Oddly, Joni Ernst managed, in one ill-advised throwaway quip, to highlight and undermine the entire MAGA mission. Evoking the Tooth Fairy was simply the cherry on top.

The BIG news is the Musk/ Trump split on the budget. Musk calls the Trump spending bill a "disgusting abomination."

Both are in denial about whether DOGE has cost the Treasury bigly. 6 Nobel Prize-winning economists warned that Trump’s budget bill would gut Medicaid and food stamps, increase debt by over $3 trillion, and fuel inflation and inequality, despite GOP lies that it would boost growth.

Hope that Musk and Trump will beat up each other, causing outright defeat of the Big Beautiful budget.
