This is how he commented on a publication that said that the US has accumulated $12 trillion in debt over the past 5 years - as much as in the 200 years before that.
Recall that Musk sharply criticized Trump's new spending bill, saying it would "significantly increase the already gigantic budget deficit to $2.5 trillion." He called on Congress to fail the vote.

“Thus, the Party rejects and vilifies every principle for which the Socialist movement originally stood, and it chooses to do this in the name of Socialism. It preaches a contempt for the working class unexampled for centuries past, and it dresses its members in a uniform which was at one time peculiar to manual workers and was adopted for that reason. It systematically undermines the solidarity of the family, and it calls its leader by a name which is a direct appeal to the sentiments of family loyalty. Even the names of the four Ministries by which we are governed exhibit a sort of impudence in their deliberate reversal of the facts. The Ministry of Peace concerns itself with war, the Ministry of Truth with lies, the Ministry of Love with torture and the Ministry of Plenty with starvation. These contradictions are not accidental, nor do they result from from ordinary hypocrisy: they are deliberate exercises in doublethink. For it is only by reconciling contradictions that power can be retained indefinitely.”

"Builder-ai Collapses: $1.5bn 'AI' Startup Exposed as 'Actually Indians' Pretending to Be Bots" - Vinay Patel, IBT, 02JUN2025
>Builder-ai, the British no-code AI startup that once garnered acclaim for its partnership with Microsoft and secured a $250 million investment led by the Qatar Investment Authority, declared Tuesday that it is initiating bankruptcy protection.
>The company's dramatic decline occurred after a key lender, Viola Credit, withdrew $37 million from its accounts, leaving a mere $5 million in restricted funds and effectively paralysing operations in five nations.
>Bloomberg notes that these allegations initiated a cascade of investor apprehension, internal changes, and an eventual erosion of confidence. Adding to the troubles, Linas Beliūnas, Director of the financial company Zero Hash, recently exposed that Builder-ai lacked true AI, instead utilising a group of Indian developers who were merely pretending to be bots writing code.

The U.S. is calculating potential air battle scenarios with Russia over Europe, according to an analytical report by the Rand Corporation, prepared at the request of the U.S. Air Force.
The report suggests that in the initial days of a conflict, Russia may be able to strike NATO forces. However, the alliance is expected to achieve air superiority over Eastern Europe shortly afterward.
Experts note that neutralizing Russia’s air defense systems would pave the way for active reconnaissance and precision strikes. NATO aircraft could then track enemy movements, identify vulnerabilities, and conduct large-scale attacks on command centers, logistics hubs, and mobile combat units—allowing the alliance to seize the initiative quickly.
At the same time, the report warns that such a conflict could escalate into nuclear war, especially if Russian forces suffer severe losses or if NATO’s actions are perceived as a threat to Russia’s territorial integrity.

"For over a decade, the federal government has had the authority to conduct border searches of travelers’ personal electronics, including phones, laptops and tablets. In recent years, such inspections have steadily increased, though they happen to only a small portion of people entering the United States."
