QUESTION OF THE DAY: Do you agree with Elon Musk on the ‘One Big, Beautiful Bill?’

Elon Musk didn't pull any punches this week about President Donald Trump's legislative agenda.

“I’m sorry, but I just can’t stand it anymore. This massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination,” Musk posted Tuesday on X. “Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong. You know it.”

Musk was, of course, the architect of DOGE, which swept into multiple government agencies in the name of slashing fraud and waste and shrinking the federal workforce. In the end, his efforts fell short of promises, though Congress will soon take up legislation to codify some of the DOGE cuts.

Musk's criticism of the bill is shared by some conservatives, who worry it will increase budget deficits instead of reducing them.

Do you agree with Musk? Let us know by voting in the poll.
