Elon Musk pulled no punches on Tuesday in slamming the Republican Party for passing President Donald Trump’s ‘Big, Beautiful’ budget bill through the House, urging everyone who voted for it to be “fired” next November. Musk made the comments just days after leaving his role in the Trump administration with a friendly send-off in the Oval Office.
While railing against the bill on Tuesday, Musk shared a post from an X user slamming the GOP and replied, “In November next year, we fire all politicians who betrayed the American people.”
Musk made the bombastic comment in reply to a user who wrote:
OK LET ME JUST GET THIS STRAIGHT…
THE GOP ARE OUT THERE:
1) SPENDING MILLIONS ON LUXURY HOTELS IN UKRAINE
2) NOT VOTING ON ANY DOGE CUTS
3) SPENDING 60% OF THEIR TIME ON VACATION
4) NOT CODIFYING EXECUTIVE ORDERS
IS THIS THE “MAJOR REFORM” THE AMERICAN PEOPLE VOTED FOR?!!!
The Tesla billionaire’s call to remove the entire House GOP, except for Reps. Thomas Massie (R-KY) and Warren Davidson (R-OH), came after he called the House bill a “disgusting abomination” earlier in the day.
“I’m sorry, but I just can’t stand it anymore,” Musk wrote. “This massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination. Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong. You know it.”
Massie had vehemently opposed the bill ahead of it passing the House in mid-May, arguing it continued Pelosi-Biden levels of spending while cutting taxes and adding to the deficit.
Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), Massie’s fellow Kentucky libertarian, posted to X on Tuesday, writing, “I want to see the tax cuts made permanent, but I also want to see the $5 trillion in new debt removed from the bill. At least 4 of us in the Senate feel this way.” Musk shared the post and replied to Paul, “Thank you.”
Both Paul and Massie have been targets of Trump’s ire in recent weeks as they have made clear they will not support his sweeping domestic agenda focused on both cutting taxes and increasing spending.
