Trump's Big Beautiful Bill Will BANKRUPT America
The same Republicans who ran on the promise to cut government waste and abuse are advancing a Trump-backed, pork-filled omnibus bill that will almost double the national debt and doesn’t make any meaningful spending cuts at all. That's why Elon Musk just condemned it as the "disgusting abomination" it is. If Kamala had been elected and she supported this exact "Big Beautiful Bill," every Republican would condemn it. But because the people who support it have little Rs in front of their names instead of little Ds, we're all required to pretend it's somehow wonderful.

Today on The Conservative Rebel, the same Republicans who ran on the promise to cut government waste and abuse are advancing a Trump-backed, pork-filled omnibus bill that will almost double the national debt and doesn't make any meaningful spending cuts at all. If Kamala Harris had been elected and she supported this exact bill, every Republican would be condemning it as an abomination. But because the people who wrote it have little r's in front of their names instead of little We're all supposed to pretend it's a great and wonderful thing. Meanwhile, former head of Doge Elon Musk has just condemned this bill and everyone who supports it in no uncertain terms. He is brimming with righteous fury because Republicans have thanked him for all the incredible sacrifices he's tried to make to save our country from bankruptcy by spitting in his face and stabbing him in the back. We'll talk about all of it until today's can't miss episode of the Conservative Rebel. Unless you've been living in a cave in some remote South American jungle for the past few weeks, you've probably heard about the Trump-backed Big Beautiful Bill quote-unquote that's been advancing through Congress. And unless you've gotten all your news from Fox and other mainstream media outlets for the past few weeks, which is the same thing as living in a South American cave, you probably haven't heard that this Big beautiful bill would almost double our national debt from$37 trillion to$57 trillion in just 10 years. That's trillion with a T. 57 followed by 13. Count them. 13 zeros. And this... isn't some wild speculation by the opponents of the bill that it will raise the national debt by$20 trillion. This is according to the people who support it. They freely admit that this bill will do this. And on top of it all, the bill increases the budget deficit to$2.5 trillion. And yet, every single Republican in the House jumped on the bandwagon and voted for it, except for Warren Davidson of Ohio and Thomas Massey of Kentucky. That's right, just two Republicans had the guts to stand up to this in the House. For some perspective, our current national debt of$37 trillion is a number most of us can't even begin to fathom. It's more than the entire economies of Great Britain, Japan, China, and Germany combined. With$37 trillion worth of dollar bills laid end-to-end, you could reach the moon and back again more than 7,000 times and circle the planet more than 136,000 times. 136,000. Paying off the interest on this monstrosity is the single largest expenditure of the federal government And still, the debt expands at a rate of about$1 trillion every hundred days as of 2024, because the politicians in both the Democrat and Republican parties continue to spend money like drunken sailors, not caring the slightest bit about the deep and irreparable harm their unfathomable stupidity and irresponsibility does to your life. And that it does to the life of your loved ones and to the country as a whole. All that matters is that they continue to profit from it. And this debt has to be paid by someone at some point, like all debts. And that someone, of course, is you. You and other taxpayers, most of whom have no idea what the heck is going on, are on the hook for all of it, as well as your descendants who get the unbearable yoke of this insane debt passed down to them by generations of complacent, irresponsible, uninformed Americans who demanded that the government fund pet social programs and stupid overseas wars that are none of our business without ever thinking about the consequences these programs and handouts and wars would have. Personally, I am quite upset that a 16 year old such as myself who strongly opposes all of these socialist and imperialist schemes will not only be forced to foot the bill for the schemes that our government is currently funding, but also for a bunch of the ones that we funded in the past that we still haven't paid off because they cost so much. And if you pay taxes, guess what your share of this mess is?$240,000. If you're married and both you and your wife or both you and your husband pay taxes, your family's share would be about double that, or$480,000, almost half a million. Who among us can spare that kind of money? I don't know anyone. But almost no one seems to notice, much less care about, this highly preventable, easily foreseeable, slow-motion collapse of the United States government and economy because the political class benefits from it, so they don't bother to share facts like this with you. Most people never think about the fact that one of the single greatest perils America has ever faced is this unprecedented expansion of spending and the debt people do not realize the gravity of this And yet, instead of doing anything to avert this catastrophe, this impending doom, this big beautiful bill makes everything worse by increasing the debt, increasing the deficits, and having no meaningful reductions in spending. In fact, those doge cuts everyone was celebrating just a few months ago aren't even in it, and they're not even going to be voted on separately because the House Republicans refused to even put these incredibly modest savings up for a vote. Instead, this cycle of endless spending will continue until we either finally get someone in office who is willing to ignore the shrieks of bureaucrats and leftists and neocons and go scorched earth and ruthlessly slash spending and painfully slash spending, or until our country collapses and our government goes bankrupt. But let's not let small and unimportant and meaningless facts like these distract us from what truly matters. Let's not let the fact that our country is going to collapse like the Roman Empire get in the way of our support for this bill. The important thing to remember is that the people who support this bill have little letter R's in front of their names instead of little letter D's. Therefore, it must be good. R good, D bad, end of story, never forget that. And, more importantly even than that, of course, Trump supports it. Therefore, it must be good. Because anything Trump supports is obviously good. He can never, ever be wrong about anything, as everyone knows. Sure, if Kamala had become president, God forbid, and supported a bill that increased the national debt by$20 trillion, every Republican in the country would be condemning it. Lindsey Graham and Tom Cotton and Dan Crenshaw and the usual suspects would be on Fox News, slamming it as stupid and irresponsible, and all the boomers eagerly gobbling it all up in their living rooms, eyes glued to the screen, would be waving their pom-poms and getting all fired up about it. But because Trump supports increasing the national debt by$20 trillion, not only is this automatically a great idea, but anyone who dares to breathe a word of protest about it is a traitorous rhino backstabber who deserves to be booted out of Congress and probably deported to Antarctica for good measure. And by anyone, of course, I mean Warren Davidson and Thomas Massey in the House and, of course, Rand Paul in the Senate. Now, since the last time I had to defend Massey from Trump on this program a few months ago, Trump has lashed out at him once again and called for him Again, because he voted against this pork-filled omnibus bill. Now that it's passed the House and is in the Senate, fortunately, it looks like there's enough Republicans who oppose it in the Senate. that it might not pass without revisions. But anyway, Trump has vented his wrath at Rand Paul, who is one of the only principled Republicans in the Senate who consistently votes against these schemes, no matter what party supports it, as anyone with a moral compass should do and has a duty to do. Just recently, Trump went on Truth Social and posted,"...Rand Paul has very little understanding of the Big Beautiful Bill, especially the tremendous growth that is coming. He loves voting no on everything. He thinks it's good politics, but it's not. The BBB is a big winner." And he followed up by saying, Rand votes no on everything, but never has any practical or constructive ideas. His ideas are actually crazy, losers. The people of Kentucky can't stand him. This is a big growth bill. Yes, it is a big growth bill, if by big growth you mean big growth of debt and deficits and bureaucracy. And that's precisely the problem. It grows the government when we should be taking a chainsaw to it and lopping off limbs like a madman, like Javier Millet, the president of Argentina. That's what we should be doing here, but we're not, because we have this stupid corrupt two-party system where one party promises to cut spending but always ends up increasing it. This is the cycle we have been locked in for decades. Anyway, for weeks, so-called conservative influencers on X and other places have formed an outrage mob led by Trump and condemned Massey and Paul and everyone who opposes this insane bill as traitors to the MAGA agenda. They're not even pretending to be upset that congressional Republicans have spat in the face of voters who elected them on the promise to reduce government waste by refusing to put even the minuscule doge cuts up for a vote. Instead, all of their fury is redirected by talking heads and alleged conservative influencers and by neoconservative media corporations like Fox News away from the people they should be angry at and towards the few men of principle who actually have their best interests at heart. The people who want to bankrupt the country are not the problem. The people who dare to stand in the way of the bankruptcy of the country, they are the problem. The people who oppose this madness, they are the issue. But there's been a highly ironic and painfully hilarious development that has left these people absolutely stunned. Elon Musk, who, as you know, just stepped down from Doge, has released a condemnation of the Big Beautiful Bill and everyone who supported it. In what Congressman Warren Davidson, who is one of the guys who voted against it, called the Big Beautiful Tweet, Elon Musk wrote this, quote, quote, This massive, outrageous, pork-filled congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination. Shame on those who voted for it. You know you did wrong. You know it. But it gets even better than that. In response to one user who was furious that Republicans supported this bill and refused to vote for the Doge cuts, Elon Musk said this. In November next year, we fire all politicians who betrayed the American people. Which implies Elon Musk may be funding primary challenges to loser Republicans. We can only hope. We have been needing this for decades. But anyway, not only is Elon Musk condemning the bill the mob has been supporting, he is making potential primary threats to the people who supported it. My oh my, how the tables have turned. I wish I could see the expressions on the faces of all the people who have spent the past few weeks shrieking at Thomas Massey and Rand Paul and calling them traitorous rhinos for not wanting to bankrupt the country. when they learned Elon is against their big beautiful bill too. I wish I could behold the glorious sight of these people twisting themselves into pretzel shapes, because we all know they liked Elon and at least pretended to like Doge, but as Tom Woods pointed out, I guess you have another guy you're suddenly supposed to hate. So will these people come out and condemn Elon Musk as an evil backstabbing rhino who is standing against the will of the people? Will they call him a grandstander and a loser and a rhino and all other kinds of names? Will these people continue to shamelessly demonstrate themselves to be raving hypocrites? Or will they finally learn their lesson and shut up and take their medicine? It will be interesting to see how this unfolds. But all of that aside, I want you to try to appreciate for a second how absolutely furious Elon Musk must feel about All of this. toward himself from the left, taking death threats, having his car dealerships vandalized and firebombed, and his stock values tanking because of all of it. Here he is, his name being dragged through the mud and slandered as some elitist tyrant who is trying to subvert the U.S. government, a traitor to his class, a liberal tech mogul who sacrifices luxury and comfort and approval and reputation in order to work tirelessly for months, tirelessly for months, analyzing government data and trying to find waste and abuse to cut. Why? Because he cares deeply about our country and about the American people. How do they thank him? By spitting in his face and destroying the fruits of months of drudgery and toil. All of it was for nothing. He tried his best. He tried to warn us, but no one would listen to him. Instead, they take a flamethrower to everything he has spent months working so hard to accomplish. The U.S. government is a flaming gasoline truck driving at 100 miles per hour toward the edge of a cliff, and Elon tried to put on the brakes, but it was all for nothing. Imagine how righteously furious at that he must be. And you and every other American should feel that exact same fury with every fiber of your being. With the election of Donald Trump, we were given this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, this precious golden window given to us by the providence of God to save this country. And what do we do with it? We throw it away. We throw it away. We abandon it. We do nothing with it. We need to face the facts here. Trump will not be in power forever. Republicans will not be in power forever. If the Democrats win in the midterms, we all know they'll instantly impeach him. And that's not even getting as far as the 2028 election. One day, Republicans will lose power again, and the far-left lunatic Marxist freaks will regain control of our country. I'm sorry, that's just the truth, and I don't care if you don't want to hear it. This is a reality we just have to accept, and Republicans need to start acting accordingly. They cry about government waste when they run for election like a child crying because he burned his hand on a stovetop. And yet when they win, what do they do? They keep their hand on the stove. In fact, they press it down Sure, they keep crying and wailing and shrieking about the burn, but they refuse to do anything to solve the problem because they're a bunch of pathetic, castrated weaklings who have been backed into a corner with their tail behind their legs, wimping like the pathetic cowards they are. The solution to this problem is not easy, but it is simple. If you don't want to get burned, take your hand off the stove. That's what this is like. Yet we have all these Republicans who say, oh, this is such a difficult problem. How do we fix this? How do we solve this? How do we cut spending? Well, I'm not an expert or anything like you geniuses, but you could always, I don't know, stop lighting money on fire. It's a radical proposition, I know, but you could always try that. It's worked before. It's worth a try, wouldn't you say? But they won't try it. They will never try it. Why? Because cutting government spending is going to hurt. In fact, it's going to be agonizing. It is going to be an excruciating process that will be comfortable to no one. The toilets our congressmen flush the most of their gut bombs of your tax dollars down are the toilets of defense spending, social security, and the welfare state. If you want to solve this problem, you are going to have to make dramatic cuts to the Pentagon, to Social Security, and to the welfare state. There is just no way around it. You are going to have to do things like bring the troops home from our several hundred military bases we have around the world. You're going to have to do things like cut off Zelensky's and Netanyahu's and other foreign governments' money supply and stop getting into stupid wars with everyone. You're going to have to phase out social security and kick a lot of people off of welfare. A lot of people. Implement drug tests, work requirements, privatize as much of it as you can. Even that probably won't be enough. But we have to do it. We have to endure the pain because our country simply dies if we don't. Big government is a drug that Americans are addicted to, and if you stop injecting the drug into their veins, there will be withdrawal symptoms. The withdrawal symptoms will be hideous, and no one will want to endure them. But like any other drug, big government will eventually kill you if you don't stop, and probably sooner rather than later. We are overdosing on big government right now, and we have to stop. We have to get clean. But what do I know compared to the wisdom of our congressmen? I'm just some stupid 16-year-old. probably shouldn't listen to me.
