Trump To DOGE Musk?
President Trump Sounds the Alarm on Musk’s Billions in Green Tax Breaks
President Donald Trump isn’t mincing words. In a fiery post on Truth Social, the 45th president warned that Elon Musk — once an ally — could soon come under review by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) for raking in billions through taxpayer-funded environmental subsidies.
“Elon may get more subsidy than any human in history,” Trump wrote. “Without those handouts, he’d be packing his bags back to South Africa.”
The early-morning post came after Musk blasted the latest Trump-backed tax and spending package currently advancing in the U.S. Senate. The legislation eliminates many of the electric vehicle and renewable energy incentives that Musk’s empire, including Tesla and SpaceX, has relied on for years.
