Elon Musk criticized President Donald Trump’s “One Big, Beautiful Bill,” saying it “undermines” what the Department of Government Efficiency is doing – while also admitting the administration’s tariffs have harmed his businesses.

Speaking with CBS News in an interview that aired Sunday morning, Musk, 53, admitted Trump’s tariffs affect his businesses, saying, “You know, tariffs always affect things a little bit.”

Musk then declined to comment on the Trump Administration’s pause on allowing student visas – which is what allowed the billionaire to come to the U.S. 1992– and said he wanted to focus on “the subject of the day,” meaning spaceships.

Despite claiming the subject was off limits, the Tesla and SpaceX CEO proceeded vented his frustrations over the president’s expensive new spending bill passing in the House. “I was, like, disappointed to see the massive spending bill, frankly, which increases the budget deficit, doesn’t decrease it, and undermines the work that the DOGE team is doing,” Musk said.

5. re: "undermines the work that the DOGE team is doing" -- a setup to blame Trump for DOGE failures.
