A man who can show where my money is going and prove it's not going to the right places is not my enemy; he's trying to help me. Stop making it about race; it's them against all of us. They will lock you up if you don't file your taxes. They're saying you have to give them your money so they can buy things like condoms and coffee cups for their employees. If you don't, they'll lock you up. Why isn't anybody living? I know I'm not the only one actually living.

Minnesota lawmakers faced a painful political moment as votes on a budget deal forced them to confront provisions many found objectionable. In the House, DFL speaker emerita Melissa Hortman was the lone DFL lawmaker to cast a vote to cut Minnesota care access for undocumented immigrants. She described the vote as taken with a heavy heart and said, "I did what leaders do. I stepped up and I got the job done for the people of Minnesota." The bill, however, was deeply unpopular within the DFL caucus. Members repeatedly expressed frustration that the measure was part of a compromise designed to secure the necessary GOP votes to pass the rest of the state budget. Hortman acknowledged the impact of her decision, stating, "We're tremendously disappointed and gut wrenched at this decision, at this compromise that compromises our communities that are most vulnerable." She also admitted the consequences of her vote on her relationships within her caucus, noting, "They're right to be mad at me. I think some of them are pretty angry. I think that their job was to make folks who voted for that bill feel like crap, and I think that they succeeded." In the Senate, a parallel scenario unfolded. Senate Majority Leader Erin Murphy felt compelled to vote for a bill she did not agree with in order to uphold the integrity of the agreed compromise. She described the moment as painful, saying, "This one hurt. This one is a wound because of its reason. My colleagues across the aisle set this as their number one priority." The decision to vote for the measure raised concerns about possible rifts within the DFL caucus, but support came from some colleagues who argued in her defense. Senator John Marty stepped forward to defend Murphy, saying, "As a member of the caucus Yes, sir. She clearly was fighting against that every step of the way. In negotiations, if we wanted a budget, we had to agree to that. She agreed to put up one vote for us because of that." Reporting from Saint Paul, Quinn Gorham covered the developments and the emotional toll of the votes on lawmakers as the session moved forward.

I'm an American citizen, born here, 37 years old, and have paid taxes my whole life. I've put a lot of money into this country and always have to pay at the end of the year. I've never had any government assistance, food stamps, or any help from the government ever. I've paid tens of thousands of dollars in taxes, and they've never helped me. People here illegally are getting all that money that I paid in, that I can't have. It was taken from me from my hard work, out of my pocket, without my permission. Now they're giving it away to people who didn't earn it.

The Democratic Party seems to think we're unaware of their actions. They've misused our money on projects that don't benefit the American people, focusing instead on supporting immigrants. It's clear they aren't representing us. Their attempts to connect with the public are transparent; we know they've been dishonest. The majority of Americans see through their lies and recognize that they have been bought and paid for. We are not interested in what they have to say anymore. It's time for them to stop pretending to care about us and go back to where they came from. We won't be fooled any longer.

Republicans must make a decision on the strongest border bill ever, as doing nothing is not an option. The former president opposes the bill because he wants to use the border problem as a political issue against me. It is widely acknowledged that the American people want a solution that ends the ineffective political rhetoric.

The speaker says he has always liked Elon Musk and is surprised by Musk's criticism regarding the bill. He would rather Musk criticize him than the bill because the bill is incredible, with $1.6 trillion in cuts, the biggest tax cut in history. The bill includes unbelievable benefits for small businesses, people, and middle-income individuals. Musk is upset because the EV mandate, which provided a lot of money for electric vehicles, was removed. Electric vehicle companies are having a hard time and want billions of dollars in subsidies. The speaker claims Musk knew about this from the beginning, and it hasn't changed.

Republican members are hearing from their constituents how current policies and their votes are affecting their lives. They will understand they either have to change their vote or their constituents will change them in the job. It will soon be very clear that the days of the Republican majority in Congress are numbered.

I disagree with supporting Republicans because they don't represent us and don't care about our well-being. Despite our support, they backstab and betray us. If they want our vote, they should listen to us and work to fix our country. Instead, they only care about their own pockets and lobbyists. They make promises but break them all. They have secret meetings and votes to screw us over. I'm done with the Republican party, except for voting for Donald J. Trump. That's all.

6 Democrats voted against a bill because Donald Trump preferred to campaign on the problem rather than solve it. The speaker believes the American people want solutions and a president focused on fixing issues, not playing political games. The bill in question would have allowed 1,800,000 illegal immigrants into the country annually, which many conservatives opposed.

**Speaker 0:** 212 Democrats voted against no tax on tips, Social Security, and overtime. If the government makes money and spends it responsibly, taxes aren't necessary. The new administration is holding the government accountable, and people are mad about it. **Speaker 1:** There's no tax on tips, overtime, or Social Security in the budget resolution. Taxes are normal. This utopia where nobody pays taxes isn't going to work. Read the budget before lecturing people about it.

Republicans are playing political games with censure resolutions because they're failing. Trump promised lower grocery prices, but they're rising. The stock market is falling, and inflation is up. Trump and House Republicans are crashing the economy. They haven't proposed any measures to improve the economic circumstances of Americans. This resolution is a distraction from their failures. House Democrats will focus on issues that matter to Americans. Every House Democrat voted against the reckless Republican budget. We stand with Medicaid and the American people, while Republicans side with their billionaire puppet masters like Elon Musk.

To my colleagues on the other side, if you reject immigrants, don't pretend to welcome them. I've drafted a bill for you, which removes the Statue of Liberty, symbolizing your intention to dismantle America's fabric. I challenge any Republican who voted for HR 2 to introduce this bill.

Remember, I am summarizing the video as if I were the original speakers. Speaker 0: Democrats all voted against tax cuts on tips, overtime, and Social Security. Keep that in mind next time they act like they care about you. Speaker 1: You need to fact check information online before spreading lies with your MAGA hat on. The claim that Democrats voted against tax cuts on tips and overtime has already been debunked, even on Elon Musk's platform. The original poster even deleted it after being fact checked. Those tax cuts weren't in the bill anyway, but cuts to Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security were. Take off the hat, put down the phone, and think about what kind of country you want your kids to grow up in, one that rewards billionaires at the expense of the middle class?

Many of you benefited from the $1.9 trillion tax cut, which is great to hear. However, if you're like me, your taxes will actually increase, not decrease.

I believe the middle class deserves a tax cut to improve the country, rather than continuing ineffective tax policies. You are wealthy, worth $20-30 million. How can you relate to the struggles of regular people? Do you shop at Walmart? I speak with those who are suffering. You pretended to be a renter in Nashua but returned to your affluent lifestyle. You claim to understand the concerns of everyday people, yet you don’t grasp their struggles. People are in distress, and it’s important to acknowledge their pain rather than dismiss it.

My Republican colleagues, led by Donald Trump, are in a meltdown because their presidential nominee and policies are unpopular. They are pushing for a nationwide abortion ban and their project 2025 is failing. Democrats just want to focus on moving the country forward and prioritizing people over politics.

Last night, the Senate voted on a budget, and I introduced an amendment to cut $1.5 trillion, about the amount of waste, fraud, and corruption we've uncovered. Every Democrat voted against it, unsurprisingly, but 29 Republicans joined them, while only 24 Republicans voted for it. Here's a list of the 29 Republicans who betrayed you to continue the fraud, waste, and corruption. If you see your senator on this list, call them and tell them we don't care if the government shuts down or what sacred cows need to be sacrificed to balance the budget. If they're not willing to do the job, they should resign. Marsha Blackburn from Tennessee, your office will be hearing from me soon.

Yesterday, Randy Fine called me. He berated me for forty two minutes about the Florida governor's race, telling me that if I entered that race, there would be real problems for me in the future, telling me that it wouldn't be nice to Byron Donalds if I ran against him as if we don't have elections in this country. Randy, if Byron is such a good candidate, he'll trounce me. But the truth is Republicans are the ones who got trounced this week. Republicans got trounced because of people like you and Byron Donald's. People like you and Byron Donald's, all you get done is write strongly worded letters, go on CNN and Fox News and whine, and then come back to your districts and act like you got something done for Americans. It's an absolute joke. The only person who's working in Washington DC goes by the name of Donald j Trump. And the do nothing congressional Republicans, many of whom are good people, but the truth of the matter is that if Elon Musk emailed you guys and asked you what you got done this week, you would say absolutely nothing. Because you know what? Going on TV, whining on podcasts, and writing tweets does not count. That does not count as getting something done for hardworking Americans. But you know the beautiful thing about all of this is that you guys endorse each other. You and Byron are thick as thieves, which is quite fitting actually. You guys endorse each other. Byron, you endorsed Randy for his congressional reelection. So Byron, let me ask you. Do you endorse Randy Fine's comment on 07/22/2025 in which in response to children starving in Gaza, Randy said, quote, starve away. This is the problem. This is the problem with you congressional Republicans is you are not focused on delivering for America first. We did not vote for foreign wars. We did not vote for bombing other countries. We did not vote for any of that. We voted for America first, period. End of story. And what you guys have done has been a complete humiliation, a complete rejection of the historic landslide, the mandate that we as voters gave president Trump. Get back to DC, do your jobs, and actually deliver America first.

I'm saying, if someone can show me where my money's going and that it's not being used right, they're not my enemy. They're trying to help me out. This isn't about race; it's about them against all of us. They'll lock you up if you don't pay your taxes, basically forcing you to give them your money so they can spend it how they want. Why aren't people living? You'll kill someone over $3. We need to do better. You're not my enemy, whether you're a Democrat or a liberal. Forget race and even immigrants. We're talking about the money they force us to spend.

"We have to realize the democrats, their whole argument is we are going to shut down the government unless you give a trillion dollars for medical benefits for illegal aliens." "And they're saying that unless you give that money to those legal aliens, unless you give those benefits to those illegal aliens, we are going to shut down the people's government." "It's such a stark contrast between two parties priorities." "We want to put the government to work for the American people first." "We're not gonna be taken hostage by the Democrats' desperate desire to give your tax money to illegal aliens." "We're just not gonna do it."

Thank you. It’s good to be here. We've been discussing how to pay for my plans. They're logical, but Washington isn't. How will I convince a divided Congress to support them, given their past behavior? It will involve taxes. Economists across the spectrum agree, although Congress isn't made up of economists. I understand the concern, but that's the reality.

Biden plans to eliminate taxes on tips for service workers, but the IRS wants to track and tax them. This contradicts Biden's promise not to raise taxes on those earning less than $400,000. The Senate passed the inflation reduction act with a tie-breaking vote from the vice president.

I'd like the Republicans to remain on the line. Democrats are welcome to leave if they choose, but I want the Republicans to stay connected. Mister president, mister president, mister president.

parliamentarian ruled that sections of it were outside of the process that they're using to get this through. Do you think that senators should respect the decisions of the parliamentarian? And what have you personally done in the last forty eight hours to try and get Republican senators who are against the bill to a yes? 'If it's not approved, your taxes will go up by 68%. Think of that. 68, a record, the highest in the history.' 'The Democrats won't approve it only because, politically, it's so good for the Republicans.' 'They're not approving border security.' 'We've done a great job at the border, but we have to add some wall.' 'We have no money for that.' 'But if the Democrats it'll be interesting to see if we get any Democrat votes. We should.' 'If I were a Democrat, I would vote for this bill all day long because it's tax cuts and so many other things that are common sense.'

I'm speaking to Republicans today. Watch your checking accounts, savings, investments, healthcare, social services, education, and food programs. Trump, Musk, and their followers are coming after you to line their own greedy pockets. Social programs, healthcare, food, and social services are being cut to create tax breaks for the wealthy. Many of you thought voting for Trump was a joke to stick it to the liberals, but now he's laughing all the way to the bank. We Democrats are going to do everything we can to save this country. It is that serious, and we will help save you too.
