Tech billionaire Elon Musk donated $5 million to the main super PAC affiliated with President Trump in late June despite an ongoing public feud, according to recent campaign finance filings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Musk made the donation to MAGA Inc. on June 27 \u2014 the same day he also donated $5 million each to the Senate Leadership Fund and Congressional Leadership Fund, the main super PACs dedicated to boosting Senate and House Republicans.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The donations appear to have come during a lull in the Tesla CEO\u2019s spat with Trump. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
After spending at least $250 million to boost Trump\u2019s 2024 White House campaign, Musk joined the administration as head of the Department of Government Efficiency. Following a controversial four-month stint, the tech mogul announced his plans to step away in late May. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The two men appeared to hint at peace in mid-June, with Trump saying he had \u201cno hard feelings\u201d and Musk suggesting he \u201cwent too far.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, just one day after his donations to the president and congressional Republicans in late June, Musk was once again lambasting Trump\u2019s tax and spending bill and reigniting the feud. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The tech billionaire also followed through on threats to launch a new third political party called the \u201cAmerica Party,\u201d though he has done little since to establish it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Last month, President Trump also famously threatened to deport the South African billionaire by using DOGE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe\u2019ll have to take a look,\u201d Trump said when asked about the deportation. \u201cWe might have to put DOGE on Elon. You know what DOGE is? DOGE is the monster that might have to go back and eat Elon! Wouldn\u2019t that be terrible?\u201d
