Elon Musk: 'Disappointed' in GOP's 'Big, Beautiful Bill'

Breitbart News
Overview
Elon Musk announced his departure from the Trump administration, citing legal limits on his role as a Special Government Employee. He criticized the 'One Big Beautiful Bill', claiming it would increase the national debt by $3.8 trillion and undermine the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which he led. Musk's exit reflects a growing rift with Trump, especially after he spent $288 million supporting Republican candidates. His tenure was marked by significant layoffs and controversies over spending cuts, with lawsuits challenging DOGE's authority. Despite claims of saving $175 billion, Musk's efforts fell short of his initial $2 trillion target.
