to the U.S. House, but Democrats say it's a blatant power grab that silences millions of voters. Without the two-thirds quorum needed to proceed, Governor Greg Abbott’s special session is now in chaos.
As the redistricting war intensifies, Democrats call this political exile a fight for democracy, while Republicans label it cowardice. Will the runaway lawmakers succeed—or be hunted down, fined, or even removed from office?

Epstein Files: A political firestorm has erupted in Washington as the House passed a resolution demanding the release of all DOJ documents related to Jeffrey Epstein. The resolution, introduced by Rep. Ralph Norman and backed by multiple Republican lawmakers, orders Attorney General Pam Bondi to make all credible files public within 30 days.
These include files related to Epstein’s detention, death, his ties to Ghislaine Maxwell, and internal DOJ communications. Though symbolic and non-binding, the move has fueled public pressure to unseal Epstein's elusive “client list.” Critics call the vote a partisan stunt, while others hail it as a breakthrough for accountability. Social media exploded with demands for transparency. The question now: Will Bondi comply? Or will the cover-up claims grow louder?

Historic TRUMP'S Victory: President Donald Trump celebrates his first major legislative victory of his second term as the U.S. Congress passes the “One Big Beautiful Bill” — a sweeping package of tax cuts and federal spending reforms. The bill’s passage marks a turning point for Trump's domestic agenda and highlights strong GOP unity, led by House Speaker Mike Johnson. Trump praised Johnson, Scalise, Emmer, and Thune for delivering the win, calling it a “historic moment” and the “beauty of unified government.” The legislation sets the stage for more executive orders and deeper conservative reforms ahead.

A major political crisis is unfolding within the Republican party as former President Donald Trump lashes out at House Republicans for blocking what he calls his "big beautiful bill." The proposed legislation, designed to be the largest tax cut in modern history, has stalled due to significant infighting and a shocking lack of support from within Trump's own party. The bill's failure to move forward represents a major defiance against Trump's leadership and has sent shockwaves through the MAGA base.
The core of the crisis lies in the vote count. The House requires 217 votes to pass the legislation, but so far, only 181 Republicans have offered their support. The opposition is led by a small but determined group of four GOP Representatives—Keith Self, Victoria Spartz, Andrew Clyde, and Brian Fitzpatrick—who have publicly voted against the bill. Adding to the chaos, a staggering 35 Republicans did not cast a vote at all, leaving the bill's fate hanging in the balance ahead of a critical July 4 deadline set by Trump himself.
In a scathing rant on his Truth Social platform, Trump questioned the motives of his fellow Republicans, asking, "What are you trying to prove?" He framed the situation as a battle between "the largest tax cut vs. biggest tax hike," warning that this opposition is damaging the party's credibility and momentum. Trump stated that "MAGA is not happy" and cautioned that this defiance could lead to significant voter backlash in swing districts, with his supporters threatening to withdraw support from non-compliant lawmakers in upcoming primaries.
This internal conflict highlights a deeper debate within the GOP concerning federal spending levels, national deficits, and Trump's continued dominance over the party's direction. As the deadline looms, the standoff between Trump and the defiant House Republicans threatens to cause a permanent fracture in the party ahead of the crucial election season.
