US President Donald Trump warned ‘cost-cutting’ Republicans as the debate is underway in the Senate , wrestling over the administration's Big Beautiful bill.
"For all cost cutting Republicans, of which I am one, REMEMBER, you still have to get reelected," he wrote. "Don't go too crazy! We will make it all up, times 10, with GROWTH, more than ever before."
The Senate's weekend deliberations remain unpredictable and fluid. Republican leadership is striving to meet the July 4 deadline set by Trump for package approval, having narrowly achieved a procedural milestone amidst tension the previous day.

Several Republican dissenters initially opposed the measure, requiring intervention through Trump's telephone calls and J D Vance's personal visit to maintain progress.
Following Trump's criticism of his stance against significant Medicaid reductions, GOP Senator Thom Tillis of North Carolina declared on Sunday his decision against seeking re-election.
The Congressional Budget Office's latest assessment indicates that under the proposed legislation, 11.8 million additional Americans would lose insurance coverage by 2034. The analysis also projects a deficit increase of nearly USD 3.3 trillion over ten years.
The Senate proposal encompasses USD 4 trillion in tax reductions, extending Trump's 2017 rates indefinitely and introducing new measures, including tax-free tips. It aims to reduce green energy incentives, potentially affecting renewable energy investments, whilst implementing USD 1.2 trillion in cuts to Medicaid and food stamps through stricter eligibility requirements.
The legislation allocates USD 350 billion for border and national security, including deportation funding, partially financed through new immigrant fees.
Should the Senate succeed in overnight voting, the bill would return to the House, with Speaker Mike Johnson alerting members to prepare for possible reconvening the following week.
