  Elon Musk ripped after SpaceX gets new $40m defense contract amid his cutting of federal budgets - 'Hey, @elonmusk, I found some corruption for DOGE to take a look at,' on X user quipped


Elon Musk has come under fire after his company SpaceX secured a new $40 million defense contract from the U.S. government, despite his previous criticisms of federal spending.

Critics argue that this move contradicts Musk's earlier statements where he advocated for cuts in federal budgets, particularly in areas like defense. Social media and political commentators have highlighted this apparent hypocrisy, pointing out that while Musk has publicly pushed for fiscal responsibility, his businesses continue to benefit from substantial government contracts.
