In a dramatic late-night session, Congress passed the sweeping “One Big Beautiful Bill,” signed into law by President Trump on July 4, 2025. The legislation squeaked through the Senate in a 50-50 tie, broken by Vice President Vance, and passed the House by just four votes (218-214).

Enoch and Tim break down the key provisions, discuss why the bill is so controversial, and react calmly as they compare this bill to other hallmark deficit bills across modern presidential administrations
