Musk Slams Trump's Spending Bill as 'Abomination,' White House Defends

The White House defended President Trump's controversial "One Big Beautiful Bill" after Tesla CEO Elon Musk publicly denounced it as a "disgusting abomination." Musk's tweet, which garnered millions of views, criticized the bill's substantial increase to the national debt and its cuts to social programs. The bill, which extends tax cuts from Trump's first term, allocates more funding to border security and the military. However, it reduces funding for crucial programs like Medicaid and SNAP. A White House spokesperson responded to Musk's criticism, stating, "This is one big, beautiful bill, and he's sticking to it." This statement highlights the administration's unwavering commitment to the bill despite the significant opposition.
