Highlights:

“The CBO’s projections claim that the Bill will increase the deficit by $2.4 trillion over 10 years, whereas the OMB projects that the Bill will lower the deficit by $1.4 trillion.”
“Musk calls the bill an abomination and actively calls for its defeat… He’s even threatening to support primary challengers against anyone who votes for it.”
“The Republican base, by and large, likes the bill, and most particularly, Trump’s base really likes the bill.”
“Voting against this bill will be political suicide, both in terms of Trump’s wrath against you and the voters’ wrath after they see their tax bill next April.”

0:00.0	The liberal globalist order is on its brink and awakening a new conservative age.
0:06.4	I'm Dr. Steve Turley.
0:08.1	Join me every day as we discover answers to today's toughest challenges and explore the revitalization of conservative civilization.
0:17.9	This is Turley Talks.
0:21.1	How mad do you think President Trump is going to be when he finds out that Elon Musk said,
0:25.3	I'm sorry, but I just can't stand it anymore. This massive outrageous port-filled congressional
0:29.7	spending bill is a disgusting abomination. Shame on those who voted for it. You know you did

1:42.5	over the next 10 years, whereas the OMB projects that the bill
1:47.6	will actually lower the deficit by $1.4 trillion over the next 10 years. So the deficit hawks
