The stage of harmony and solidarity between tech mogul Elon Musk and President Donald Trump seems to be going through a rough patch, after the billionaire resigned from the leadership of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), and made strong comments against government decisions.
During an exclusive interview with CBS Sunday Morning, the Tesla owner did not hide his disappointment at what he called the high cost of the political bill, which last week was passed by Republicans in the House of Representatives.

“I was disappointed to see the huge spending bill, frankly, that increases the budget deficit, not just reduces it, and undermines the work that the DOGE team is doing,” Musk said in an interview with ‘CBS Sunday Morning’.

The disagreement between Elon Musk and Donald Trump
In defending DOGE‘s team, Musk is expressing his disagreement with Trump over a bill that seeks to extend the 2017 tax cuts, and among other things, also seeks to reduce tax credits for clean energy, boost spending on border security and impose work requirements for Medicaid.
“I think a bill can be big or it can be beautiful, but I don’t know if it can be both. That’s my personal opinion,” Musk told CBS News of the legislation that still needs to be approved by the Senate, in a statement in which the tycoon refers to the name of the tax provisions package: “One Big Beautiful Bill Act”, in honor of the way Trump referred to the bill, which the Congressional Budget Office estimates would raise the deficit by $3.8 trillion by 2034.
After stepping aside from the direction of DOGE, Elon Musk also revealed that he intends to reduce his involvement in government, after during the first months of the Trump administration, he implemented widespread cuts in almost all government agencies.

Crystal Palace needs saving… Could Woody Johnson or Jimmy Butler be a hero?

Jets’ CB Sauce Gardner addresses potential extension while attending minicamp: ‘I want to win’
Getty Images New York Jets star cornerback Sauce Gardner is now eligible for a contract extension, but he wasn't interested in holding out of mandatory minicamp to put pressure on the franchise that selected him No. 4 overall back in 2022. Gardner wanted to show everyone he's more focused on winning games in 2025. "I just wanted to show my teammates, show the coaches how much I'm bought into this" Gardner told reporters on Thursday.

Gardner was asked if he was optimistic a deal would get done, and he responded in the affirmative. "My […]

Twins’ rotation problems grow as Bailey Ober struggles with hip issue, mechanics
MINNEAPOLIS — Pitching with diminished velocity Thursday for a third straight start, Minnesota Twins right-hander Bailey Ober failed to make it out of the fifth inning and surrendered seven runs — including career highs of four homers and six walks allowed — in a 16-3 loss to the Texas Rangers.After losing two of three games to the Rangers while being outscored 34-13, the Twins have dropped four of their last five series. And they have a 10-12 record overall since the 13-game winning streak ended May 18, posting a combined 5.22 ERA as a pitching staff during that span.AdvertisementBut as underwhelming as this stretch has been, Ober’s lack of effectiveness could be a far bigger problem for a starting rotation that already lost Pablo López and Zebby Matthews to shoulder injuries in the past 10 days. Instead of helping to […]
