The once-close relationship between U.S. President Donald Trump and tech mogul Elon Musk has unraveled amid a public feud over a proposed tax-and-spending bill. Musk criticized the bill as fiscally irresponsible, prompting Trump to threaten the cancellation of major federal contracts with Musk’s companies, including SpaceX and Starlink—worth over $22 billion. The spat escalated on social media, with Musk calling for Trump’s impeachment. Tesla shares plunged 14%, erasing $150 billion in market value. The fallout has cast uncertainty over key U.S. space projects and raised tensions between the tech world and the Trump administration. (PC: Reuters)
