David Frum: Trump's Big Beautiful Bill

Video Description

Leading author, journalist, and thinker David Frum and The Hub’s editor-at-large Sean Speer discuss the economic, fiscal, and political implications of the Trump administration's One Big Beautiful Bill Act which, among other things, renews tax cuts from the first Trump term and increases spending and has received criticism from some Republican lawmakers and others like Elon Musk. They also cover last week's antisemitic attack in Boulder, Colorado, and how these instances of violence should be a wake-up call for Canadian politicians and law enforcement.
