[American Liberty] President Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill (BBB) is not merely a piece of legislation. It is a rhetorical wrecking ball aimed squarely at Washington’s most sacred myths, many of them cultivated over decades of bipartisan complacency. Last night, as Senate Democrats took to the floor in a flurry of demagoguery and distortion, one could almost hear the tremble in the marble. Their panic was palpable, their arguments tired, and their relationship to the truth tenuous at best. So terrified are they of the bill’s popularity and substance that they’ve resorted to every delay tactic in the book. Most absurdly, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) forced Senate staff to read aloud the entire 900-page Big Beautiful Bill, an act of performative obstruction more befitting a satire than a serious legislative body. What unfolded was not a reasoned debate but a primal scream from a political class confronted by its own irrelevance.
