Musk vows to help unseat Republicans who vote for ‘big beautiful bill'
Elon Musk has pledged to financially support primary challengers against Republican lawmakers who vote for a significant bill backed by Donald Trump.
Musk opposes the legislation, dubbed the "big, beautiful bill," citing concerns over insufficient spending cuts and projections of adding $3.3 trillion to the national debt.
The controversial bill aims to extend 2017 tax cuts, fund a surge in mass deportation measures including 10,000 new ICE agents, and impose work requirements on Medicaid and food stamp programs.
Musk's opposition reignites a past feud with Donald Trump, which previously included personal attacks and allegations related to the "Epstein Files."
Despite Musk's efforts and some Republican dissent, Donald Trump and the Republican leadership are pushing the bill forward, expected to pass via budget reconciliation.
