The world’s richest man’s fury over what many consider yet another GOP betrayal had been building up for several weeks, highlighted by four key factors.
As The Gateway Pundit’s Jordan Conradson reported, Elon Musk went scorched earth on President Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill that is being negotiated in the Senate after passing the House last month by a razor-thin margin.
“I’m sorry, but I just can’t stand it anymore,” Musk wrote. “This massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination.”
“Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong,” he added. “You know it.”

As Conradson notes, Musk previously expressed disappointment with the bill, arguing that it “undermines the work” of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which he oversaw until the end of his tenure as a special government employee last week.
Musk later threatened to “fire the politicians who betrayed the American people” on the bill and refused to codify DOGE cuts.

Despite Musk’s understandable anger, many in the GOP were taken aback by the harshness of his critique. After all, previous rifts had faded quickly.
According to the New York Post and Axios, Musk’s tirade was triggered by four factors, one of which would have a direct impact on his bottom line.
• House Republicans removing electric vehicle tax credits that were part of Joe Biden’s Green New Scam. Musk’s Tesla received billions of taxpayer dollars from the bill.
• He was peeved that the Trump White House would not allow him to remain a special government employee beyond the 130-day time limit set by statute.
• The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) refused to use his Starlink satellite system to help run the nation’s air traffic control. The Trump administration cited a potential conflict of interest and technological reasons for blocking the proposal,
• Trump withdrawing the nomination of Musk’s ally Jared Isaacman to lead NASA. As TGP’s Kristinn Taylor reported, Trump had deep concerns over Isaacman’s “prior associations,” likely referring to Isaacman’s past donations to Democrats.
Hopefully, Musk and the Trump Administration can patch things up shortly. Radical leftists are the only people winning right now as this feud remains ongoing.
