Ex-NFL star calls out Elon Musk critics: 'This world is fried'

Elon Musk, a billionaire and senior advisor to President Donald Trump, explains the Department of Government Efficiency's goal, arguing America will become 'de facto bankrupt' if current spending habits continue.

Former Pittsburgh Steelers star Le’Veon Bell once again put critics of billionaire Elon Musk on blast in a post on social media.

Musk has come under fire as he was tapped to be the key advisor for the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). The DOGE team has been instructed to find ways to cut government spending, among other tasks.

Bell, who had already defended Musk and President Donald Trump earlier in the week, had more to write about the CEO of X, SpaceX and Tesla.

"Imagine coming to this app to call Elon Musk ‘stupid,’" the former NFL running back wrote in his post. "The same guy that owns this app, and who is actually putting rockets into the sky... but we really have ppl who sit on the app and do NOTHING all day, but complain about Elon Musk... lol this world is fried bro, FRIED."

DOGE on Tuesday reported it had saved around $65 billion. DOGE said the savings estimate came from a "combination of fraud detection/deletion, contract/lease cancelations, contract/lease re-negotiations, asset sales, grant cancelations, workforce reductions, programmatic changes, and regulatory savings."
