Key Trump ally comes out against massive emergency spending plan: 'This bill should not pass'

Billionaire and key Trump ally Elon Musk came out in opposition to House Speaker Mike Johnson's proposed bill to keep the government funded on Wednesday.

Musk attacked the bill on social media, arguing the 1,547-page document is full of "pork." The legislation is designed to avoid a Friday government shutdown and fund the government through March.
