Trump admin live updates: Vance casts tie-breaking vote to pass megabill in Senate

After three days of debate and drama, the Senate narrowly passed President Donald Trump’s giant tax and immigration bill on Tuesday.

Vice President JD Vance cast the tie-breaking vote after a 50-50 tally, with three Republicans voting against the sprawling measure.

The bill must now go to the House for final approval. But it could face some issues there, especially among GOP fiscal hawks, as the Senate version is projected to add roughly $1 trillion more to the deficit than what the House passed back in May.

Speaker Mike Johnson says House will start work ‘immediately’

Speaker Mike Johnson and top Republican leaders announced in a statement that the House will consider the bill “immediately for final passage” — with renewed intent to put the measure on President Trump’s desk by July 4.

“The House will work quickly to pass the One Big Beautiful Bill that enacts President Trump’s full America First agenda by the Fourth of July. The American people gave us a clear mandate, and after four years of Democrat failure, we intend to deliver without delay,” the leaders said.

“This bill is President Trump’s agenda, and we are making it law. House Republicans are ready to finish the job,” they added.

The House Rules Committee will convene at 1:30 p.m. ET on Tuesday to markup the bill and set parameters for floor debate and consideration of the bill.

Trump tells ABC he believes bill will ‘go very nicely’ in House

ABC News Chief White House Correspondent Mary Bruce pressed President Trump on House Republicans who say they are unhappy with the changes the Senate made to the bill.

“What is your message to those holdouts?” Bruce asked the president.

“Well, I just heard that about the Senate, and the bill just passed, and it tells you there’s something for everyone,” Trump said. “I mean, we have — it’s a great bill. There is something for everyone, and I think it’s going to go very nicely in the House. Actually, I think it will be easier in the House than it was in the Senate.”

ABC’s Bruce also followed up with asking Trump about the cuts to Medicaid that the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office projects would cause 11.8 million Americans to lose their insurance.

Trump said he believed the amount of people who would lose coverage would be less than projected, but did not say where he was getting such data or analysis from.

“I’m saying it’s going to be a very much smaller number than that and that number will be waste, fraud and abuse,” he said.

‘Wow’: Trump reacts in real time to Senate passing his legislation

President Trump learned about the Senate passage of his domestic policy bill during a roundtable event as he toured the so-called “Alligator Alcatraz” migrant detention center in Florida.

“I was also wondering how we doing, because I know this is prime time, it shows that I care about you, because I’m here and I probably should be there, but we do care,” Trump said.

Trump said that he will be going back to Washington to celebrate.

“We’re gonna finish over here, and then we’ll go over there. We’ll go back and celebrate the big, beautiful bill,” Trump said. Though notably, Democrats had the title “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” stricken just before the final vote.

“You sure that’s right?” Trump asked the reporter when informed of the results.

“Wow,” was Trump’s response when he was told the information was correct.

Trump admin live updates: ‘One Big Beautiful Bill’ clears 1st procedural hurdle

President Donald Trump will continue to push the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” as Senate Republicans try to meet Trump’s Fourth of July deadline for passage.

On Saturday, after a vote lasting more than four h

Republican holdouts negotiated with leaders on deficit, Medicaid

After a bloc of four conservative “Big Beautiful Bill” holdouts finally voted late on Saturday night to move the legislation in a direction towards final passage, they claimed that negotiations with Republican leaders surrounding deficit reduction and Medicaid changes helped them feel “more comfortable” with its advancement.

“It was a beautiful night for the Big Beautiful Bill,” Sen. Eric Schmitt, a key negotiator during meetings on Saturday, said after the vote.

Still, Sens. Ron Johnson — who flipped his vote, Rick Scott, Cynthia Lummis and Mike Lee did not tell reporters whether they’d support the final bill, even after huddling with Senate Majority Leader John Thune, Vice President J.D. Vance, Majority Whip John Barrasso and some others during the over three hour vote.

Most of the four conservatives were tight-lipped about their negotiations with leadership after voting, but Johnson said that they were promised a vote on an amendment that would lower the Federal Medical Assistance Percentage match provided to able-bodied, childless people who are new enrollees to Medicaid expansion under the Affordable Care Act.

“We want to preserve Medicaid for disabled children,” Johnson said. “I never had a problem with the House bill in terms of avoiding a massive tax increase, default funding for the border, for defense, the spending reductions they did get. My big beef there is…again, we still have to do so much more, because it’s hard, okay, because it’s such an enormous mess,” he added, blaming years of Democratic policies like Obamacare.

Johnson said that the promised amendment was Scott’s idea.

Lummis and Lee said that talks over their concerns about further deficit reductions and tax cuts help them get to a “yes” vote.

“We had an internal discussion about a strategy to achieve more savings, more deficit reduction,” Lee said after the vote, adding that he’s “more comfortable” now with the bill.

All agreed on the need for “as many tax cuts” and “as much spending clarity” as possible, Lummis said.

“I want to thank Vice President Vance for coming up and President Trump for his help in getting to yes, and we’ve got a good product, and we’re going to promote it and pass it this week,” she said.

ours, the Senate voted to advance the legislation, kicking off a lengthy process that GOP leadership hopes will end in its final passage.

Israel-Iran live updates: Trump says he would bomb Iran again ‘without a question’

President Donald Trump told ABC News on Tuesday morning he is “not happy” with either Israel or Iran after the opening hours of a nascent ceasefire between the two combatants were marred by reported exchanges.

Trump said Iran and Israel both “violated” the ceasefire that he announced late on Monday, in comments made as he departed the White House.

On Wednesday morning, the president and his administration continued to push back on an early intelligence report suggesting that the U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities likely only set Tehran’s nuclear program back by months.

Trump says he would bomb Iran again ‘without a question’

President Donald Trump said on Friday he would bomb Iran again “without a question” if intelligence were to find that Iran can enrich uranium to a level higher than what he is comfortable with.

“Without a question. Absolutely,” he told reporters in the White House briefing room.

“They’re exhausted. The last thing they are thinking about is nuclear [weapons],” Trump said of Iran.

Responding to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s claim that Iran won the war, Trump said, “You got beat to hell. Israel was beat up too, they were both beat up.”

Trump doubles down on claim Iran’s nuclear sites were ‘obliterated’

President Donald Trump on Friday doubled down on his claim that Iran’s nuclear sites were “obliterated” and said it would take “years” before the country could restart its program.

“I don’t believe that they’re going to go back into nuclear anytime soon. They spent over $1 trillion on nuclear and they never got it together. And nothing was moved from the site, by the way, to do that is very dangerous. It’s very, very heavy material,” he told reporters in the White House briefing room on Friday.

Trump also said that Iran now wants to meet and negotiate a deal.

“I’ve been saying for 25 years, even as a civilian, you cannot let them have a nuclear weapon and that’s what happened. It’s been obliterated,” he said. “It would be years before they could ever get going. And I really think it’s probably the last thing they have to recover from a hell of a tough war.”

Iran may still be ‘days’ from nuke, Democrats skeptical uranium was destroyed

Following a classified briefing, House Speaker Mike Johnson said that Iran’s nuclear capabilities suffered a “major setback” after the U.S. bombed three sites there last weekend, telling reporters that lawmakers received a “thorough” and “very helpful” closed-door briefing — but Democrats left the briefing worried that Iran’s cache of enriched uranium may have not been destroyed.

Asked about that uranium stockpile by ABC News, Johnson downplayed the significance of an initial intelligence assessment from the Pentagon which showed that Iran’s stockpile was not destroyed.

“We have a sense about that, some of this is classified, but I will tell you that there was a CIA press release, I think it went out yesterday, and they concluded that this is a quote, ‘Iran’s nuclear program has been severely damaged,’ unquote,” Johnson said. “I’ll put that in layman’s terms. I would say it’s a substantial setback.”

But the only PhD nuclear physicist serving in Congress, Rep. Bill Foster, told reporters that he worries Iran’s uranium survived.

“I know this technology pretty well. I was very disappointed that we learned very little about the inventory of high enriched uranium, 60% enriched uranium, and its whereabouts and what that meant for the breakout time to Iran’s first nuclear device,” Foster said. “There is, I think frankly, a very over-optimistic portrayal of what was and was not accomplished by this mission, because we do not have understanding and control of where all of that material is.”

Democrats said there are “massive inconsistencies” remaining — and if the uranium was not destroyed, Foster believes Iran could still be “days” or “a very brief period of time” from building a nuclear bomb.

“We’re talking about 20 or 30 scuba tanks full of material, where any two or so of those scuba tanks provide enough material for a first nuclear weapon,” he said. “That is what we’re trying to understand – where the location is and the disposition in the situation where the intelligence may or may not be complete.”

Foster said “the game was lost” when President Trump withdrew from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, also known as the Iran nuclear deal, in 2018.

“Under that under the JCPOA, we had very strict limits and enforced limits on their inventory of enriched uranium at different levels. And when that was lost, the game was lost,” he said. “And now we’re in a situation where they have very large inventories of quite significantly enriched uranium, and unfortunately that implies a very small breakout time to a first nuclear device.”

Former Army Ranger Jason Crow of Colorado, leaving the briefing, said he was “shocked” by the “massive inconsistencies that remain between what Congress has been previously briefed and informed and what we heard today.” The congressman added he is “not convinced whatsoever” that Iran’s nuclear sites have been completely destroyed.

Israel-Iran live updates: Hegseth defends Iran bombing, says media undermining ‘success’

President Donald Trump told ABC News on Tuesday morning he is “not happy” with either Israel or Iran after the opening hours of a nascent ceasefire between the two combatants were marred by reported exchanges.

Trump said Iran and Israel both “violated” the ceasefire that he announced late on Monday, in comments made as he departed the White House.

On Wednesday morning, the president and his administration continued to push back on an early intelligence report suggesting that the U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities likely only set Tehran’s nuclear program back by months.

Centrifuges at Fordow nuclear facility ‘suffered a great deal,’ IAEA Director says

The centrifuges at Iran’s Fordow nuclear facility “have suffered a great deal,” International Atomic Energy Agency Director Rafael Grossi said Thursday.

“Given the scale and capacity of the military means used, we can deduce that the centrifuges have suffered a great deal, if [they] have not been destroyed,” Grossi said, originally in French.

When asked if it’s possible that some of the technology or centrifuges at Fordo survived, are still operational or have been moved, Grossi said “it’s a hypothesis,” that can’t be ruled out.

Grossi said while he understands the logic behind Israel and the U.S.’s decision to strike Iran’s nuclear facilities, he said he believed “there was a diplomatic path.” Grossi acknowledged Iran was not cooperating in the U.S.-Iran negotiations before military intervention was taken.

“I could never say the solution was [using the] military. I’m not criticizing. It’s not my position to do so,” Grossi said. “Until the day military action was triggered, Iran was not cooperating in the necessary way.”
