Musk derides Trump’s bill, saying it will ‘massively increase the already gigantic’ deficit.
Elon Musk lashed out on Tuesday against the far-reaching Republican bill intended to enact President Trump’s domestic policy agenda, posting on X that it was a “disgusting abomination” and telling House members who voted for it: “You know you did wrong.”
The tech billionaire’s criticism of the bill, one of Mr. Trump’s top priorities, was another indication of a widening rift between Mr. Musk and the president. Mr. Musk — who has left his governmental role leading the Department of Government Efficiency — largely presented a united front with the Trump administration until recently.
Last month, Mr. Musk started publicly criticizing Mr. Trump’s bill, saying in an interview with CBS News’s “Sunday Morning” that he was disappointed in the legislation’s size and impact on the deficit.
On Tuesday, Mr. Musk ramped up his criticism, writing on X: “I’m sorry, but I just can’t stand it anymore.” He called the bill “massive, outrageous, pork-filled.” In follow-up posts, he said, “It will massively increase the already gigantic budget deficit” and “Congress is making America bankrupt.”

Official admits 'glorious' $45M parade will see 'Happy Birthday' sung to Trump
U.S. Chief of Protocol Monica Crowley revealed that President Donald Trump would be honored by the crowd singing "Happy Birthday" at a military parade that is expected to cost up to $45 million.
During a Tuesday interview on the War Room podcast, MAGA influencer Steve Bannon noted that Trump had been criticized for staging a parade on his birthday.
"Obviously, the mainstream media is all over — this is Trump's parade," Bannon said. "The thing that this is much broader, right?"
"Yes, it's a celebration of the [Army's] 250th anniversary," Crowley replied. "And June 14th, this is a special day. Of course, it's the president's birthday. So I'm sure the crowd will break out into a 'Happy Birthday' song. Providential. And it's also Flag Day, Steve. So meant to be. Hands of God. Hands of God for sure."
"But they are organizing with the Department of Defense, the Interior Department, the Park Service," she added, "all of the elements that we need to carry off a huge event like this and to do it safely for all of our attendees, including the president, but everybody who comes understand that this will be a safe and glorious event."
