This is the same dickweed that wanted to have a national abortion ban law right after the supreme court ruling already killed roe versus wade. He put that out four weeks before the midterms in 2018.

Scott admits the “Doge” cuts are not in the bill. All doge spending remains in the bill. The house is full of fools. Here’s a clue. Stop the spending. Quit spending on agencies and non-profits you claim to close/doge. Liars and Fools.

We need the promised substantial cuts ( no tax on retirement distributions and oendions , tips, overtime, eliminate the SALT deduction limit) on the way to eliminating the disgusting federal income tax system

Otherwise it’s mostly fluff, bulkdheit, and yes, more wasted spending

and we’re back to 2009 and the Tea Party Contract with America when the adults in the tea party told these bastiage politicians exactly what they needed to do.

1. fire the house leadership who put up this fat cow of a bill.

2. pass a resolution for a balanced budget and a balanced budget amendment.

3. break all apart all spending and cutting bills in to small, function related, readable bills and give at least 3 days for all to review. no more midnight votes.

4. make sure all the bills balance with a baseline of zero by at least the end of Trump’s term. that would insure that all the DOGE cuts would be in immediately.

5. vote on each one separately and in the light of day.

i hope the senate has a few tea party adults in there (like Johnson, Lee, Paul, and Scott and will make some of this happen.

Senator Rick Scott is a No on Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill: “There’s Not a Chance It’ll Get the 51 Votes it Needs”

Don't just say "no" Senator Scott. Do something. Make changes.

Make changes. Deliver a good bill that will gain 51 votes.

The obvious response is - why didn’t Joe Biden have any of these Senate issues?

They rubberstamped Joe’s stuff, multi Trillions of Woke spending, but it sailed through.
