Elon Musk Parts Ways with Trump After $250 Million Support, Slams 'Big Beautiful' Bill

International News: Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has announced formally from the administration of US President Donald Trump. Musk on Wednesday shared this information through a post on the social media forum X (formerly Twitter). Recently, Musk's open criticism was revealed about Trump's controversial 'Big Beautiful' tax bill, after which the news of differences between the two started spreading rapidly.

Musk told Trump thanks, expressed disagreement

Elon Musk wrote in his post, "My scheduled period as a special government employee is now over. I want to thank President Donald Trump for giving an opportunity to cut futile expenses. The DOGE mission will be stronger over time, as it has become a symbol of proficiency throughout the government machinery."

DOGE means "Department of Government Efficiency" (Department of Government Efficiency) and is the name of the unit that Trump founded to cut government expenses and was given the command to Musk.

Trump's candidature was given heavy support

During the presidential election campaign, there was a close relationship between Musk and Trump. Musk not only supported Trump's policies but also made an economic contribution of $250 million (about 25 million dollars) to strengthen his election campaign. As a result, Musk was given an important role in the Trump administration.

Strict comment on 'Big Beautiful Bill'

In a recently aired CBS interview, Elon Musk hit Trump's famous 'Big Beautiful' tax bill. He said in clear terms that this bill is highly expensive and is completely opposite to the original objective of government efficiency, for which he started work with the administration. According to Musk, this policy proposal not only enhances the federal deficit but also promotes unnecessary waste of public resources.

Musk taunted, "Any bill can be either big or beautiful, but I do not think both qualities may be contained in the same proposal."

The debate continues on the bill

This tax bill was passed in the House of Representatives on Tuesday, which provides for tax cuts and promotes strict immigration policies. Now this bill is pending for debate in the Senate. Meanwhile, despite the criticism of Musk, no official reaction has been revealed by the White House or Trump.

Farewell to administration, but dog mission will continue

The Government Efficiency Department, the DOGE, was established in the early days of the Trump administration, and Musk was assigned to the leadership. The goal of this department was to cut government spending and ensure the prudent use of resources. Now, even though Musk may have separated from the administration, he has indicated that he will continue to increase the conceptual heritage of DOGE at a private level even further.
