Trump’s Tax Cuts Roar Back: Senate GOP Smashes Through Filibuster | Budget Showdown on Capitol Hill - video Dailymotion

Oneindia

In a dramatic late-night session, Senate Republicans passed a budget blueprint that sets the stage for extending Donald Trump’s tax cuts — and they did it without a single Democratic vote. By bypassing the filibuster through budget reconciliation, the GOP now has a clear path to push through Trump’s economic, military, and border priorities.    With $5 trillion in potential spending cuts and a looming debt ceiling crisis, this vote marks the beginning of a high-stakes budget war on Capitol Hill. Will this reshape America’s economic future — or ignite political chaos?    #TrumpTaxCuts #SenateVote #BudgetBattle #USPolitics #GOPAgenda #TaxReform #FilibusterBypassed #DonaldTrump #GovernmentSpending #CongressUpdate #OneindiaNews #CapitolHill  ~HT.318~PR.274~GR.125~ED.346~

00:00The President's imposition of tariffs against Canada that will be a costly tax increase

00:24on American families.

00:26If the President has concerns about trade issues with Canada, guess what?

00:31This President negotiated a signature trade deal, the USMCA, that got 89 bipartisan votes

00:39in this chamber, and he has a negotiating process to find a resolution to any issue

00:46he cares about.

00:47The imposition of tariffs does nothing more than put a tax on American families.

00:53This is a tax, plain and simple.

00:55Taxes should not be enacted by one person.

00:58So I will vote today to end the emergency.

01:01I will vote today to try to reclaim the power of taxation, the power of the tariff, to where

01:08the Constitution designated it should properly be, and that is in Congress.

01:23I was there.

01:52I'm excited.

01:53Here we have a President who gives a damn about American jobs.

01:57That's exactly what this is.

01:58I'm sick and tired of the rest of the world taking advantage of our workers and our companies.

02:03So the rest of the world, they want to put barriers up to our companies, which impacts

02:07American jobs.

02:08That has ended.

02:09Ignoring the idea that there's been trillions of dollars of investment in the first hundred

02:13days.

02:14We're going to be building cars in this country.

02:15We're going to have people who have jobs building Honda vehicles, Mercedes Benz, Nvidia chips

02:20are going to be made here.

02:21People's making record investment.

02:22They're paying more money now.

02:23Well, listen, their interest rates are super high right now, too, because we're spending

02:28two trillion dollars we don't have.

02:30So I think to rebalance this equation, we actually have to make things.

02:34The idea that we can invent things in this country and never make them here is a ruse.

02:38So I think it doesn't have to be this way.

02:42If we're saying to these countries, we're going to treat you like you treat us, just

02:45take down your trade barriers.

02:47Take down the tariffs that you have against us.

02:49I think it's heading us toward a catastrophic economic downturn, a recession, along with

02:59disastrously rising prices.

03:01I'm seeing already my constituents in Connecticut fearful, angry, deeply troubled by potential

03:08job losses, as well as higher prices for everything from gas to groceries.

03:14President Trump's whole justification for slapping tariffs on our closest partners and

03:19allies is to bring manufacturing back to the United States.

03:23And at the exact time that he is harming our relationships around the world, making costs

03:29higher for working Americans, this program that helps small and medium manufacturers

03:34grow has been eliminated.

03:35They don't know what they're doing.

03:38And the consequences for our economy, for costs, for our families and communities will

03:43be harmful and lasting.
