Elon Musk is departing the Trump administration after working to cut the size of the federal government..

Elon Musk has announced his departure from the Trump administration, citing deep concerns over the recently passed “One Big Beautiful Bill Act.” The legislation, which includes significant tax cuts and reductions in social programs, has been criticized for favoring the wealthy and undermining efforts to streamline government operations.

Musk, who led the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), initially aimed to cut federal spending by up to $2 trillion. However, actual savings amounted to approximately $150 billion. His tenure was marked by mass layoffs and disruptions in agencies like the FDA and EPA. Public approval of Musk declined, with only 33% viewing him favorably by April 2025.
