'Crowned co-president': Elon Musk buried by House Dem for budget demands

X CEO Elon Musk on Wednesday moved to blow up a continuing resolution negotiated by Republicans and Democrats in the House of Representatives, which prompted one House Democrat to ask why the South African-born billionaire had any say in budgetary matters.

Writing on Bluesky, Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-FL) hit back on Musk for threatening Republicans who voted in favor of the CR, which was negotiated by House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA).

"An unelected billionaire was crowned co-President by the Republican Party," argued Frost.
