Full Episode
MAGA Mike Johnson, the Republican Speaker of the House, is getting clowned on. He just got devastating news as more MAGA Republican senators in the Senate are saying no way, no how are they supporting the big disastrous bill that MAGA Mike and Donald Trump want to push forward.
But get this, you know who else is also tag-teaming MAGA Mike and Donald Trump and telling them no way, no how with this budget bill? Elon Musk and Ron DeSantis. By the way, you also have the chair of the Republican National Committee, a guy named Michael Whatley, saying that this thing is no bueno as well. Let me take a look as MAGA Mike gets his worst nightmare smacked down.
What the hell are you going to do, MAGA Mike Johnson? So here we have MAGA Republican Senator Rick Scott, who was involved in the biggest Medicaid and Medicare fraud in the history of the United States. That's how he got his money after pleading the fifth dozens and dozens of times in a case against his company. But here he says he ain't voting on the budget bill.
Watch MAGA Republican Senator Rick Scott play this clip.
So, Senator, would you say without any changes at its current composition, would you vote no?
Oh, absolutely. I don't know. This bill doesn't have it. If they brought it to the floor right now, there's not a chance it'll get the 51 votes it needs.
Now, here is leaked audio from the RNC chair saying that the Republicans voted for the largest tax increase in American history with Trump's budget bill. This came from FactPost that clipped it and Hakimian who noted it. Play this clip.
What we saw was the largest tax increase in the American history that the Republicans had voted for. Every single Democrat voted against it.
Here we've got Elon Musk saying, uh-uh, he's not in support of this. Play this clip.
