Office of Management and Budget Director Russ Vought took to social media platform X in order to set the record straight about all of the false claims being made about the administration’s “big, beautiful bill.”
Vought has been on the warpath over the last week, hammering critics left and right with the hammer of truth, providing the ultimate kryptonite for false narratives: facts.
In his post, Vought said that the OMB reviewed the new CBO score for the piece of legislation and revealed it reduces deficits by $1.4 trillion over a decade, so long as you adjust for the CBO not using a realistic currency baseline.
“It includes $1.7 trillion in mandatory savings, the most in history. If you care about deficits and debt, this bill dramatically improves the fiscal picture,” the director of OMB said.

This isn’t the first defense of the bill Vought has given this week. On Sunday, he gave significant pushback on the notion that this package would end up increasing the deficit.
During an interview with Dana Bash on her CNN program “State of the Union,” Vought said, “This bill doesn’t increase the deficit or hurt the debt.”
His comment was in response to billionaire Tesla CEO Elon Musk giving the legislation some weighty criticism.
“In fact, it lowers it by $1.4 trillion,” he told Bash.
Musk recently gave an interview with “CBS Sunday Morning” where he said he “was … disappointed to see the massive spending bill, frankly, which increases the budget deficit … and it undermines the work that the [Department of Government Efficiency] team is doing.”
The “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” was passed in the House late last month after a series of negotiations and changes to the legislation’s text that played a huge roll in securing GOP support for it.
“This is a $1.4 trillion, over 10 years, deficit reduction. It’s $1.6 trillion in mandatory savings,” Vought told Bash during their interview on Sunday. “Obviously, we have a little bit of spending in there as well for border and defense, but that is the biggest mandatory savings package cut that we have seen since the 1970s — 1997.”
Musk also stated during his interview with CBS that he was convinced a “bill can be big, or it could be beautiful,” however, he wasn’t sure “if it could be both.” He then noted that this was simply his “personal opinion,” according to The Hill.
Reactions to Vought’s post on X were mixed. One user said there’s too much confusion about the legislation from both sides, suggesting President Donald Trump hold a press conference to explain things.
“Wow, there’s so much shade on this. It’s hard to sort out what’s true and what’s not. I’m hearing both sides from very reputable accounts. [President Trump] you may need to do a press conference. This is going to be your legacy. Do you agree with everything in the bill or don’t you?” the user said.
