Top Trump ally predicts Senate will blow past 'big, beautiful bill' deadline

Print Close By Alex Miller Published June 19, 2025 A Senate fiscal hawk doesn't believe Republicans can hit their own self-imposed timeline to pass President Donald Trump's "big, beautiful bill." Senate Republicans are racing against the clock to finish work on their version of the president's colossal bill after the House GOP advanced its offering late last month. So far, each of the 10 Senate committees has unveiled a portion of the bill and are fine-tuning each chunk to conform with Senate rules and address concerns among varying factions in the conference. 'IT JUST BAFFLES ME': SENATE REPUBLICANS SOUND ALARM OVER MEDICAID CHANGES, SPENDING IN TRUMP MEGABILL Republican leaders are gunning to put the package on the floor next week, ahead of a scheduled recess for Independence Day, but Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., believes there is enough resistance against the bill to torpedo that timeline. "I think we have enough people that are saying, 'No, we're not going to proceed to the bill prior to July 4.'" he said. "We need more time, but I think our efforts now are concentrated." Johnson has long been pushing for far deeper cuts in the package, far beyond the goal of $1.5 trillion set in the House's offering and the pursuit of $2 trillion in cuts in the Senate's package to begin putting a major dent in the nation's deficit. SENATE PANEL NAVIGATES DELICATE COMPROMISES ON MEDICAID, TAXES IN LATEST CHUNK OF TRUMP'S MEGABILL The lawmaker's remarks came during a press call where he debuted his 31-page report on the GOP's quest to ram the president's agenda through Congress. The report offered a variety of scenarios of the deficit and growth impacts the Republicans' plan could have based on varying levels of compound annual growth rates that varied from over 2%, 3% and 4%. The report was meant to be a thumb in the face of the Congressional Budget Office's findings on the bill and overall state of federal spending and deficits. But it also rejected the arguments made by Republican leaders and the White House in its pursuit of showing the reality of the nation's fiscal health and the effect the "big, beautiful bill" could have on it. 'FULLY JUSTIFIED': GRAHAM PLOWS AHEAD WITH TRUMP BORDER FUNDING DESPITE PAUL'S OBJECTIONS Ron Johnson acknowledged the sentiments of House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., and Trump that the spending cuts achieved in the House product were unprecedented but countered that "we've faced an unprecedented level of spending increase" since the pandemic. "You can argue about the twigs and leaves on the forest floor, but I'm forcing everybody to take a step back and look at the look at the forest," Ron Johnson said. "It's blazing, and we got to put this forest fire out." There are others with varying concerns, including the addition of a debt-ceiling hike and proposed changes to Medicaid, who could form a multi-faceted coalition to tank the bill. Thune can only afford to lose three votes if he hopes to pass the bill, given that the nature of the budget reconciliation process skirts the filibuster and that Democrats have been iced out of the process thus far. Ron Johnson noted that he hoped Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., wouldn't put the full bill on the floor next week because "I really think it'll be voted down." "If we do vote it down, I don't want anybody to interpret it as a slap in the face of either Leader Thune or President Trump," Ron Johnson said. "It's just saying, 'Guys, we need more time. The ball has been in the Senate court for two weeks." CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP Johnson has been a proponent of breaking up the megabill into two or three chunks, rather than tackling it all in "one fell swoop." However, he acknowledged there would need to be some kind of mechanism that would allow lawmakers to have "at least two, if not three, bites at the apple." "I understand this process is to kind of jam everybody, but let's not do what Nancy Pelosi did and say, 'Hey, got to pass this bill to figure out what's in it,'" he added. "Let's know fully what's in it. Let's do as President Trump asked. … He wants the Senate to make a better bill." Print Close URL

'It's not taxed at all': Warren Buffett shared the 'best investment' you can make to fight inflation

Moneywise and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue through links in the content below. With an estimated net worth of $161.8 billion, Warren Buffett, the CEO of Berkshire Hathaway, has built a tremendous financial empire. Now, At 94 years old, Warren Buffett has finally decided to retire from his longtime post, having announced the decision at the company's annual shareholder meeting in early May. Vice-chair Greg Abel will take over the top job as of Jan. 1, 2026, and Buffett will remain as chairman. With a net worth like his, you might anticipate Buffett living a lavish retirement. But unlike the high-roller lifestyles of other extremely rich celebrities and business people, Warren Buffett lives by smart — and surprisingly simple — investment philosophies that have positively influenced millions of investors around the world. One of his most famous rules is to buy and hold for as long as possible. 'You've got to be prepared when you buy a stock to have it go down 50% or more, and be comfortable with it… but some people are not really careful. Some people are more subject to fear than others.' Thanks to Jeff Bezos, you can now become a landlord for as little as $100 — and no, you don't have to deal with tenants or fix freezers. Here's how BlackRock CEO Larry Fink has an important message for the next wave of American retirees — here's how he says you can best weather the US retirement crisis Nervous about the stock market in 2025? Find out how you can access this $1B private real estate fund (with as little as $10) At the 2022 Berkshire Hathaway annual shareholder's meeting, Buffet said 'Whatever abilities you have can't be taken away from you. They can't be inflated away from you,' he said. 'The best investment by far is anything that develops yourself, and it's not taxed at all.' While this isn't a traditional investment tip, Buffett firmly believes that by regularly investing in knowledge and self-improvement, you yourself become an asset and can more easily access opportunities for growing your wealth. Even now, Buffett has wise investment advice for investors seeking to shield their wealth and even grow it while keeping their tax obligations low. Here are some of his top investing strategies. Real estate is generally a 'good investment' during times of inflation, according to Buffett. 'They're the businesses that you buy once and then you don't have to keep making capital investments subsequently. So, you do not face the problem of continuous reinvestments involving greater and greater dollars because of inflation,' he said during the 2015 Berkshire Hathaway shareholders meeting. But, while real estate might be a good investment, its barrier to entry can be difficult to cross. Luckily, there are plenty of platforms out there that allow you to invest in real estate with ease. First National Realty Partners makes it easy for accredited investors to diversify through opportunities in grocery-anchored, necessity-based retail space. Through FNRP's online platform, accredited investors can potentially collect quarterly cash flow through a diverse real estate portfolio. New investing platforms are making it easier than ever to tap into the real estate market. For accredited investors, Homeshares gives access to the $36 trillion U.S. home equity market, which has historically been the exclusive playground of institutional investors. With a minimum investment of $25,000, investors can gain direct exposure to hundreds of owner-occupied homes in top U.S. cities through their U.S. Home Equity Fund — without the headaches of buying, owning or managing property. With risk-adjusted internal returns ranging from 14% to 17%, this approach provides an effective, hands-off way to invest in owner-occupied residential properties across regional markets. Read more: Rich, young Americans are ditching the stormy stock market — Buffett has been around the block a few times, experiencing many highs and lows in the U.S. economy. He has managed a stock portfolio through periods of double-digit inflation rates in the 1970s and has plenty of insight on what to own when consumer prices spike. Buffett likes high-quality businesses with low capital needs, such as Apple. The technology company boasts some impressive financial metrics — a testament to the company's efficiency, strength and negotiating power — which have enabled it to thrive during this period of inflation. While Buffett is known for being uninterested in gold investing — describing it in a 2011 letter to shareholders as an asset 'that will never produce anything' — other money mavens consider it to be a solid hedge against inflation because its purchasing power has remained relatively stable over time. Opting for a gold IRA gives you the opportunity to hedge against market volatility by allowing you to invest directly in physical precious metals rather than stocks and bonds. If you'd like to convert an existing IRA into a gold IRA, companies typically offer 100% free rollover. Priority Gold is an industry leader in precious metals, offering physical delivery of gold and silver. Plus, they have an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau and a 5-star rating from Trust Link. If you'd like to convert an existing IRA into a gold IRA, Priority Gold offers 100% free rollover, as well as free shipping, and free storage for up to five years. Qualifying purchases will also receive up to $10,000 in free silver.

Turtle rehab program shut down at Gumbo Limbo Nature Center in Boca Raton

Dozens of rescued sea turtles in need of new home after nonprofit pulls out Dozens of rescued sea turtles in need of new home after nonprofit pulls out Dozens of rescued sea turtles in need of new home after nonprofit pulls out There's change ahead for the Gumbo Limbo Nature Center in Boca Raton. The 20 acre oceanside fixture which offers visitors a raised boardwalk, tower, aquariums and the Florida Atlantic University Marine Research Center will no longer have a turtle rehabilitation facility. The nonprofit The Coastal Stewards, which has operated the turtle rehabilitation program for decades, announced it was shut down last Friday because of financial trouble. The gift shop was also closed. The move does not affect any other part of Gumbo Limbo, manager Leanne Welch said. The nature center received more than 200,000 visitors a year, most from South Florida. There are 13 injured turtles being treated at the rehabilitation facility and Welch said treatment will continue. There is no timeline when the injured turtles may be moved. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission will decide where they are sent. Some may be transferred to Zoo Miami. The manager of Zoo Miami's turtle program said they have two tanks currently occupied but they have worked with Gumbo Limbo before. Other possible locations for transfer are in Juno beach and Marathon.
