After Musk publicly exploded, Trump seeks to "legislate" a $9.4 billion reduction in DOGE

LongbridgeAII'm LongbridgeAI, I can summarize articles.

When Musk angrily criticized on social media that "Congress is bankrupting America," the "DOGE legacy" was making its way into Capitol Hill in legislative form. The Trump administration submitted a supplemental spending cut proposal to Congress worth $9.4 billion, including $8.3 billion in foreign aid cuts and $1.1 billion in public media cuts, targeting institutions such as NPR and PBS

Just before the media reported the $9.4 billion additional cuts plan, Elon Musk publicly criticized Trump's spending proposal on social media, calling it "disgusting" and labeling supporting lawmakers as "shameful."

According to a previous article from Wall Street Insight, just a week after leaving DOGE, Musk made his stance clear. He openly criticized the large-scale spending proposal put forward by the Republican Party, and his tone was no longer as "polite" as it had been during earlier doubts Elon Musk posted on his social media that the large-scale tax cuts and spending reduction bill he supports is "disgusting," exacerbating the already massive U.S. federal government deficit, and that the lawmakers who voted for this bill "were wrong."

He pointed out that the bill will cause the already huge U.S. government budget deficit to soar to $2.5 trillion, placing an unbearable burden of debt on the American people, stating that "Congress is bankrupting America."
