Vice President JD Vance said that anyone who opposed President Donald Trump’s «one big, beautiful bill» should face consequences ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. 

The measure includes key provisions that would permanently establish individual and business tax breaks included in Trump’s 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, and incorporates new tax deductions to cut duties on tips and overtime pay.

All Democrats, along with five Republicans in both the House and the Senate, voted against the massive tax and domestic policy bill. However, Trump signed it into law on July 4. 

«Anybody who voted against it, I think they ought to pay a penalty,» Vance said Monday in Canton, Ohio. «Because they voted against all those great things for the people of Akron and the people of Northeastern Ohio.»

«The craziest thing is if you’re a Democrat and you don’t like this legislation, then come and talk to us,» Vance said. «Make some proposed changes. Tell us ‘You know, this provision isn’t so good. We’d like to change it a little bit, and if we change it, then I can get to yes.’ This is the process of government. And these guys didn’t even come to the White House and try to make their concerns known. They didn’t try to make the legislation better. They just attack, attack, attack.» 

Vance then said he believed Democrats don’t care about grocery prices, whether employees receive a raise or not, or if Americans are even employed in the first place. 

«Their obsession in government is letting illegal aliens into this country, and attacking Donald J. Trump,» Vance said. «I don’t think the American people should reward that broken style of politics, and I don’t think they’re going to come November 2026.» 

Vance’s remarks come as he champions the «big, beautiful bill,» with Republicans looking to defend their slim House majority — and potentially pick up a few seats — in the high-stakes 2026 midterm elections.

Vance visited Pennsylvania’s 8th District on July 16, when he praised the measure and offered support for the district’s Republican representative, Rep. Rob Bresnahan, who was elected in 2024 and is in a vulnerable seat. 

Vance is also slated to speak at fundraisers for the Republican National Committee on Tuesday in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, and Big Sky, Montana, Axios first reported. 

Among those who voted against the «big, beautiful bill» in Ohio was Rep. Emilia Sykes, who represents Canton, where Vance spoke on Monday. Sykes is in a vulnerable district as well and barely secured a victory over her opponent in the 2024 election by 2.2 percentage points, according to The New York Times. 

A spokesperson for Vance doubled down on the vice president’s remarks on Monday and pointed to a new Wall Street Journal poll released on Friday that found that 63% of voters hold a negative view towards Democrats, and only 33% hold a favorable one – a new low since 1990.

«The Democrats just hit their lowest approval rating in 35 years, and all they can do is distract voters from the enormous wins the Trump administration is racking up,» a Vance spokesperson said in a statement to Fox News Digital. «Voters are sick of Democrat politicians constantly blowing hot air. Meanwhile, the vice president is visiting contested House districts around the country selling the substantive provisions in the president’s landmark One Big Beautiful Bill.»

A Fox News poll released this month revealed that a majority of voters oppose the «big, beautiful bill.» The poll, which was conducted between July 18 and 21, found that 58% of all registered voters oppose the measure, while 39% approve of it.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., labeled the bill «cruel» during floor remarks that lasted hours on July 3, pointing to Medicaid and SNAP reforms that reports suggest would remove millions of beneficiaries from the programs. 

«What is contemplated in this one big, ugly bill is wrong. It’s dangerous, and it’s cruel, and cruelty should not be either the objective or the outcome of legislation that we consider here in the United States House of Representatives,» Jeffries said.

Leader of right-wing Reform UK Nigel Farage demanded an apology on Tuesday after the head of U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s tech branch accused the conservative Member of Parliament (MP) of «siding» with sexual predators amid clashes over a new online safety law.

In remarks from Reform UK’s headquarters, Farage said accusations levied at him earlier in the day by Technology Secretary Peter Kyle were «disgusting» and «below the belt,» and he called on the labor secretary to retract his comments.  

Farage’s demands came after Kyle said the right-wing party’s insistence that they will repeal the law if they gain a majority and sweep No 10 in the next general election, was akin to «turning the clock back to the time when strange adults…[could] get in touch via messaging apps with children.»

«We have people out there who are extreme pornographers, peddling hate, peddling violence. Nigel Farage is on their side,» Kyle claimed in a Sky News interview earlier on Tuesday.

«Make no mistake about it, if people like Jimmy Savile were alive today, he’ll be perpetrating his crimes online,» Kyle added, in reference to a British media personality who was found to have preyed on «hundreds» of victims and sexually abused children.

«And Nigel Farage is saying that he’s on their side.»

Farage questioned «Just how low can the Labor government sink» amid their flagging poll numbers.

Kyle took to social media to refuse to back off his statements and said, «If you want to overturn the Online Safety Act you are on the side of predators. It is as simple as that.»

The clash over the internet-based laws, which Farage has described as «borderline dystopian,» is just the latest spat unfolding in the U.K. over freedom of speech concerns — a fight that has been ongoing for decades after a 2003 law made it illegal to intentionally «cause annoyance, inconvenience or needless anxiety to another» with online posts, reported The Times.

The report found that nearly 3,400 people were arrested for violating the law in 2016, and criminalizing online posts remains a point of concern for many in the U.K.

One such example is the case of Lee Joseph Dunn, who posted three images and comments on his Facebook page in July 2024 which were deemed to be «grossly offensive» and which «risked worsening community tensions.»

The images reportedly depicted Asian men with knives, and Dunn’s comments apparently suggested they could illegally immigrate to the U.K. and move into British communities. 

Dunn, who took down the posts and apologized, was sentenced to eight weeks for the posts.

In response to the sentence, Deputy Chief Crown Prosecutor for CPS North West Janet Potter said, «This conviction should be a stark reminder to so-called keyboard warriors: online actions have consequences.»

UK MAN ARRESTED FOR PRAYING OUTSIDE ABORTION CLINIC PRAISES VP VANCE FOR BRINGING ATTENTION TO CASE

Concerns over non-internet-based freedom of speech restrictions have also arisen in recent years, as in the 2022 case involving Adam Smith-Connor, who was arrested for quietly praying for his aborted son within a buffer zone of an abortion clinic and forced to pay roughly $12,000 in fines.

Divisions over the Online Safety Act have escalated in recent months after the law, which was first introduced in 2023, put the legal onus on social media companies and online platforms to protect users, particularly children, from criminal and harmful material through algorithm-based policies and age restrictions in March.

However, some have argued the law oversteps and now risks violating freedom of speech by forcing social media companies to «censor» anti-government content.

When President Donald Trump was asked on Monday while sitting next to Starmer whether he was concerned about his own social media platform, Truth Social, Trump jokingly responded, «I only say good things about him and his country.»

Starmer replied to the question and said, «We’re not censoring anyone.»

Failure to comply with the new legal rules could mean any platform or social media company is hit with a fine of up to 10% of a firm’s global turnover or nearly $24 million, whichever is greater.

The U.K.-based fight was renewed this month after new restrictions under the law came into effect that require online platforms to take action to prevent children from accessing content relating to self-harm, dangerous pranks or challenges, suicide, eating disorders, pornography, and violent or bullying-related content.
