There’s never a dull moment in the White House when Donald Trump is president — and now, tensions are flaring between Trump and Elon Musk.
Yesterday, Musk began stepping back from his role in the controversial DOGE programme, reaching the 130-day limit as a special government employee. But behind the scenes, there are rumours of a fallout.
In a revealing interview, Musk slammed Trump’s signature tax plan — the so-called "One Big Beautiful Bill" — claiming it would increase the federal deficit and sabotage his efforts to cut government spending.
In this episode of The Daily T, host Kamal Ahmed sits down with Michael Wolff — the acclaimed Trump biographer and author of Fire and Fury, Siege, and more — to uncover what really happened between Trump and Musk.

The Daily Telegraph’s Chief US Correspondent Rob Crilly also speaks to Kamal from Washington DC, having been in Delaware to witness Joe Biden’s first public appearances since his cancer diagnosis.
