  Elon Musk intensified his public criticism of the deal House Speaker Mike Johnson struck to temporarily fund the government, ratcheting up the likelihood of a shutdown and declaring any lawmaker who supports the bill should be voted out of office in two years.

Elon Musk criticized a $1.2 trillion U.S. government funding bill as a "crime" on social media, intensifying Republican opposition to the legislation.

Musk's comments align with those of other GOP critics like Rep. Chip Roy and Sen. Mike Lee, who argue that the bill represents excessive spending and a failure to address key issues like border security. This opposition highlights the ongoing internal conflict within the Republican Party between those advocating for fiscal conservatism and those willing to compromise to keep government operations running.
