You Don’t Need Me on Here!” — Rep. Tim Burchett Torches CNN Host in On-Air Clash

  • Representative Tim Burchett, a Tennessee Republican, clashed with CNN's Brianna Keilar on July 3, 2025, about the Congressional Budget Office's estimate of Trump's spending bill.
  • Burchett questioned the CBO's impartiality, claiming 85% of its employees lean Democratic, despite having introduced a 2024 resolution to require public reading of CBO estimates.
  • The debate centered on the CBO's projection that Trump's bill would increase the federal deficit by roughly $3 trillion over several years while cutting Medicaid by $1 trillion and raising ICE funding.
  • Burchett expressed disagreement with the CBO's estimate, criticizing it for overlooking economic growth, while Speaker Mike Johnson encouraged GOP members to set aside their individual preferences and support the bill.
  • This exchange highlights ongoing GOP divisions over the bill’s fiscal impact and the trustworthiness of CBO analyses amid pressures to pass legislation backed by President Trump.
