Trump news at a glance: Musk attacks president’s tax bill; Colorado suspect’s family detained by Ice

Just days after leaving the White House, Elon Musk has become increasingly critical of President Donald Trump’s tax bill, labeling it a “disgusting abomination.” Musk’s public criticism could empower conservative Republican senators to challenge Trump as they engage in crucial negotiations on Capitol Hill regarding the tax bill. Musk recently stepped down from his role at the White House overseeing the “department of government efficiency” (Doge), which aimed to reduce fraud and abuse in federal departments. He believes the tax bill will hinder Doge’s efforts and worsen the country’s debt situation.

In a new development, tech mogul Elon Musk has clashed with President Donald Trump over the tax and spending bill, describing it as a “disgusting abomination.” Musk expressed his disapproval on social media, calling the bill a massive and pork-filled legislation that is shameful for those who supported it. Republican figure Marjorie Taylor Greene faced backlash for admitting she did not read the bill before voting for it and stated she would have opposed it if she had.

Additionally, a rule change by the US Social Security Administration could leave millions of legal immigrants without the ability to work. Evangelical leader Johnnie Moore has been appointed as the head of the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, while the Trump administration has reversed Biden-era guidance on emergency abortion care. Furthermore, a US judge has ruled that prisons must offer gender-affirming care for transgender inmates despite Trump’s attempts to halt funding for such services.
