Former DOGE head\u00a0Elon Musk\u00a0called President Trump\u2019s \u201cbig, beautiful\u201d tax and spending package a \u201cdisgusting abomination,\u201d ramping up his criticism as the Senate is trying to pass the measure and get it signed into law by July 4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cShame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong. You know it,\u201d said Musk, in comments on his X social-media platform. Musk, who left the administration last week, called the package a \u201cmassive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Musk\u2019s comments are his latest sharp words about the package, which includes tax cuts as well as reductions to spending on Medicaid and food assistance. Last month he gave new fuel to GOP critics<\/a> of the Republicans\u2019 multitrillion-dollar agenda, saying that the current measure failed to reduce the federal deficit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
