Elon Musk criticized Congress members who campaigned on reducing spending but voted for the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act”

Elon Musk’s scathing July 1, 2025, X post slammed Congress members who campaigned on reducing government spending but voted for the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” a $4 trillion debt ceiling hike that extends Trump’s 2017 tax cuts, adds tax breaks on tips and overtime, boosts military and border funding, and cuts $698 billion from Medicaid and $267 billion from SNAP.

Labeling their actions hypocritical, Musk vowed to ensure these lawmakers lose their 2026 primaries, leveraging his $300 million America PAC to challenge House Freedom Caucus members and other Republicans who backed the bill, which the CBO says will add $2.4 trillion to the $36.2 trillion national debt over a decade.
