Elon’s on fire, Putin’s threatening strikes, and Trump’s still calling it a “beautiful” bill.
The backlash is building—and the swamp doesn’t know which billionaire to fear more.
Good Morning, it’s Thursday, June 4th, 2025.
Trump’s on the phone with Putin, Musk is nuking the GOP’s credibility, and the budget “win” just lit a fuse inside the conservative base. What’s being called “beautiful” in D.C. looks more like betrayal on the ground. Let’s dig in.

Putin Promises Payback After Ukrainian Drone Strike—And Trump’s Warning Was Crystal Clear
The most important phone call on earth just happened—and peace isn’t coming.
President Trump confirmed Wednesday that he spoke with Russian President Vladimir Putin for over an hour about Ukraine’s latest drone attack on Russian strategic bombers, and what happens next. Spoiler: it’s not good. According to Trump, Putin made it clear that retaliation is coming. “He will have to respond,” Trump wrote, bluntly, on Truth Social.
The hook? Trump also brought up Iran’s nuclear ambitions—and hinted Putin might play peacemaker there. But with war drums pounding across two continents, this wasn’t a détente. It was a warning shot.
Here’s why it matters:
Trump’s message to Putin: Iran will not get the bomb
Putin’s message to Trump: Ukraine crossed the line—payback is next
The media’s message to you? Nowhere to be found
Trump’s post lays it out in no uncertain terms: Ukraine’s drone strike on Russian bombers wasn’t some symbolic gesture—it was a direct hit on nuclear-capable aircraft. And Putin isn’t pretending otherwise. He called the strike an “attack on airfields” and promised a response.
Let’s translate that: retaliation is on the table, and escalation is likely.
Meanwhile, Trump is playing both chessboard and firewall. He emphasized that Iran’s nuclear brinkmanship has hit the clock—and said Putin offered to help bring it to a “rapid conclusion.” That’s diplomatic-speak for: “time’s up.”
The media, as expected, is playing coy or pretending it didn’t happen. No panic, no analysis, no headlines. Why? Because the very idea of Trump engaging in real diplomacy that doesn’t involve airstrikes, appeasement, or giving away pallets of cash goes against every lie they’ve pushed for the past decade.
Here’s the truth: the man they accused of being “Putin’s puppet” just warned the Russian president against escalating one war and enabling another. And he did it while the world watches and waits.
Bottom line: Trump is trying to stop World War III before it starts. Meanwhile, Ukraine is lobbing drones at nuclear bombers, Biden is MIA, and Putin is locked in. What happens next? Depends on who flinches first.
Turns out tariffs can pay for tax cuts—if you’re not too chicken to try them.
According to the Congressional Budget Office, Trump’s 2025 tariffs will slash the federal deficit by $2.8 trillion over ten years. That’s right—while the D.C. class screeches about economic doom and trade wars, the numbers quietly prove the opposite. The very tariffs the media claimed would destroy the economy are now the thing saving it from fiscal collapse.
Here’s the kicker: the CBO says the deficit savings from Trump’s tariffs outpace the projected $2.4 trillion hit from his new round of tax cuts. In other words, the whole Trump economic plan could pay for itself—and then some.
Let’s break this down. A 30% tariff on China, 25% on cars and steel, 10% general import tax, and no more duty-free deals for Chinese junk. That alone brings in $2.5 trillion in new revenue and chops $500 billion off interest payments. That’s real savings. Yes, there’s a minor hit to GDP (0.6% by 2035) and a short-term bump in inflation. But those fade, and the debt reduction sticks.
The establishment line has always been “tariffs bad, free trade good,” but what they never tell you is that their version of “free trade” was selling out our industrial base for cheap plastic garbage and outsourced jobs. Trump’s tariffs flip the script—revenue up, debt down, and manufacturing jobs back on American soil.
The CBO just buried the old economic orthodoxy. Tariffs don’t just work—they’re funding the biggest conservative economic reset in a generation.
It’s too obscene to read aloud in the state house—but Democrats say it’s just fine for your kid’s school library.
That’s the latest stunt from Connecticut lawmakers, who buried language into a 700-page budget bill that shields sexually explicit books from being challenged or removed from school libraries. Republican Rep. Anne Dauphinais tried to expose what was actually inside these books by reading a few lines on the House floor—only to be immediately silenced by Democrats who claimed the content was too vulgar for adults to hear.
You read that right: pornographic material that’s “offensive” to lawmakers is still being defended for 10-year-olds in public schools.
The budget bill includes sweeping restrictions that tie the hands of parents: challengers must jump through bureaucratic hoops, the review process is stacked with school officials, and the books in question must remain accessible during the review. Meanwhile, local control is undermined, and unelected “library specialists” get to play God with what children see and read.
This isn’t about banning books—it’s about calling out the grotesque double standard. If you can’t say it on the House floor, you shouldn’t be defending it in the kids’ section. The GOP nailed it: Democrats chose to “Trojan-horse” this language into a massive budget precisely because they know parents wouldn’t tolerate it if it stood on its own.
Let’s be clear: this is political grooming disguised as “inclusion.” And when parents demand transparency, they’re told to shut up and sit down.
They won’t. Not this time.
Elon Musk just made himself Public Enemy No. 1 to House Republicans—and he did it with a single phrase: “Kill the bill.”
After months of praise from conservatives for exposing D.C. waste through his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), Musk took a blowtorch to Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill,” calling it a debt-hiking disaster. That’s put GOP leadership in full-blown damage control mode.
Speaker Mike Johnson says he was “surprised” by Musk’s public attack. Translation: he’s panicking. This isn’t just any critic—it’s the guy many Republicans were parading around like a folk hero two weeks ago.
What’s especially brutal is that Musk didn’t just critique the bill—he went after the entire process, mocked the spending, and threatened incumbents with voter backlash in November.
The White House and GOP brass are now closing ranks, insisting this is the best they could do. But behind the scenes, some lawmakers are furious Musk torched their work without offering an alternative.
Let’s be honest: Musk pulled the fire alarm on a bill that codifies more debt and zero real reform. And now the same people who cheered DOGE are telling us to trust the system they’ve spent decades breaking.
This isn’t about Elon Musk. It’s about whether anyone in D.C. is actually serious about cutting spending—or if the “big, beautiful” slogans are just a cover for the same bloated government we’ve had for years.
Turns out, when the guy who built rockets tells you the ship’s going down, people listen. Even if Congress doesn’t.
KJP “NO LONGER A DEMOCRAT?”
Former Biden press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre says she’s left the Democratic Party in her upcoming memoir—while teasing “deep disillusionment” with the White House. If this is how the loyal foot soldiers are talking, you know the walls are crumbling.
SEN. RON JOHNSON: KILL THE BILL
Another Senate Republican has joined the anti-bill backlash, slamming Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” for raising debt while ignoring DOGE cuts. “We are mortgaging our future,” Johnson warned.
AI POWER GRAB BURIED IN BILL
The “Big Beautiful Bill” includes a 10-year federal ban on state-level AI regulation. Translation: Silicon Valley wins again—and states get gagged.
JEFFRIES TARGETS ICE AGENTS
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries vows to unmask ICE agents—despite multiple reports of death threats. Even Democrats are privately horrified by the recklessness.
ABC BOOSTS HAMAS FRONT NARRATIVE
ABC News used an antisemitic stabbing to parrot pro-Hamas group messaging about “Islamophobia.” Yes, really. They’re using Jew-hatred to play defense for terrorist sympathizers.

P.S.:
I don’t care how many “wins” they claim—when even Musk is torching the bill they’re selling as salvation, you know something stinks. I’ve got eyes on what comes next. What do you think: is the MAGA base waking up to this?

What seems overstated or misleading.
The claim that Democrats “buried language … that shields sexually explicit books from being challenged or removed” flips the truth. The bill didn’t shield explicit books—it created a process requiring formal review and prevented arbitrary removals based solely on viewpoint or origin.
It did not block parental challenges—parents can still challenge content, but the process now must be governed by official review policies, with protections for librarians and a moratorium on repeated challenges.
Dauphinais did not claim to be exposing hidden explicit content in school libraries—when pressed, she cited national lists like takebacktheclassroom.com, but there is no evidence the specific book she read is available in Connecticut school libraries.
