Billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk, whom US President Donald Trump appointed head of the Department of State Efficiency (DOGE) at the beginning of his stay in the White House, and then sharply limited his powers, criticized his former boss, saying he was disappointed with the "single, big, beautiful bill" of the American leader on reducing government spending..
"I was disappointed to see a bill on large-scale spending, which, frankly, increases the budget deficit, and not it reduces it and undermines the work done by the DOGE team," Musk said in an interview with CBS News.
The TV channel published an excerpt from the interview, the full version will be aired on June 1, TASS reports.
The document, which Trump calls a "single, large, beautiful bill," provides for a significant reduction in taxes and government spending in a number of industries. At the same time, the bill assumes an increase in spending in the defense sector, in particular on the creation of the Golden Dome missile defense system ("Golden Dome"). In addition, it includes measures to tighten border control, and also provides for an increase in spending in this area.
On May 22, the lower house of the US Congress approved the bill. After approval by the upper house of the legislature, the document will be submitted to the President for signature.
In April, Musk announced that from May he would reduce his participation in the work of the department he oversees to improve the efficiency of the American government (DOGE).
