Today, President Trump has responded to Elon Musk’s criticizm of the “Big, Beautiful Bill” by threatening to use DOGE to probe the government contracts and subsidies Musk’s companies receive.
Taking to Truth Social, Trump wrote: “Elon may get more subsidy than any human being in history, by far, and without subsidies, Elon would probably have to close up shop and head back home to South Africa.”
“No more Rocket launches, Satellites, or Electric Car Production, and our Country would save a FORTUNE. Perhaps we should have DOGE take a good, hard, look at this? BIG MONEY TO BE SAVED!!!”
Since the Senate began voting on Trump’s “Big, Beautiful Bill,” Musk, Tesla’s CEO, has been posting and re-posting messages criticizing the tax cut and spending bill.
On Monday, Musk wrote on X:
“Every member of Congress who campaigned on reducing government spending and then immediately voted for the biggest debt increase in history should hang their head in shame! And they will lose their primary next year if it is the last thing I do on this Earth.”
“Anyone who campaigned on the PROMISE of REDUCING SPENDING, but continues to vote on the BIGGEST DEBT ceiling increase in HISTORY will see their face on this poster in the primary next year.”
“If this insane spending bill passes, the America Party will be formed the next day.”
Today, speaking from the White House, Trump revealed that Musk risked losing more than government subsidies and threatened that DOGE will “go back and eat Elon.”
