Chris Cuomo tears into Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill," calling it a "f*** you" to working Americans who are angry about a system rigged for the powerful. He argues the bill exposes everything wrong with American politics: it adds trillions to the debt while cutting Medicaid and SNAP, gives 80% of tax cuts to the wealthy, and hurts the very MAGA voters who supported Trump—especially through cuts to rural hospitals that disproportionately serve his base.
Cuomo condemns Republicans like Lisa Murkowski who called the bill fiscally irresponsible but voted for it anyway, proving party loyalty trumps principle. He argues this regressive bill—which treats tax cuts as "cost-free" through accounting gimmicks—is exactly why populist movements on both left and right are exploding. The bill rewards the top while punishing those struggling most, fueling the extremism and violence we're seeing across the political spectrum. Plus, Dr. Kirk Elliott (Owner and Founder, Kirk Elliott Precious Metals) discusses why the bill's debt implications could force interest rate changes and what it means for household finances.
