Welcome to politics by faith. Thank you very much for you here.

0:07.3

So we've got to talk about this Elon Trump battle that's going on. It's going to change

0:11.6

minute to minute. So let's just get caught up here and then we'll bring it to the Bible here.

0:17.0

Where to start? Let's just start here.

0:27.0

Elon Musk doesn't like the big beautiful bill because it doesn't cut enough spending.

0:28.9

And he's right about that.
