The bill’s critics have morphed into fiscal conservatives along with the media, but if it goes into law, the American Relief Act of 2025 fulfills most of Trump’s domestic agenda and campaign promises.
While most of us were asleep, the U.S. House passed the American Relief Act of 2025 by the slimmest possible margin – 215 to 214. This is the bill President Trump has called “One Big Beautiful Bill,” (OBBB) because it satisfies many of his domestic campaign promises and will make him unassailable as far as delivering agenda items goes if it gets through the Senate and is signed into law.
Remember, everything I put out there analytically is relative. For example, South Carolina may not have great elections, but relative to Georgia, they are exemplary. That’s why you’ll find South Carolina shaded in green on my 2024 evaluation map, and Georgia in orange. People who know how to read the fine print in bills will correctly spot problems conservative purists are identifying now with the bill, such as the potential increase in national debt over the next decade.
I can’t help but laugh reading the mainstream write-ups of OBBB. Suddenly, after four years of being a piggy bank for the world and letting every squatter who could get to Mexico slink across our southern border, the peanut gallery is the most fiscally conservative outfit you’ll ever find…
But the national debt!
Telling me the national debt will go up 10% in a decade if OBBB is signed into law is like someone warning me that a diet of donuts taking me from 450 to 495 pounds in a decade is going to kill me. Here’s a newsflash – I’m already living on borrowed time at that rate, anyway, and so is the country as it stands today. Please note, I’m not 450 pounds, so I hope to be around to write well into the future.
As an avowed pragmatist, rather than an ideological conservative, I’m sure President Trump realizes any progress made with legislation is also relative, and must be gained despite setbacks incurred using existing systems. In the real estate world, I’m sure he’s overseen the development of properties in some places he didn’t like working in and around as much as others due to various policies and roadblocks, but in the end, it all comes down to another piece in the puzzle.
Critics should remember that the OBBB isn’t the reason we have fiscal problems and a massive national debt. It has been the behavior of reckless politicians in the 21st century that has made that number soar, and it has been aided by handout programs, money paid to foreign governments that don’t need it or don’t deserve it, wasteful military conflicts, and facilitating the illegal invasion of the United States, just to name a handful of items. Those of us still on the problem-solving side of the house now have to work around the mess, like a janitor stepping through piles of puke on Saturday morning in the men’s dorm on campus.
Here are the main reasons the left and the anti-Trump uniparty hate the OBBB:
1. Tax Benefits – The bill extends the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, primarily shielding 91% of American taxpayers and setting the stage for massive small business growth through the small business deductions. Democrats, naturally, hate this stuff and insist it’s Trump helping his rich buddies out, when in reality we suffer massive tax rates when our founders threw a rebellion in Boston Harbor over a tax on their breakfast drink of choice in 1773. Trump even has increased Social Security deductions for all those mainstream media-watching seniors who hate his guts.
2. No Tax on Tips – I’ll show you some people who are excited about this one:
Nevada backed the GOP nominee for President for the first time in 20 years last fall, and one major reason Clark County swung so hard for Trump was the “no tax on tips” policy Trump campaigned on heavily there. The working-class voters in the services industry will view this as a major win, and this will set up J.D. Vance for continued success in 2028. Critics whine that this will cost the federal government major tax revenues, without giving a rat’s ass that current policy costs workers relying on two bucks an hour and customer generosity any sense of confidence they’ll be able to make it financially.
3. Border Push
Our corrupt judiciary has resisted as much of Trump’s immigration enforcement agenda as possible, so now it’s time to get something passed in legislation. Here’s what the OBBB includes:
· Wall money, in the shape of 701 miles of primary, big, beautiful wall, and over 1,600 miles of secondary barriers along rivers and pedestrian pathways.
· Tons of new jobs specializing in tossing people out of the country, with enough money to facilitate a million deportations per year.
· Gets illegals off welfare programs.
These policies are major winners, especially now that 56% of all Americans want all illegals deported. With Trump incentivizing self-deportations and penalizing government-led deportees with permanent non-entry, eight years of a Vance presidency after this administration could succeed in getting rid of all illegals. This, unlike the swelling of the national debt, is a matter of national survival and should be treated as such (by any means necessary).
Uniparty leaders and left-wing morons need immigration (legal and illegal) to continue to bring desperately poor future voters, and their American citizen babies thanks to birthright citizenship, to the country in order to sell them your American Dream.
4. Globalist Agenda – Gets away from Biden’s regulations and restrictions on federal lands, as well as other agenda items that give third-world nations the upper hand on us because they don’t feel obliged to abide by anything similar. If you’d like to put this to the test, try to go for a swim in San Diego near the Mexican border; half the time you’ll find the beach closed because Tijuana is busy pumping raw sewage into the Pacific Ocean.
Cutting off taxpayer funded subsidies to illegal immigrants will go a long way towards incentivizing millions and millions of illegal immigrants to self-deport. They did it under Obama when he kept the economy in the shitter and when they can’t afford to live here and send money home because they have to pay for rent, food and health care like regular people, they’ll be leaving in droves.
Hopefully this sails through the Senate. I can’t WAIT to see the leftist uproar when Trump signs this into law.
The bill has humongous deficit spending for rampant inflation and T-securities sold to the Fed for book entry credit then auctioned and sold for covert profit for globalist agenda. Ref, 31 CFR #375.3.
Sure, but where was this righteous concern when trillions were conjured up for Ukraine, ESG scams, and every illegal alien with a sob story? The deficit isn’t new, it’s the cost of who controls the spending.
Trump’s bill shifts that power back toward Americans. Perfect? No. Necessary? Absolutely.
Let’s not miss the forest for the fiat.
To condone ever increasing amounts of Deficit Spending because it has been done before is the path to fiscal insolvency.
The Federal Reserve has profited $36 Trillion using their exclusive control of the auctions of Treasury securities. They buy Deficit Spending T securities from the Treasury with book-entry credit. The Treasury pays bills with the credit that historically was identified as Redeemable in Gold or in Lawful Money. An increase of currency in circulation [inflation] has occurred.
When was it that a wheelborrow of cash could buy a loaf of bread ??
The Fed then auction the securities at face value and conceal the profit that legally belongs to the govt. Ref. 31 CFR §375.3. The auction accounts have never been audited.
The Rothschild history of European national banks consistently ended in an impoverished society, a bankrupt nation, and lavishly wealthy bankers. The situation of Greece appears to be similar.
No one’s “condoning” deficit spending, we’re prioritizing who benefits from it.
For 30 years, trillions funded forever wars, failed states, illegal invaders, and IMF laundering. That deficit already exists. The OBBB doesn’t fix the fiat rot, it redirects the firehose back toward the American worker:
Would I prefer sound money and a dismantled Fed? Of course. But I’m not going to stand around yelling “Rothschild!” while the country gets flooded. We fight with the tools available, or we lose by default.
You say you are not just going to stand around yelling. Is that a statement that an audit of the Federal Reserve’s accounts of auctions and distribution of Treasury securities of government money that currently exceed $15 trillion annually, and have never been audited, are planned to be audited ?
Ref. 31 CFR §375.3.
The GAO has standing authority to audit the handling of any government money.
An audit of the Fed would be fantastic. But show me the coalition, the votes, the will, the spine, to make it happen.
Until then, you don’t beat central bankers by writing comments. You beat them by building power. Trump’s bill doesn’t solve 31 CFR §375.3, it chips away at the machine:
It defunds the welfare-voter pipeline
Ends the open-border debt trap
Shifts taxation off workers and onto imports
Audit the Fed? Yes. But let’s not pretend posting the statute is a plan. Power first. Then policy. Then reform. In that order.
