00:00:00.000
The big, beautiful bill that the president was talking about, because this has to do with taxes.
00:00:05.040
This has to do with how you're going to be paying taxes moving forward.
00:00:08.000
A lot of people didn't think this was going to get done.
00:00:10.360
There was a lot of challenges with it, but it eventually ended up happening.
00:00:15.620
I think you also have the whole thing in place if you want to play the clip.
00:00:18.620
The House Rule Committee approved President Trump's big, beautiful bill in an 8-4 vote with Speaker Johnson stating at 1 a.m. Wednesday,
00:00:26.760
a very close to resolving GOP disputes, enabling a potential House-wide vote by Wednesday night or early Thursday morning.
00:00:36.400
A key amendment introduced at 9 p.m. Wednesday, accelerated Medicaid work requirements from 28, 2029 to December 2026
00:00:43.360
for able-bodied recipients and ends green energy tax subsidies by 2028 unless they show quick returns.
00:00:50.760
Addressing demands from blue state Republicans for higher salt detection caps and conservative-like Representative Chip Roy,
00:00:56.760
and Ralph Norman for stricter Medicaid rules and repeal Biden's inflation reduction at subsidies.
00:01:03.120
Rob, if you want to play this clip, and then we'll get right into it.
00:01:05.920
We look forward to the Senate's timely consideration of this once-in-a-generation legislation.
00:01:10.680
We stand ready to continue our work together to deliver on the one big, beautiful bill, as President Trump named it himself.
00:01:20.240
We're going to get it there by Independence Day on July 4th, and we are going to celebrate a new golden age in America.
00:01:27.480
Tom, what's in this big, beautiful bill, and why should everybody be paying attention?
00:01:31.800
Well, you know, when Biden had the Inflation Reduction Act, a lot of people, including us, looked into it and said,
00:01:43.720
This means that the Trump tax breaks that have all been part of the budget of the United States and they've been in place for years, including during Biden, will not be expiring.
00:01:56.620
So taxes are not going to go up on Americans at the time where they could at least use them going up right now as with the economy adjusting.
00:02:08.240
There was a bunch of green energy stuff in there that even at the time people said, you're giving away subsidies for nothing.
00:02:14.080
They're not showing that the green energy was saving money or saving on investment in new energy plants because we need nukes.
00:02:23.280
And they put a work requirement in that if you're going to get Medicaid, you're going to get food stamps, there's a work requirement.
00:02:30.360
And if you work, Vinny, what do you got to have?
00:02:35.120
So they're arguing, the Democrats are arguing, hey, you know, there's, you know, three million people aren't going to be able to get to the SNAP program.
00:02:41.820
Well, that's like an EBT card that you can go buy food with.
00:02:45.880
If you're working or you're trying to work or you have a green card, you can take advantage of it as low income.
00:02:51.400
But if you are, you just, you know, walked across from some foreign place and you're not supposed to be here, uh-oh, you can't use it.
00:03:04.520
Now, what we need to get is the fine print, Pat, and we don't have the fine, fine print.
00:03:08.180
And we're going to see that because July 4th he's talking about is it's got to go the Senate.
00:03:12.800
And Senate's going to arm wrestle over, but then Republicans are going to, you know, pass it.
00:03:17.340
It's going to happen, and then he's going to sign it.
00:03:18.920
I think he's absolutely going to sign it on July 4th.
00:03:21.160
And as a matter of fact, I don't think he wants to sign it, Pat, until July 4th.
00:03:25.220
He doesn't need to sign it until then because the tax cuts were the end of the year.
00:03:34.060
On a 1 to 10, I'm at about an 8.5 because it continues the tax cuts.
00:03:38.300
And they're moving forward, and they're actually putting some requirements on things.
00:03:41.760
And no taxes on tips I like, no taxes on overtime pay, and no taxes on car loan interest.
00:03:49.360
Now, when you hear that one, that's part of fine print because who's that going to help?
00:03:56.000
But is it car loan interest of automakers that the car's made in the U.S. or any car loan interest?
00:04:00.720
We need to assess this part of what I want to see is the fine print.
00:04:03.480
Can you find that if the car loan interest is for it?
00:04:05.700
Because what I heard is the fact that the car loan interest is specific to cars that are made in America.
00:04:12.140
And by the way, to add a few different things, here's what I looked up, Adam, before I come to you.
00:04:16.480
I asked the question, this big, beautiful bill that just passed, I want to know specifics of how it impacts the poor, the middle class, the upper class, and the super wealthy.
00:04:26.480
Household resources are projected to decrease by 2% by 2027 and 4% by 2023.
00:04:33.140
Medicaid cuts approximately 8.6 million people could lose Medicaid coverage due to $716 billion in program cuts and new work requirements.
00:04:41.300
You have to have certain requirements to get that, apparently.
00:04:44.440
And, of course, we're going to learn more about this.
00:04:47.800
This next one says, an estimated 3 million individuals may lose monthly food assistance benefits as a result of nearly $300 billion cuts to the Supplemental Nutritional System, the SNAP program, right?
00:05:00.020
If you're no longer getting the welfare program, you have to go get a job.
00:05:03.040
Under Obama, if you guys remember, the unemployment checks went from 90 days to 6 months to 12 months.
00:05:09.600
I even believe at one point they hit 24 months.
00:05:14.320
The moment they cut that unemployment rate to like 90 days or 6 months, everybody started looking for jobs.
00:05:19.540
So this $300 billion that's cut on SNAP, they have to go get that money somewhere else.
00:05:23.900
Middle income temporary increases in child tax credit up to $2,500.
00:05:29.080
No deductions on tips, overtime, and car loan interest.
00:05:33.160
I want to know the car loan interest, Rob, if that is a U.S. car loan interest or any car loan interest.
00:05:40.380
Elimination of federal subsidy, student loan for undergraduates, potentially increasing higher education expenses, high income individuals, top 10%.
00:05:47.420
Household resources are expected to rise by up to 4% in 2027, primarily due to tax cuts.
00:05:54.220
Extension of 2017 tax, Trump era tax, increased state and local SALT deduction up to $30,000.
00:06:01.280
That's the cap, creation of $1,000, MAGA savings account for children, creation of $1,000, make America great again, saving accounts for children.
00:06:12.420
Everybody born after 2024 gets a $1,000 MAGA savings account for children.
00:06:18.200
And it's tax advantage so that the parents can keep it and keep contributing.
00:06:24.160
Go make some babies, but still have a job and don't rely on SNAP.
00:06:29.360
Estate and endowment taxes, reduction of estate and new taxes on large university endowments.
00:06:34.500
And that's kind of what you have, extension of 2017 cuts, a couple other things that they had there.
00:06:42.580
You know, it's going to be one beautiful bill, one big, beautiful bill.
00:06:47.860
Good to see that Congress still exists because Trump has just taken all the oxygen out of the room since he became president.
00:07:04.360
So how many congressional districts turned Democrat in this past election?
00:07:15.600
So, you know, the old conversation with Vinny's best friend, Stephen A. Smith.
00:07:25.700
Everything is going to pass because they control Congress.
00:07:28.340
By the way, Congress, the House, they have, I think they're plus eight seats, 220 to 212.
00:07:33.180
In the Senate, they're up, I think, six seats, 53 to 47.
00:07:37.800
And it will probably pass exactly as Trump wants it on July 4th.
00:07:47.700
By the way, I was at the Wall Street conference yesterday.
00:07:49.500
Jason Lyons event and Byron Donald spoke and he talked about this exact bill, this big, beautiful bill.
00:07:57.660
He goes, you know, the Trump tax cuts that they passed in 2017.
00:08:01.600
You know how I know that they're actually going to stay and how they're legit and why they're so good?
00:08:06.020
Because the Democrats didn't do anything to try to reverse them in the last five years.
00:08:11.960
It's almost like, did you notice that Biden didn't do anything to reverse all the policies against China?
00:08:19.060
He kept the Trump's policies, the tariffs on China.
00:08:24.400
But the Democrats, apparently from Byron Donald, did not do anything to reverse the Trump tax cuts.
00:08:29.900
So it looks like this big, beautiful bill will pass.
00:08:36.620
Neither did Bill Clinton when he got to office.
00:08:39.120
He didn't touch the Reagan program, which was consistent.
00:08:45.000
And by the way, I just asked right now, I just found that the interest, the car loan interest applies only to cars assembled in the U.S.
00:08:54.420
It's only assembled in the U.S. is what that's all about.
00:08:58.020
You think this is going to pass, PBD, just like this?
00:09:02.220
Like it passed the House, now it's going to the Senate.
00:09:04.180
Look, when Hakeem Jeffries, who is the minority.
00:09:10.940
When he only gets up for 30 minutes to debate and fight this.
00:09:16.320
And if you remember Kevin McCarthy, he stood up for hours and hours and hours and hours and hours talking about how this is terrible.
00:09:30.420
And Tom, you said that this was an eight, eight and a half as a pot from one out of ten.
00:09:39.900
And I want to see the fine print because they really went down through multiple areas.
00:09:54.080
And how much does this help towards a victory for the midterms?
00:09:59.360
Because, I mean, at the end of the day, that's what he's going for.
00:10:05.000
When on day 99 I gave it a C-, I gave it a C- on what's been done, not what's pending.
00:10:11.600
As a salesperson or person that runs business, you have a lot of things that's going on.
00:10:15.700
But unless if you close the deal, it's just a good idea, right?
00:10:21.160
So today, from they're at C-, to where they're at, and they get this done by 4th of July,
00:10:25.340
that C- could be a B-plus like this with everything that's going on.
00:10:29.100
Headed towards an A-, A-, and an obvious thing.
00:10:35.680
Everywhere I go right now, I was on Jesse, I said this.
00:10:41.760
2026, if you haven't heard me say this already,
00:10:43.740
President Trump turns 80 on June 15th, next year.
00:10:55.480
2026 is going to be the most magical year to be living in America in our lifetime.
00:11:05.280
2026 is going to be the most magical year you've ever lived in America in our lifetime.
00:11:12.300
Again, 2026 will be magical because of everything that's coming together right now.
00:11:22.940
The last year, we had 1,500 husband and wives that were there.
00:11:25.700
And one of the things the guys, the David Consultant, they say,
00:11:29.320
a lot of people ask about how to balance this with family and the kids and all this other stuff.
00:11:36.400
Why don't we just do a free webinar on family, how to be a killer in business without killing your marriage?
00:11:44.420
And I said, I'm going to talk about all the mistakes I've made, okay?
00:11:46.840
And we're going to talk about how we balance all this stuff together.
00:11:48.740
So that picture they put together, for some of you guys that think that's really me with all those hands, it's not.
00:11:56.760
Rob, if you want to play the clip, go ahead and play the clip.
00:11:58.600
You know what's scary for some people is they want to be a killer in business.
00:12:01.480
They want to do a great job as an executive, as a CEO, entrepreneur, business owner,
00:12:07.140
You want to go make all the money, travel, win for your family,
00:12:10.200
but you want to stay married, you want to have a good relation with your kids,
00:12:12.620
you want your kids to still want to see how do you do this?
00:12:16.820
Number one, you're allowing your family and friends make you feel guilty for your vision,
00:12:21.360
which is going to create resentment towards them.
00:12:24.140
Number two is you lack clarity around the vision.
00:12:26.740
You don't really know what you're doing it for.
00:12:28.080
So work-life balance is a question that comes up for people that are not clear of what they want to do.
00:12:32.640
They haven't had the conversation with their family.
00:12:34.760
Number three is the concept of being intentional with the time you're spending with your family.
00:12:38.900
And number four is maybe you're just looking for an excuse to not work that hard
00:12:46.000
This concept of work-life balance comes up every single day with people who ask me this question.
00:12:51.860
On June 11th, I'm hosting a free webinar for one hour to talk about work-life balance
00:12:56.880
with the people that don't have the answer to the questions there,
00:13:01.060
I'm married now with four kids, running all these businesses.
00:13:06.540
All I'm going to do is share with you mistakes I've made and things that are working for me.
00:13:17.360
Again, on June 11th, register because it's limited seating on this webinar.
00:13:26.840
By the way, I may have my wife and one of my kids maybe join me as well.
00:13:30.000
Rob, what is the website for them to go register for this free webinar?
00:13:36.160
We have limited to 3,000 seats, so just make sure you go get registered.
00:13:43.280
I've done a lot of webinars, but we've never done a webinar on this.
00:13:46.440
This has been coming up a lot the last 60, 12 months.
00:13:48.500
In my opinion, based on the conversations I have with everyone out there,
00:13:51.300
this actually might be the most important webinar you've ever done.
00:13:56.760
I'm in the process of learning this stuff, but I can't wait to have this one with you guys.
