Musk Threatens Republicans Over Big Bad Bill

After declaring he was stepping away from the political spotlight, Elon Musk got right back in it.

As the Senate debated President Donald Trump's "Big, Beautiful Bill" on Monday before a final vote, Musk issued a stark warning via his social media platform X.

"Every member of Congress who campaigned on reducing government spending and then immediately voted for the biggest debt increase in history should hang their head in shame! And they will lose their primary next year if it is the last thing I do on this Earth," he wrote.

"In a flurry of X posts several weeks ago, Musk had proposed starting a new political party.

That proposal resurfaced on Monday, when Musk said:

"It is obvious with the insane spending of this bill, which increases the debt ceiling by a record FIVE TRILLION DOLLARS that we live in a one-party country " the PORKY PIG PARTY!! Time for a new political party that actually cares about the people."

He doesn't, but this is no idle threat. His money probably has more influence with Congress than Lewzer's mouth.

So it boils down to the threat of The Trump Dynasty (with Eric and Laura) vs Vengeful perhaps soon to be Illegal immigrant Billionaire from S.A. MR Musk.

I'm pretty sure they will have to pick one or the other. Too bad their constituents are not even in the running.

Elon realized he lost the people who were buying his cars and he's trying his best to do damage control.
