Rand Paul gives Elon Musk's plans a major reality check

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) is warning Elon Musk that a rude awakening is coming.

Fox News reporter Chad Pergram interviewed the Libertarian-leaning Republican, who discussed his ongoing crusade to reduce government spending, which he acknowledged so far have been fruitless.

"Ultimately, it takes Congress," he explained. "Congress has to get rid of the spending."

Musk and former Republican Party presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy are set to lead a new government bureaucracy that has yet to be created.
