The House has finally passed President Trump’s “Big, Beautiful Bill,” sending the legislation to his desk.
The vote was 218-214. Only two Republicans voted no on the final measure.
The two GOPers who voted no were Thomas Massie of Kentucky and Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania.
They can likely kiss their political careers goodbye.

The vote was supposed to take place this morning, but House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries decided to filbusterfor over eight hours by reading supposed letters from Americans worried about the bill and wildly attacking Republicans for supprting the bill, including accusing them of being un-Christian.
His speech began at 5:53 AM ET and ended at 1:37 PM ET, speaking for a record eight hours and 44 minutes. This broke the old record of 8 hours and 32 minutes held by former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy in November 2021.
Jeffries’s stunt was so pathetic that it even put some of his fellow comrades to sleep at times.
WATCH:
LMAO! Even DEMOCRATS are tired of Hakeem Jeffries droning on and on about nothing
They’re now SLEEPING behind him as he speaks.

Today’s victory for the GOP and Trump came after the House advanced Trump’s “Big, Beautiful Bill” 219-213 to a final vote after a marathon all-night session.
Speaker Mike Johnson had vowed to keep the vote on the rule to close debate and advance the bill as long as necessary. The rule finally passed just before 3:30 A.M.
But it was not without tremendous drama as the legislation appeared to fail earlier in the evening, thanks to five initial GOP no votes and with eight other members not voting.
But thanks to the combined efforts of President Trump and Speaker Johnson, all but one of the GOP no votes flipped to yes, while the other holdouts also fell in line.
The lone no vote in the end was from RINO Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick, who fled the floor shortly after casting his vote.
