8:22Now PlayingWhen Rep. mike Thompson asked Trump’s economic official to name just one independent expert who says the GOP’s tax bill won’t add to the national debt — the silence was deafening.
In this powerful moment from a congressional hearing, Thompson lays out what every major economist already knows: the so-called “Big Beautiful Bill” is a budgetary disaster, trading healthcare and food aid for working families in exchange for billionaire tax cuts.
📊 Independent studies from CBO, Yale, Penn Wharton, and more confirm:
Trillions added to the debt
16 million may lose healthcare
11 million face nutrition cuts
🎯 But Trump’s official still dodged. Still spun. Still refused to face the truth.
This isn’t just bad math. It’s bad governance — and working people will pay the price.
