Elon Musk Goes To War Against Big Beautiful Bill: 'KILL the BILL'
HuffPost
Musk has gone beyond merely calling the bill a "disgusting abomination" and signaled he will actively undermine it.
WASHINGTON ― Former White House advisor Elon Musk escalated his attacks on the big Republican bill cutting taxes and Medicaid, urging Americans to call their lawmakers to kill the bill.
“Call your Senator, Call your Congressman, Bankrupting America is NOT ok! KILL the BILL,” Musk wrote on his social media platform Wednesday.
The legislation is supposed to encompass the entirety of President Donald Trump’s domestic policy agenda for his second term, so Musk’s aggressive opposition, just one week after leaving his job as a senior adviser to the president, is striking.
The billionaire entrepreneur ramped up his attacks on the legislation starting Tuesday, saying Republicans should be ashamed to vote for it. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) said he was blindsided by Musk’s change of tone after they’d had a cordial conversation on Monday.
“I called Elon last night and he didn’t answer, but I hope to talk to him today,” Johnson said, adding that he’s spoken to the president about the situation.
