US EditionTrump's 'Big, Beautiful Bill' Losing Momentum in Senate
- Elon Musk publicly condemned President Trump's 'big, beautiful bill' on Tuesday, urging Republicans to 'KILL the BILL' due to its fiscal impact.
- Musk's opposition stems from the bill's growth of the national debt by $2.4 trillion over a decade as projected by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office.
- The legislation extends expiring tax cuts, increases defense and border funding, and offsets costs by scrapping clean energy credits and cutting Medicaid.
- Musk called the bill a 'disgusting abomination' and highlighted it would raise the debt ceiling by five trillion dollars, while the White House claims it reduces deficits by $1.4 trillion.
- Musk's revolt intensifies GOP divisions ahead of an uncertain legislative outcome, with some Republicans pushing for deeper cuts and others resisting a new spending bill.
