US Government Shutdown:
The US Capitol in Washington, DC.
Elon Musk intensified his public criticism of the deal House Speaker Mike Johnson struck to temporarily fund the government, ratcheting up the likelihood of a shutdown and declaring any lawmaker who supports the bill should be voted out of office in two years.
The opposition from the world’s richest man and close adviser to President-elect Donald Trump complicates the path forward for Johnson, who negotiated the package with Democrats ahead of a Friday deadline. It also puts House Republicans on notice that breaking from Musk risks becoming a target of the country’s largest political donor.
