      BREAKING: Billionaire oligarch Elon Musk stabs Donald Trump in the back in jaw-dropping fashion and announces that he will fund primary challenges to every Republican lawmaker who votes to pass the "big, beautiful bill."

      This just went off like a bomb in MAGA land...

      "Every member of Congress who campaigned on reducing government spending and then immediately voted for the biggest debt increase in history should hang their head in shame! And they will lose their primary next year if it is the last thing I do on this Earth," Musk wrote on Twitter.

      Not only that, but Musk is now threatening to form a new political party if the bills passes.

      "It is obvious with the insane spending of this bill, which increases the debt ceiling by a record FIVE TRILLION DOLLARS that we live in a one-party country – the PORKY PIG PARTY!!" he tweeted. "Time for a new political party that actually cares about the people."

      While Musk is correct that this bill is awful in every sense, his claim that we have a "one-party country" is patently absurd, as evidenced by the fact that Democrats are aggressively opposing this bill.

      "How can you call yourself the Freedom Caucus if you vote for a DEBT SLAVERY bill with the biggest debt ceiling increase in history?" Musk added, tagging Republican Congressmen Andy Harris and Senator Chip Roy.

      "If this insane spending bill passes, the America Party will be formed the next day. Our country needs an alternative to the Democrat-Republican uniparty so that the people actually have a VOICE," he wrote in another post.

      The idea that Musk "actually cares about the people" is laughable at face value, but his attacks on this bill are more than welcome. Even if his motivations are suspect, any and all opposition to this destructive bill is to be encouraged.

      The former close ally of Trump — who accused the president of being in the Jeffrey Epstein files only to later delete the allegation — has been an outspoken critic of the bill for months because it skyrockets the national debt. If passed, the ugly, bloated legislation would wipe out any so-called "savings" stemming from Musk's DOGE cuts.

      While increasing the national debt to pave the way for more tax cuts for the rich and corporations is certainly a betrayal of the American people, it's the other elements of the bill that are the biggest cause for concern for the rest of us. Trump's bill devastates Medicaid with brutal cuts, balloons the Pentagon's budget (which in turn incentivizes more wars), targets migrants with brutal new policies, and slashes access to food stamps. Passing this bill will prove to be a historic mistake for the United States of America.

      Republicans got into bed with Musk thinking that his money would assure their political success. Now he's turning on them, and that very same money could spell their political doom. Good. As the saying goes: "If you lie down with dogs, you will get up with fleas."

              Senate Republicans voted to kick 17 million people off their Medicaid and Affordable Care Act coverage to pay for tax cuts for billionaires.

              More Americans have health care than ever before thanks to the ACA.

              I'm a NO. We can't afford to go back!
