Tech billionaire Elon Musk has once again criticized President Donald Trump’s “Big Beautiful” spending bill, warning in a key vote that it would cause “immense strategic harm” to the country.

“The latest Senate draft bill will destroy millions of jobs in America and cause immense strategic harm to our country!” Musk posted on X. He added, “Utterly insane and destructive. It gives handouts to industries of the past while severely damaging industries of the future.”

Musk’s remarks come as the U.S. Senate gears up for a key vote on Saturday (local time). Republicans are working swiftly to advance President Trump’s proposed legislation which features tax cuts, spending rollbacks, and increased funding for deportation efforts before the July 4th deadline.
