13:22Now PlayingIn this must-watch clip from the U.S. Senate floor, Senator Bernie Sanders delivers a scathing takedown of Donald Trump’s so-called “Big Beautiful Bill” — a sweeping piece of legislation backed by Trump allies that Sanders argues is nothing more than a handout to billionaires, corporations, and the ultra-wealthy.
With his trademark passion and straight-talking style, Sanders calls out the bill for what he sees as blatant corruption: corporate tax breaks, loopholes for the rich, and devastating consequences for working-class Americans. From healthcare and housing to climate and workers’ rights, Bernie breaks down exactly how this legislation would exacerbate inequality and undermine the social safety net.
Sanders doesn't hold back in naming names — slamming Trump’s GOP allies for pushing through what he describes as “one of the most shameful pieces of legislation in modern American history.” As Trump campaigns for a second term, Sanders warns that this bill is a preview of the policies to come: more tax cuts for the rich, more deregulation, and more pain for everyday people.
Whether you support Sanders or not, this fiery floor speech is a powerful moment of political theatre — and a reminder of the ideological battle raging in Washington.
