BREAKING: Senate passes Trump’s ‘big, beautiful bill’

CHARLES PAYNE, HOST OF MAKING MONEY ON FOX BUSINESS. CHARLES, WE ARE IN THIS, LEANING ON THIS, AND WITHOUT THE TAX GOT THAT WAS PUT INTO PLACE BY PRESIDENT TRUMP IN HIS FIRST TERM, IF THAT IS ALLOWED TO EXPIRE TODAY, IF THIS BILL DOES NOT PASSED IT HIKES TAXES FOR 68% OF WORKING AMERICANS. >> AND THE BIGGEST HIKE WOULD BEFORE LOWER EARNING HOUSEHOLD INCOMES. AND THE PRO-GROWTH ASPECT OF THIS IS WE WANT TO GROW THIS NATION, AROLDIS ECONOMY, AND TAXES ARE EIGHT ESSENTIAL PART OF IT, PARTICULARLY FOR CORPORATIONS. >> THE VICE PRESIDENT BREAKING THE TIE RIGHT NOW. WHICH MEANS THEY HAD VOTES FROM REPUBLICANS. THIS BILL, THE BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL, HAS PASSED, BECAUSE THE VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, J.D. VANCE, HAS COME TO THE HILL MORE THAN ONCE THINKING HE WOULD DO THIS, AND WHEN HE SHOWED UP THIS MORNING THEY WERE RIGHT, HE WOULD BE NEEDED AND HE HAS DONE IT. LET US LISTEN AND SEE IF THERE IS AUDIO THAT WE CAN TAKE IN. >> PURSUANT TO THE ORDER FOR FEBRUARY 29th 1960, THE HOUR OF 12 NOON HAVING ARRIVED, THE SENATE HAVING BEEN IN CONTINUOUS SESSION SINCE YESTERDAY. THE SENATE WILL SUSPEND FOR A PRAYER BY THE SENATE CHAPLIN. >> LET US PRAY. ETERNAL EVER BLESSED GOD, HELP OUR SENATORS TO WALK ON YOUR PATH FOR THE GLORY OF YOUR NAME. HELP THEM TO WALK WITH HUMANITY– HUMILITY, SO THEY WILL STRIVE TO BE SERVANTS OF THE PEOPLE. HELP THEM TO WALK WITH FORGIVENESS, SO THAT THEY WILL FORGIVE AS THEY DESIRE TO BE FORGIVEN. HELP THEM TO WALK WITH COURAGE, SO THAT NOTHING WILL DEFLECT THEM FROM THE WAY THEY OUGHT TO TAKE. HELP THEM TO WALK WITH ENDURANCE. SO THAT NOTHING MAY DAUNT OR DISCOURAGE THEM UNTIL THEY REACH THEIR GOAL. LORD HELP THEM TO WALK WITH LOYALTY SO THAT NOTHING WILL EVER SEDUCE THEIR HEARTS FROM THEIR DEVOTION TO YOU. WE PRAY IN YOUR LOVING NAME, A MAN. — AMEN. >> Harris: AND WITH THAT, WE ARE WATCHING NOW, THE BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL HAS PASSED. ON THE VOTE, BREAKING THE TIE OF THE VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. CHARLES, YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT THE TAX PORTION OF THIS. WHAT GOOD DOES THIS DO OUTSIDE OF SAVING WHAT THE PRESIDENT PUT INTO PLACE WITH TAX CUTS, THAT WERE MONUMENTAL FOR SO MANY AMERICANS ACROSS THE COUNTRY. WHAT DOES THIS ALLOW HIM TO DO GOING FORWARD. >> THIS IS THE POINT OF IT ALL, TO BE HONEST, THE GROWTH AFFECT, THE MULTIPLIER– MULTIPLIER EFFECT OF BUSINESS IS KEEPING WHAT THEY EARN AND INVESTING INTO FUTURE PROJECTS AND EMPLOYEES. THAT’S WHAT THE ECONOMY IS. AND IT’S ONE THING WHEN YOU SAY THINGS ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL AND YOU HOPE FOR THINGS ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY VERY CONTENTIOUS. YOUR CONVERSATION WITH CHIP ROY SHOWS THAT WHEN IT GETS BACK TO THE HOUSE THAT WE COULD HAVE ANOTHER DONNYBROOK, SO TO SPEAK. BUT PRESIDENT TRUMP PUT OUT A POST YESTERDAY, TALKING ABOUT THE GROWTH ASPECT OF THIS. AND THAT IS THE FOCUS MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE. MAKE THE PIE BIGGER. MAKE THE ECONOMIC PIE BIGGER SO EVERYONE ELSE CAN GET A CHANCE AT AN OPPORTUNITY. IT IS ONE THING TO SAY TAXES AS A LOWER INCOME HOME, IT’S ANOTHER THING TO HAVE MORE PROSPERITY TO JOINT– GROW YOUR JOB AND GROW YOUR BUSINESS, TO HAVE A BUSINESS AND START YOUR BUSINESS. AND THAT’S WHAT THE PRESIDENT IS AIMING FOR. >> Harris: WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT, AND I WANT TO GET INTO IT, KENNEDY. AT THE END OF THE FALCONER FOCUS, WE WERE WATCHING THE LEAD UP OF THE LAST FEW SECONDS OF THAT FINAL VOTE, AND HE SAID THE CUTS THAT WERE PUT IN PLACE TO MAKE THIS DEAL, THERE ARE REPUBLICANS– AND I WOULD ASSUME HE INCLUDES HIMSELF, THAT THEY ARE NOT HAPPY ABOUT IT. AND I’M ASSUMING THAT AS CHARLES SAYS THAT CAN BE PUT BACK IN BY THE HOUSE, BUT THE CUT DOWN ON THE GREEN NEW DEAL, AND THEY CUT SOME OF THAT OUT TO MAKE A DEAL TODAY. THE GIVEAWAYS, THIS IS CHIP ROY, REPRESENTATIVE FROM TEXAS TALKING. THE GIVEAWAYS WITH THE MEDICAID SCAM, THEY’RE NOT TRYING TO JUST GET OUT FRAUD, BUT THEY WANT TO GIVE MONEY AWAY FOR SENATOR MAKOWSKY FROM ALASKA TO VOTE YES TO THIS, WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THAT? >> Kennedy: A LOT OF THAT WAS OFFSET FROM OBAMACARE. SO THAT WAS EXPANDING MEDICAID FOR STATES LIKE ALASKA, AND INSTEAD OF REALLY REFORMING THE SYSTEM. AND THE WAY THEY ARE DOING IT IS STILL A BAND-AID. IT’S STILL A STOPGAP. AND I THINK THEY REALLY HAVE TO FOCUS MORE OF THEIR ATTENTION ON THESE MEANINGFUL REFORMS GOING FORWARD. BECAUSE THAT SHOULD NOT BE THE THING THAT KILLS THIS BILL. THAT SHOULD NOT BE THE THING THAT KILLS TAX CUTS. BUT IT ALSO OPENS A VERY INTERESTING FISHER WITHIN THE PARTY. BECAUSE YOU HAVE CONSTITUTIONALISTS LIKE CHIP ROY, AND THE FREEDOM TALK IS, AND THE HOUSE, AND THE MODERATES IN THE SENATE, LIKE LISA MARKOWSKI, AND SUSAN CUT– SENATOR MURKOWSKI, AND LISA COLLINS, WAS OUT FOR REELECTION. THEY WILL PUSH FOR MORE LIBERAL ASPECTS TO THIS BILL THAT EXPANDED GOVERNMENT, WHICH IS A RECIPE TO– FOR DISASTER. IF YOU’RE GOING TO GROW THE ECONOMY, YOU ALSO HAVE TO CUT SPENDING. AND THAT IS THE ISSUE THAT PEOPLE LIKE RAND PAUL HAVE WITH THE BILL. >> Harris: KENNEDY, DO YOU REALLY THINK THAT IT CAME CLOSE ENOUGH AS CHIP ROY, THE REPRESENTATIVE FROM TEXAS, WAS LAYING OUT? THAT THEY WOULD PROMISE TO GIVE LISA MURKOWSKI THE MONEY THAT SHE WANTED? BECAUSE DEMOCRATS HAVE– CAN DEMOCRATS TANK THIS IN ANYWAY? I AM BAFFLED, WE ARE AT A TIE, CLEARLY IT WAS CLOSE. >> Kennedy: THEY DID NOT NEED TO TANK THIS. THE REPUBLICANS DID IT ALL ON THEIR OWN BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT BE MORE COMFORTABLE MARGIN WOULD BE IN THE SENATE. MATHEMATICALLY, IN TERMS OF THE RATIO OF REPUBLICAN VOTES, YOU HAVE MORE OF THEM IN THE SENATE, AND THEY LOST THREE OF THEM. SO IT IS EVEN TIGHTER IN THE HOUSE. SO HOW DO YOU GO BACK TO THIS TO THE HOUSE AND COME UP WITH A COMPROMISE? BECAUSE THESE ARE SOME BIG ISSUES. THIS IS STILL A BIG GOLF THAT THEY HAVE TWO TIGHT ROPE TO PASSED’S BILL AND HAVE IT SIGNED– GOLF. >> AND THE OTHER REASON THAT THEY THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE DOING BETTER, OR HAVE AN EASIER ROAD IN THE SENATE, IS THAT THE SENATE PAT– PROMISED ALL THE SPENDING CUTS. AND SOME OF THAT GOT SHAVED TO THE POINT WHERE CONGRESSMAN ROY IS TALKING ABOUT, MAYBE THEY’RE NOT COMFORTABLE WITH OUTS CUT DOWN NOW. >> NOW IT HAS TO GO BACK TO THE HOUSE ON THE HOUSE HAS TO VOTE. AND HOW DOES THAT HAPPEN, DOESN’T HAPPEN? I THINK THERE’S A GOOD CHANCE IT HAPPENS. BUT LET ME TALK ABOUT SOME OF THE STUFF THAT IS IN THIS BILL THAT WILL HELP MIDDLE-CLASS. THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF DISINFORMATION ABOUT THIS, AND THAT IS BASICALLY THAT IT HELPS TRUMP’S BILLIONAIRE FRIENDS. NOTHING COULD BE FURTHER FROM THE TRUTH. REMEMBER, NO TAX ON TIPS, A SOCIAL SECURITY, CAR LOANS, ON AMERICAN CARS, DOES WOULD BE DEDUCTIBLE. SO YOU ARE SEEING A LOT OF THINGS IN HERE THAT WILL HELP REGULAR AMERICANS, AND NOTHING WOULD HELP THEM MORE THAN DONALD TRUMP’S ORIGINAL TAX CUTS. IT HELPS THE MIDDLE CLASS, THE LOWER CLASS, SO THIS IS ALL GOOD NEWS. I WANT TO SAY THAT THE CBO HAS BEEN NO HELP HERE. THE CBO SAYS THERE WILL BE 3.3 TRILLION MORE IN DEFICITS OVER THE NEXT TEN YEARS BECAUSE OF THIS BILL. THEY GOT IT WRONG, AND THAT’S FOR EXACTLY THE REASONS WE HAVE TALKED ABOUT. YOU BROUGHT THIS UP EARLIER, THAT THE ECONOMY WILL GROW UNDER THIS BILL. IT’S GOING TO GET BIGGER. IT WILL SPIN OFF MORE TAX REVENUE AND MAKE OUR COUNTRY WEALTHIER. >> Charles: TO YOUR POINT, THE CBO ON THE ORIGINAL TAX CUT BILL SAID IT WOULD CUT ONE POINT TRIP– 1.5 TRILLION. INSTEAD OF ADDING 1.5 TRILLION. CUTTING 1.5 TRILLION OUT. SO IN OTHER WORDS, THEY WERE 1 MILLION TIMES ROLLING OUT THE $3 TRILLION OFF. — THEY WERE 1 MILLION TIMES OFF. BUT A LOT OF THESE FOLKS IN D.C. REALLY SEEM BEHOLDEN TO IT, AND IT IS EASY TO GAME. THAT IS WHAT BOGGLES MY MIND. I FEEL LIKE IT’S MORE FOR PUBLIC CONSUMPTION THAN IT IS FOR BEING IN THE REALISTIC WORLD. >> Harris: PRESIDENTS WANT THAT DELIVERABLE. THEY WANT THAT INITIAL VISION PICKED THE PRESIDENT GOT IT ALREADY THIS MORNING. HE HAS TALKED IN DEEP ABOUT THE NUMBER, TO– 2700 GANG MEMBERS THAT HAVE BEEN PICKED UP IN SHORT ORDER. A LEGAL MEMBERS, SUSPECTED GANG MEMBERS. ILLEGAL ALIENS. HE IS HAVING A DELIVERABLE THERE. THIS CAN LEAD US TO ANOTHER ONE. >> Harris: I SPOKE WITH BORDER CZAR TOM HOMAN YESTERDAY, INTERVIEWING HIM WHEN I SUBBED IN FOR JIMMY ON ANOTHER SHOW, AND HE SHARED THAT THE COLOSSAL IMPACT THAT WE INHERITED FROM THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION, AND THE WAVE OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION THAT HE SAID WOULD TAKE A DECADE TO ACTUALLY CLEAN UP AND ADDRESS. AND WE TALKED ABOUT THE BRAVE AND EFFICACIOUS WORK OF I.C.E. AGENTS AND DHS RIGHT NOW, BUT THE REALITY IS THAT WE HAVE TO GO INTERNALLY AND CLEAN HOUSE. SO WHAT THIS OB THREE DOES IN THE WAY OF RESOURCES FOR THAT, AND ALLEGATION– ALLOCATION, IS PARAMOUNT. BECAUSE I THINK WE HAVE SUCCESSFULLY STOP THE FLOOD GATES AT THE BORDER, BUT THE REALITY IS THAT ON THE INTERIOR FRONT, THERE IS A LOT THAT WE DO NOT KNOW, AND WHAT WE DO KNOW IS THAT WE NEED RESOURCES FOR THAT. AND I SPOKE WITH CONGRESSMAN RICK CRAWFORD FROM ARKANSAS, AND HE TALKED ABOUT THE AGRICULTURAL COMMUNITIES. HE SAID THOSE ARE THE HEART AND SOUL OF RURAL AMERICA. AND WHEN WE TALK ABOUT THESE TAX CUTS, THEY SPEAK TO PEOPLE AND SAY WHAT IS THE BEST FOR YOUR CONSTITUENTS. WHAT DO YOUR PEOPLE NEED? IT IS ALL OF THE SAME. THAT IS THE ENTIRE POINT. THE MASSIVE IMPACT THAT IT WOULD HAVE HAD IF IT DIDN’T PASS, OR DOES NOT PASSED DOES PASS THE HOUSE, IT WOULD BE CATASTROPHIC AND DEVASTATING. CHILD TAX CREDITS, FAMILIES, 60 PERCENT, SMALL BUSINESSES, EVERY SINGLE PERSON IS AFFECTED. AND THE SENATORS FROM ALABAMA AND OKLAHOMA AT THE CODE– ECHOED THE SAME. IT MAY NOT BE PERFECT, BUT IT WOULD BE DEVASTATING IF IT DID NOT PASS. >> Harris: TALKING ABOUT IT PLAINLY, AS WE DO OFTEN ON THE COUCH, IF YOU CAN IMAGINE STRUGGLING UNDER HIGH INFLATION AT ONE .9% UNDER JOE BIDEN FOR THE LAST FOUR YEARS, PRICE SETTING GOING TO HIGHER RATES AND NEVER COMING BACK DOWN, THE INFLATION HAS COME DOWN PRECIPITOUSLY AS PRESIDENT TRUMP HAD PROMISED. BUT THE GOVERNMENT DOES NOT SET THE PRICES. WE ARE A CAPITALISTIC NATION. SO THOSE PRICES ARE HIGH. TO TAKE AWAY PEOPLE’S ABILITY TO PAY FOR THOSE PRICES THAT THEY HAVE HAD TO BE BUCKLED UNDER AND STRUGGLED UNDER FOR FOUR YEARS, WITH LESS MONEY TO PAY FOR THEM IF THIS– THIS DOES NOT PASS THE HOUSE, THAT IS INCONCEIVABLE. THAT WOULD BE PUNISHMENT ON PUNISHMENT. >> MY FATHER IS ALMOST 80. AND COVID ALMOST TOTALLY DESTROYED OUR SMALL FAMILY FARM AND AGRICULTURAL COMMUNITY, AND IT WAS MADE ALL THE WORSE BECAUSE IT WAS IN A BLUE AREA IN OREGON. AND THE REALITY IS THAT NOW HE DOES EVERYTHING HIMSELF OR ALL OF THAT REASON. THE COST CUTTING THAT WE HAVE TO ENDURE BECAUSE OF THE SUFFOCATION FROM FEDERAL REGULATIONS AND TO THE STATES PILING IN, YOU ARE RIGHT. YOU CANNOT AFFORD IT. WE CANNOT AFFORD T
