President Donald Trump's budget bill faced a setback as Republican divisions led to its defeat in the House Budget Committee

President Donald Trump's "one big beautiful bill," a massive tax and spending proposal, was defeated in the House Budget Committee due to GOP infighting on Friday, with five members of the hard-right Freedom Caucus demanding deeper cuts to Medicaid and faster rollout of new work requirements for aid recipients. See the story in the video aboveAll Democrats voted against the bill, citing deep cuts to social programs, while the Freedom Caucus warned leadership that their votes would not come easily.Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, said, "I am a no on this bill unless serious reforms are made today, tomorrow, Sunday. We're having conversations as we speak, but something needs to change, or you're not going to get my support."House Speaker Mike Johnson is feeling pressure from both flanks of his party, as moderate Republicans from high-tax states like California and New York want to increase deductions for state and local income taxes, known as SALT. With one of the most narrow majorities in history, it doesn't take much to gain leverage, especially with all Democrats expected to vote against the bill.The speaker wanted to pass this bill by Memorial Day, but that's now looking increasingly unlikely. Some Republicans, especially those from swing districts, are wary of the optics of cutting health coverage for low-income Americans, while conservatives argue the cuts don't go far enough, contributing to the internal tug-of-war that helped tank the vote.President Trump has already taken to social media, urging Republicans to "stop talking and get it done."
