According to Musk, such a bill will further push the country into debt, calling on Americans to call their representatives in both the US House of Representatives and the Senate to reject Trump’s bill.
Billionaire entrepreneur and Tesla CEO Elon Musk has publicly endorsed a call to impeach U.S. President Donald Trump, escalating tensions in their increasingly strained relationship. Tribune Online reports that the rift follows Musk’s exit from the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), a cost-cutting initiative Trump established after his return to office.
After a farewell meeting at the Oval Office, Musk criticized Trump’s new economic proposal — dubbed the ‘Big, Beautiful Bill’ — which includes tax cuts, tighter federal benefit eligibility, and a raised national debt ceiling. “Such a bill will further push the country into debt,” Musk stated, urging citizens to pressure lawmakers to reject it.
Musk’s public opposition marks a sharp turn from his earlier cooperation with the Trump administration. His support for impeachment further underlines the growing divide between the tech mogul and the President, with potential implications for both political and business alliances.
