19 分钟It's Wednesday, July 2nd, I'm Jane Coaston, and this is What a Day,
the show that is not going to spend $250 to smell like President Donald Trump.
His new fragrance, called Victory 4547, is supposed to represent, quote, winning.
Because nothing says winning like being the president of the United States and still feeling the need to sell cologne.
On today's show,
Elon Musk and Trump's bromance breakup continues and a new study finds that shuddering USAID will result in the deaths of millions of people around the world.
Good work, Doge.
But let's talk about the big Republican spending bill debacle disaster adventure.
That's what we're calling it.
On Tuesday morning,
the Senate passed President Trump's spending bill after Vice President J.D.
Vance arrived to break a 50-50 tie.
And it's probably not a great sign for what this bill will actually do to America that this is how Alaska Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski responded to a question about voting for it.
I advocated for my state's interests.
I will continue to do that and I will make no excuses for doing that.
Do I like this bill?
No. Because I try to take care of Alaska's interests.
But I know, I know that in many parts of the country,
there are Americans that are not going to be advantaged by this bill.
I don't like that.
