Elon Musk Says He Is So Sorry for His Horrible Behavior

futurism.com Unknown 2026-02-07 14:15:08

In February, as the disastrous effects of the so-called Department of Government Efficiency's gutting of federal agencies started to emerge, the agency's figurehead Elon Musk took to the stage of the Conservative Political Action Conference and waved a chainsaw in the air. Standing alongside Argentinian president Javier Milei, Musk wielded the shiny metal-plated prop to send a blunt message: the federal government's budget was being slashed beyond recognition.

The Republican Party's opposition to tax credits for electric vehicles has stepped up a notch. As its members in the US Senate add their input to the budget bill that came from their colleagues in the House of Representatives, among the changes they want to see is a faster eradication of the IRS clean vehicle tax credit. The tax credit provides up to $7,500 off the price of an EV as long as certain conditions are met, and the language from the House would have given it until the end of the year.
