Just days after leaving office under nebulous circumstances, sporting a black eye that many attribute to an altercation that precipitated his departure from the White House, Elon Musk railed against the Trump administration.

In an unexpected turnaround, he launched an offensive against the “Big Beautiful Bill”, saying he could no longer remain silent in the face of what he described as a “massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill”.

To mobilize public opinion, Musk is now urging Americans to “kill the bill”, sharing a poster of Quentin Tarantino’s film Kill Bill as a symbol of his crusade.

In another post, the billionaire tells Americans, “Call your senator, call your congressman, bankrupting America is NOT ok! KILL the BILL”.

According to the Wall Street Journal, Donald Trump is beginning to lose patience with Elon Musk, who is using his platform and 200 million subscribers to attack the presidential bill, despite their recent alliance.

The WSJ reports that Trump is frustrated by Musk’s growing influence over certain Republican elected officials such as Marjorie Taylor Greene (Georgia), Scott Perry (Pennsylvania) and Mike Flood (Nebraska), who now regret having supported the project and are publicly opposing it.

While Donald Trump’s representatives have adopted a measured tone in public in the face of Elon Musk’s virulent forwards against the “Big Beautiful Bill”, asserting that the president already knew the billionaire’s positions, Musk’s outing risks provoking internal tensions within the administration.

By announcing his intention to target all elected officials who supported the bill in the 2026 mid-term elections, asserting, “In November of next year, we will fire every politician who has betrayed the American people,” Elon Musk is clearly testing Republican unity…

It remains to be seen whether his call to Kill the Bill will end up shaking some of the party’s elected officials, or whether it will remain without any real political effect!
