CNN Host Calls Out GOP Senator's Absurd Elon Musk Claim: 'That Can't Be True'

CNN Host Calls Out GOP Senator's Absurd Elon Musk Claim: 'That Can't Be True'

Bill Hagerty claimed the billionaire's social media takes led to his office being "inundated with calls."

CNN anchor Dana Bash on Sunday hit back at Sen. Bill Hagerty’s (R-Tenn.) claim that Elon Musk was “the only way we would even know” about the government funding plan after the billionaire trashed the deal on his X platform.

“I think as a senator voting I presume you do your best to read the bills that you’re voting on. I understand it was quite large at the beginning but to say that it was only Elon Musk that made people aware of what was in it, that can’t be true,” she told Hagerty, a member of the Senate Appropriations Committee.

On Wednesday, Musk unleashed a storm of social media posts criticizing a bipartisan deal negotiated by House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) as a possible government shutdown loomed over Washington.

Donald Trump went on to echo Musk’s criticism, effectively killing the bill at the time, before a new version without a key ask from the president-elect ― a raise to the debt ceiling ― eventually passed the House and the Senate.

President Joe Biden later signed the bill to fund the government through March.
