Full Episode
This is an unmitigated disaster for MAGA Mike Johnson, folks, and we've been predicting it here at the Midas Touch Network. Donald Trump's, quote, big, beautiful budget, end quote, was just voted down by members of the GOP in the Budget Committee. Yep, the GOP members shot down Trump's budget. They said it was going to increase the deficit by trillions of dollars. And get this,
There is even more opposition to Trump's bill in the Senate than in the House. But this bill has been derailed in the Budget Committee. MAGA Mike Johnson yesterday was saying, nope, it's on track. Things are going great. Here on the Midas Touch Network, we were saying, nope. Remember what we reported earlier this morning as well?
We said that bill ain't going to make it out of the Budget Committee. And here's the moment where the House Budget Committee failed to advance the GOP tax and spending bill. 16 to 21. There were four no votes. Then there was a fifth vote that was made by someone in order to reintroduce this, perhaps in the future. Let me show you what went down. Let's play the clip.
The clerk shall report.
Mr. Chair, on the vote, there were 16 ayes and 21 noes.
Well, the no's have it. The committee stands in recess, subject to the call of the chair. I want to thank everybody for their time and patience, and Godspeed and safe travels.
So here's what was going down in real time. You had MAGA Republican Congress member Norman, a no vote. MAGA Republican Congress member Chip Roy, a no vote. MAGA Republican Congress member Brechin, a no vote. MAGA Republican Congress member Clyde, a no vote. And then MAGA Republican Congress member Lloyd Smucker changed his vote to a no vote. likely in order to try to, I guess, bring this back up.
But the House budget's vote on that reconciliation bill has failed. MAGA Mike humiliated by MAGA Republicans, a major Friday disaster for Donald Trump. Now, we got wind of this as well when we saw Ralph Norman, MAGA Republican, and others kind of walking with a smile on their face earlier today. They kind of indicated what was about to go down.
We thought this was going to happen, but MAGA Mike was lying and saying it wasn't. Here's what MAGA Republican Ralph Norman was doing earlier in the day when he was walking there and he's like, I'm not going to tell you what I'm going to do. Here, play this clip.
