Republicans rejected Democrats’ claims that Elon Musk is running the GOP after the tech titan helped tank a government spending bill. 

Musk, whom Trump has appointed to co-lead the Department of Government Efficiency, announced Wednesday he was opposed to a continuing resolution meant to keep the government funded until March 2025. In a series of posts, over 100, on X, the DOGE leader said the 1,547-page bill went far beyond its stated purpose, arguing it contained major spending increases, a host of unrelated provisions, including pay raises for lawmakers, and changes to the law.
