Cut the bull****

Sorry for asking you to explain this, but I really want to understand, what it means. I hear it pretty often. I thought, it meant "get to the point/cut to the chase" before, but recently I saw it used differently. So, what does it mean? And is "cut the bull****" a synonym of "cut the c**p"?
Thank you for your time!

Yes, both are crude and somewhat rude ways of saying "Stop telling us lies".
