It's not just Elon Musk. Other Trump tech allies are turning on his 'big, beautiful bill.' [View all]

(Yahoo Finance) Elon Musk has announced his opposition to a second major plank of Donald Trump's agenda (after previously turning on the president's tariff plans) when he said in a new interview he was "disappointed" by the price tag of Trump's "big, beautiful bill."

The bill "increases the budget deficit ... and undermines the work that the DOGE team is doing," the world's richest man said in a CBS interview that is scheduled to air in full this weekend.

And Musk is not the only one in the world of tech who has questions.

The opposition to the bill has been in evidence among at least a few of Trump's Silicon Valley allies, largely due to a price tag that could see over $3 trillion in new red ink if the bill is passed, as well as lawmakers declining so far to formalize cuts proposed by Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
