Elon Musk just dropped a bombshell: he’s stepping down as a top adviser to former U.S. President Donald Trump. In a fiery X post on May 28, the billionaire thanked Trump but slammed a pending spending and tax-cut bill, calling it a “deficit disaster.” 💥
Musk, who styled himself as a government efficiency guru, led the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) since 2017. His rollercoaster tenure saw thousands of federal job cuts, dismantling of agencies like USAID, and eyebrow-raising data access moves. Critics called it chaotic; Musk claimed he was “streamlining” bureaucracy. 📉
The final straw? A clash over Trump’s new bill, which Musk argues will balloon the federal deficit. “Short-term gains, long-term pain,” he tweeted. Analysts say the split highlights growing tensions between tech moguls and traditional politics. 🤖⚖️
