Washington — President Trump brought pomp and circumstance to his signing of the " big, beautiful bill " on Friday, with an Independence Day ceremony at the White House that included a B-2 bomber flyover.

The White House was hung with red, white and blue bunting for the regular Fourth of July festivities. The United States Marine Band played patriotic marches — and, in a typical Trumpian touch, tunes by 1980s pop icons Chaka Khan and Huey Lewis. The two separate flyovers bookended Trump’s appearance and the band playing the national anthem.

The sweeping bill that will cut taxes and impact funding to social programs was passed in the House by a vote of 218-214 on Thursday, July 3.
