š³šØElon Musk Sounds Alarm on U.S. Bankruptcy, Slams 'Disgusting' Spending Billā
Elon Musk has issued a fierce warning about the direction of U.S. fiscal policy, declaring he "canāt take it anymore" as he blasted a newly passed Congressional spending bill. Taking to his platform X, Musk called the legislation a ādisgusting abomination,ā accusing Congress of driving the country toward financial collapse.
In a viral post, Musk wrote:
> "I'm sorry, but I just canāt stand it anymore. This massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination."
He continued:
> "Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong. You know it."
The criticism was aimed at the āOne Big Beautiful Bill Act,ā a large-scale tax and spending proposal backed by former President Donald Trump, which recently passed the House and now heads to the Senate.
According to the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, the bill could add $2.5 trillion to the deficit over 10 yearsāor $5.1 trillion including interest and if temporary provisions become permanent.
In a follow-up post, Musk added:
> āIt will massively increase the already gigantic budget deficit to $2.5 trillion (!!!) and burden American citizens with crushingly unsustainable debt. Congress is making America bankrupt.ā
Musk, who previously led the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), announced heās stepping away from his official government role, though he noted DOGEās mission would continue internally.
His statements reignited debate over fiscal responsibility. Senator Rand Paul echoed Muskās concerns, posting:
> āI agree with Elon. Weāve seen the waste. Another $5 trillion in debt is a massive mistake.ā
Meanwhile, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt defended the bill, calling it essential for tax relief and national priorities.
