Musk's Response

On X, Musk rejected the claims, calling AOC a “liar” and an “actor,” and saying her statements are easily disproved by a web search. Supporters chimed in online to back the tech boss as the exchange drew wide attention.

Numbers, Roles and Timeline

The reporting notes Musk’s involvement with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), an audit effort that proposed cuts. DOGE said it would slash about $215 billion; outside estimates put savings at $55–$85 billion. Tesla reportedly held over $38 billion in U.S. contracts as of Feb 2025. DOGE ended early in Nov 2025 and Musk stepped away from government duties in May 2025.
