WASHINGTON, United States (AFP) — US President Donald Trump will sign into law his flagship tax and spending bill Friday as part of the pomp-laden Independence Day ceremony featuring fireworks and a flypast by the stealth bomber that bombed Iran’s nuclear facility.

Trump announced that he would have a signing ceremony at the White House at 4 p.m. on Friday, and that the pilots who carried out the bombing on Iran were among those who had been invited.

“We have the hottest country anywhere in the world today,” the jubilant president told supporters at a rally in Iowa Thursday where he boasted of a “phenomenal” victory in passing the bill.

“The age of America is upon us. This is a golden age.”

Trump forced through the so-called “One Big Beautiful Bill” despite deep misgivings in the Republican Party — and the vocal opposition of his billionaire former ally, Elon Musk.

It squeezed past a final vote in the House of Representatives 218 to 214 after Republican Speaker Mike Johnson worked through the night to corral the final group of dissenters.

The sprawling mega-bill honors many of Trump’s campaign promises: boosting military spending, funding a mass migrant deportation drive and committing $4.5 trillion to extend his first-term tax relief.

But it is expected to pile an extra $3.4 trillion over a decade onto the US deficit.

At the same time it will shrink the federal food assistance program and force through the largest cuts to the Medicaid health insurance scheme for low-income Americans.

Meanwhile, the president’s wife had told reporters on Thursday that a B-2 bomber, and fighter jets would carry out a flypast for the 4 July event.
