Trump suggests DOGE should 'take a good, hard look' at government contracts with Musk's companies
Briefly

Donald Trump proposed that the Department of Government Efficiency evaluate cutting contracts with Elon Musk's companies to save government funds. He claimed eliminating rocket launches, satellites, and electric car production could result in substantial savings. Trump responded to Musk's criticism of his proposed legislative measures, which aim for significant spending cuts and tax changes. Musk has vocally opposed the bill, warning it may harm American jobs. Previous tensions between Trump and Musk have resurfaced with Trump's renewed threats to terminate contracts associated with Musk's ventures.
"No more Rocket launches, Satellites, or Electric Car Production, and our Country would save a FORTUNE. Perhaps we should have DOGE take a good, hard, look at this? BIG MONEY TO BE SAVED!!!"
"Utterly insane and destructive. It gives handouts to industries of the past while severely damaging industries of the future," he said.
