Looks like some GOP Senators are bitching about the massive spending in the "One Big Beautiful Bill" that the RINOs in the HOUSE want to push through.
The problem with the One Big Beautiful Bill is that there are TOO MANY RINOS in the House and Senate that actually want the spending!

. . . “Exactly what he has told the media and his conference is what he told us,” Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) told reporters after the meeting. “The fact of the matter is, though, that we’re not just solving this problem. What good is having the majority if we don’t use it to return to pre-pandemic level spending?”
Mike Johnson, according to GOP senators who attended the lunch, cautioned Senate Republicans against making a significant rewrite of the House’s plan. He characterized parts of the plan, including the $1.5 trillion in spending reductions and the inclusion of a debt hike, as key parameters that Republicans will have to live with.
The speaker, Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) said, “basically said that conservatives just have to live with raising the debt ceiling $5 trillion or $4 trillion, which is an historic amount. And I’m one conservative who won’t live with that.”
The bill is expected to face a litany of changes once it gets to the Senate. There’s a group of GOP senators, including Johnson, who want much deeper spending cuts. Senate Majority Leader John Thune said Tuesday “a lot of the issue in the Senate will be … does it have sufficient spending reforms.” . . .
