Can the Big Beautiful Bill Be Stopped?

Senate Republicans jam through a final vote on the so-called
"Big, Beautiful Bill." Senator Chris Murphy steps away from the
Senate floor to join Tommy and Lovett to talk about Republican
Senator Tom Thillis's unexpected opposition to the bill, the
Medicaid cuts that sparked it, and what the bill's passage would
mean for Americans' wallets (you guessed it: more money for the
rich, less for the poor). Then, Tommy and Lovett discuss Trump's
trip to "Alligator Alcatraz," a new migrant detention facility in
the middle of the Everglades, the Supreme Court's 6-3 decision
ending the practice of nationwide injunctions, and the White
House doubling down on their claim that airstrikes "totally
obliterated" Iran's nuclear program, despite mounting evidence to
the contrary.
