Are we watching a public breakup? Yesterday I wrote about Elon Musk's fall from power. Today he is beefing with the president on X, instead of picking up his phone to make a call. Hm! False, this bill was never shown to me even once and was passed in the dead of night so fast that almost no one in Congress could even read it! — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) June 5, 2025
