Musk vs Trump EXPLODES: Musk Torches Trump’s Big, Beautiful Bill: ‘Kill It Before It Kills America’

The Musk–Trump feud has erupted into a full-blown political firestorm. Days after resigning from his White House advisory role, Elon Musk has publicly declared war on Donald Trump’s flagship spending legislation — dubbed the “Debt Slavery Bill.” In a scathing attack, Musk urged Americans to “Kill it before it kills America,” accusing the bill of ballooning the national debt by $5 trillion and betraying the very principles of fiscal conservatism. Branding it a “suicide pact for America’s future,” Musk is now spearheading a grassroots campaign to derail the legislation, pressuring Congress and vowing to “fire every politician who voted for this betrayal.” News that speaks your language – Oneindia App is now live | Click on the below link to download https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.greynium.oneindia&hl=en_IN #BigBeautifulBill #ElonMusk #TrumpVsMusk #TrumpSpendingBill #MuskOnTrump #OneBigBeautifulBill #ElonMuskTrump #TrumpMuskFight #MuskCallsOutTrump #TrumpBigBeautifulBill #ElonVsTrump #MuskSlamsTheBill #DonaldTrump #ElonMuskPolitics #KillTheBillSaveAmerica Also Read Elon Musk's Tesla 'Not Interested' In Manufacturing EVs In India: Union Minister Kumaraswamy :: https://www.oneindia.com/business/elon-musks-tesla-not-interested-in-manufacturing-evs-in-india-union-minister-kumaraswamy-4170195.html?ref=DMDesc Elon Musk's Father Errol Lands In India, Set To Attend EV Policy Meetings, Visit Ayodhya Ram Temple :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/elon-musks-father-errol-lands-in-india-set-to-attend-ev-policy-meetings-visit-ayodhya-ram-temple-4170009.html?ref=DMDesc Punched Me In Face...: Elon Musk Appears With Bruise Near Right Eye; Know What Happened :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/punched-me-in-face-elon-musk-appears-with-bruise-near-right-eye-know-what-happened-4168879.html?ref=DMDesc

U.S. DEFENDS Israel Over Gaza Aid Shooting That Killed 27 | Leavitt Blasts BBC's ‘FAKE’ Rafah Report

During a press briefing, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt criticized the BBC for its reporting on an alleged Israeli tank strike near an aid center in Rafah. Leavitt accused the outlet of relying too heavily on Hamas claims and pointed to several changing headlines as evidence of misinformation. The administration says it is verifying facts independently, suggesting the BBC prematurely blamed Israel. The clash reignites debates over media credibility, Middle East coverage, and the challenge of reporting from conflict zones. #WhiteHouse #KarolineLeavitt #BBCNews #Rafah #GazaCrisis #MediaBias #Israel #Hamas #MiddleEast #PressBriefing #FakeNews #IsraelGaza #AidIncident #ConflictReporting #USPolitics #MediaWatch #HeadlineControversy #BBCvsWhiteHouse #GazaStrip #NewsEthics #Misinformation #InternationalNews #BreakingNews #BBCBacklash #IsraelPalestine #WarCoverage #PressFreedom #FactCheck #JournalismEthics #MediaAccountability Also Read Harvard Not To Receive New Grants Until It Meets White House Demands: Trump Administration :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/harvard-to-not-receive-new-grants-until-it-meets-white-house-demands-trump-administration-4144481.html?ref=DMDesc White House Slammed For 'Dehumanising' Deportation Video Set To Pop Anthem: 'Na Na Na Na, Na Na Na Na' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/white-house-slammed-for-dehumanising-deportation-video-set-to-pop-anthem-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-n-4116107.html?ref=DMDesc Historic Southern Magnolia Tree to Be Removed from the White House Grounds Over Safety Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/historic-tree-removal-white-house-safety-concerns-011-4109883.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.346~GR.122~

‘He Was NOT Told’: Trump SNUBBED By Zelensky Before MAJOR Drone Strike On Russian Airfields [Video]

‘He Was NOT Told’: Trump SNUBBED By Zelensky Before MAJOR Drone Strike On Russian Airfields

President Trump was not informed in advance about Ukraine’s bold drone offensive—Operation Spiderweb—which targeted four Russian air bases and damaged over 40 bombers. The White House, via Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, confirmed Trump’s exclusion following reports from Axios and Ukrainian officials. The June 1 operation, coordinated by Ukraine’s Security Service using smuggled FPV drones, struck deep within Russian territory. The revelation raises key questions about U.S.-Ukraine intelligence sharing and Trump’s role in global security decisions as he heads into the 2024 election spotlight. #Trump #Ukraine #Russia #DroneStrike #OperationSpiderweb #WhiteHouse #KarolineLeavitt #FPVDrones #USPolitics #GlobalSecurity #Axios #Putin #UkrainianIntel #RussianAirBases #DroneWarfare #BreakingNews #DefenseNews #MilitaryStrike #Trump2024 #SecurityBriefing #WarInUkraine #InternationalRelations #UkraineRussiaWar #SpyOps #GeoPolitics #NationalSecurity #UkraineIntel #RussianMilitary #USUkraineTies #SBU #UkraineOffensive Also Read Trump Doubles Steel, Aluminium Tariffs To 50%, Excludes UK: "Vital For America's 'National Security'" :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-doubles-steel-aluminium-tariffs-to-50-excludes-uk-vital-for-americas-national-security-4171703.html?ref=DMDesc Rahul Gandhi Targets PM Modi, Says Prime Minister Surrendered After Donald Trump's 'Ceasefire' Call :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/rahul-gandhi-targets-pm-modi-says-prime-minister-surrendered-after-donald-trumps-ceasefire-call-4171423.html?ref=DMDesc India-US Trade Deal Likely Soon, Says Trump Aide: 'Not Too Distant Future Because...' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/india-us-trade-deal-likely-soon-says-trump-aide-not-too-distant-future-because-4170765.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.346~GR.122~
