Dozens of peaceful protesters, including disabled people in wheelchairs, were arrested last Wednesday in Washington, DC, while protesting President Trump's massive spending and tax bill, which will dramatically slash taxes, restructure the student loan and debt system, and make devastating cuts to vital, popular programs like Medicaid and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). With Vice President JD Vance casting the tie-breaking vote, Senate Republicans voted Tuesday to advance Donald Trump's so-called One Big Beautiful Bill, which will now go back to the House of Representatives for final approval. In this urgent episode of Working People, we speak with Lorraine Chavez and Chrstine Rodriguez, who were among the dozens arrested for their peaceful act of civil disobedience on June 25, about what's in this bill, what it will mean for working people, and how working people are fighting back.  Editor's Note (7/1/25): Before the US Senate voted to advance President Trump's spending and tax bill, the provision to bar states from issuing new regulations on artificial intelligence for 10 years was removed from the legislation.

Senate Republicans jam through a final vote on the so-called "Big, Beautiful Bill." Senator Chris Murphy steps away from the Senate floor to join Tommy and Lovett to talk about Republican Senator Tom Thillis's unexpected opposition to the bill, the Medicaid cuts that sparked it, and what the bill's passage would mean for Americans' wallets (you guessed it: more money for the rich, less for the poor). Then, Tommy and Lovett discuss Trump's trip to "Alligator Alcatraz," a new migrant detention facility in the middle of the Everglades, the Supreme Court's 6-3 decision ending the practice of nationwide injunctions, and the White House doubling down on their claim that airstrikes "totally obliterated" Iran's nuclear program, despite mounting evidence to the contrary.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

The Senate Republicans have the votes to pass Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” It was a 50-50 tie and JD Vance broke the tie. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Across two fiery segments, the host exposes a dual-front crisis threatening America's future. First, Senate Republican leader John Thune is accused of siding with globalist donors and sabotaging Donald Trump's immigration agenda—ensuring 1.4 million illegal immigrants remain on Medicaid by manipulating Senate rules and hiding behind a Democrat-appointed parliamentarian. Meanwhile, Elon Musk enters the political battlefield, threatening to fund primary challenges against any GOP member who supports Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill," citing its record-breaking $5 trillion debt ceiling hike as fiscal suicide. As Republicans cave to donor pressure and poison-pill tactics, Democrats simultaneously push forward with a radical agenda, embracing open socialism and even communism. New York's Zohran Mamdani, praised by Senator Chris Murphy, champions seizing the means of production—while party leaders remain silent, biding their time until voters are powerless to stop it. This is the unraveling of both parties—and the future of America hangs in the balance.

In this fiery monologue, the host exposes how Senate Republican leader John Thune and the entrenched Bush-era establishment are sabotaging efforts to remove over a million illegal immigrants from taxpayer-funded Medicaid. Despite clear federal law barring non-citizens from these benefits, Thune, backed by the same open-borders donors who funded George H.W. Bush, George W. Bush, and Karl Rove's decades-long globalist agenda, is accused of hiding behind parliamentary maneuvers to keep the system alive. The segment argues this is the last gasp of a corrupt political machine desperate to preserve illegal immigration as a tool to reshape America—and warns that unless the Bush-aligned “cancer” inside the Republican Party is defeated, the nation faces permanent transformation.

Senate Republicans are struggling to secure enough votes for Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill." Senators worked throughout the night on the bill, breaking records and engaging in intense negotiations. Ultimately, Senate Republicans narrowly passed Trump's megabill after a marathon voting session. In related news, the feud between Trump and Musk has reignited over the Republicans' megabill. Bryan Kohberger, the suspect in the Idaho student murders, has accepted a plea deal. The Goncalves family is "beyond furious" about this agreement, and the father of one of the University of Idaho murder victims criticized the situation, saying, "Idaho has failed." In another case, Wess Roley, the gunman responsible for a deadly ambush on fire crews, had reportedly "idolized" firefighters.

President Donald Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill passes the Senate. Vice President JD Vance cast the tie-breaking vote after three Senate Republicans opposed the measure following a record-long debate. Now, the amended bill heads to the House.Trump applauds the bill's passage while touring a Florida detention center nicknamed “Alligator Alcatraz.” He's also threatening to have the Department of Government Efficiency review Elon Musk's government contracts.Zohran Mamdani officially wins the Democratic mayoral nomination in New York City. The candidate secured 56 percent of votes in the third round of ranked-choice tallying. Trump reacted Tuesday, calling Mamdani a “communist.”

US equity futures are fractionally lower after yesterday's rally pushed the S&P 500 and Nasdaq to fresh record closes. Europe opened firmer and Asia finished mixed. Overnight narrative was largely upbeat, growing Fed rate cut expectations have provided the key directional driver, partly fueled by Trump scrutiny of Powell. Trade headlines remain front-and-center ahead of the 9—July tariff deadline: the White House says framework agreements with Canada and the EU are moving forward, while Japan and India talks still face sticking points over autos and market access. Senate Republicans continue amendment votes on the wide-ranging tax-and-spend bill, with final passage expected before the holiday. Soft US regional-activity surveys and falling job-vacancy indicators are feeding rate-cut expectations ahead of Thursday's non-farm payrolls and Chair Powell's remarks at Sintra this morning.Companies Mentioned: TikTok, Paramount Global, OpenAI, Alphabet

It's make-or-break week for Congressional Republicans and their big policy and spending legislation, a.k.a. President Donald Trump's ‘One Big Beautiful Bill.' Trump says he still expects to see the final package on his desk by this Friday, even as new estimates from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office show the latest version of the bill could add more than $3 trillion dollars to the national debt over the next decade. Is that deterring members of the party that professes to care about federal spending? Not really. Senate Republicans are expected to vote on the measures, after narrowly advancing it to the floor for debate over the weekend. Elana Schor, senior Washington editor for the online news publication Semafor, gives us an update on where the bill stands now and the possible speed bumps ahead.And in headlines: Trump hints at a possible TikTok buyer, the Supreme Court hands the White House another huge win by limiting the powers of lower court judges, and the president pressures Israeli officials to drop Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's corruption trial.Show Notes:Check out Elana's work – www.semafor.com/author/elana-schorSubscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

The massive budget bill that Senate Republicans are debating pays for some of its tax cuts by slashing hundreds of billions of dollars in Medicaid spending. The latest report from the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office estimates nearly 12 million people will lose health insurance if the Senate version of the bill becomes law. Trump insists the cuts come from eliminating waste, fraud and abuse. Democrats have said they break Trump's promise not to touch Medicaid — and over the weekend, Republican Senator Thom Tillis of North Carolina agreed. "What do I tell 663,000 people in two years or three years when President Trump breaks his promise by pushing them off of Medicaid because the funding's not there anymore?" We asked Sarah Jane Tribble, the chief rural correspondent for KFF Health News, what the cuts will mean for rural residents of states like North Carolina — and the hospitals that serve them.For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org.
