Elon Musk publicly criticized President Trump's White House for scapegoating the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) amid mass federal layoffs. Speaking from SpaceX in Texas, Musk noted that DOGE is unfairly blamed for unrelated issues. This marks a shift from his previously supportive stance towards Trump, particularly following challenges faced by Tesla. Musk expressed disappointment over a recent spending bill, suggesting it exacerbates budget deficits and undermines DOGE's initiatives. Looking forward, Musk aims to modernize government computer systems to alleviate ongoing inefficiencies.
DOGE is just becoming the whipping boy for everything. So, like, something bad would happen anywhere, and we would get blamed for it even if we had nothing to do with it.
I was disappointed to see the massive spending bill, frankly, which increases the budget deficit, not decrease it and undermines the work the DOGE team is doing.
There are so many situations where the computers are so broken, and this is just literally a thing that was brought to my attention.
People were burning Teslas. Why would you do that? That's really uncool.
