Is this MAGA Republican budget bill blowing up already? They're calling it a big, beautiful bill, but it looks like a big, beautiful disaster.
MAGA Republican Senator Ron Johnson from Wisconsin was on right-wing propaganda media today and he was sending a message saying, we don't know what the hell these MAGAs are doing in the House of Representatives, but we ain't supporting what they're doing in the Senate. That was an interesting note. Let's play this clip. Thank you.
arguing over additional tax provisions and getting down to a reasonable pre-pandemic spending level. But that's not the path we chose. So I think the sooner we acknowledge the fact that this current effort is doomed to fail. I'm sorry. I've got to disagree with the president on this. It's doomed to fail.

Like, can I look at it? And Kash Patel's like, it's not ready.
It just reminds me of the kid who just doesn't does his homework. who doesn't do his homework at the most basic level. It's just like competence here. Watch this. I have a timeline on that.
It was due last week by law.
