Rand Paul has shifted from “no way” to “maybe yes” on Trump’s “Big, Beautiful Bill” — but he’s not giving in without tough conditions. In this Morning Report, Willie Lawson breaks down: ✅ What’s really in the BBB (hint: tax cuts, defense and border spending — and a staggering $5 trillion debt ceiling increase)
🛑 Why Rand Paul hated it — calling it reckless, fiscally tone-deaf, and a political liability
🤝 What changed — a direct call from Trump and leverage that only Paul holds in a razor-thin Senate
⚠️ Reactions from Sen. Johnson, Speaker Johnson, Elon Musk, and Democrats — and why GOP unity is still shaky
🎯 What this means — can Paul wring real concessions or will it be all optics? What’s at stake in the debt‑over‑deficit GOP debate? Paul’s stance so far: “I’m not an absolute no — but get that debt ceiling separated or trimmed, deepen spending cuts, and I’ll vote yes.” In other words — deal with me, don’t bypass me. 🔔 SUBSCRIBE for conservative news with backbone
