Building America’s Future, a dark-money group that has been supported by Elon Musk, is shelling out more than a million dollars to promote recent White House wins, including a GOP domestic policy package the Tesla CEO and former Trump administration employee once called “a disgusting abomination.”

The 30-second ad, titled “Independence,” is set to run nationally on Fox News and will congratulate President Donald Trump on the passage of Republicans’ “One Big, Beautiful Bill,” which extends his 2017 tax cuts alongside other GOP wins at the expense of nearly $1 trillion in coming Medicaid cuts.

“This Independence Day, President Trump and Congress made the working family tax cuts law,” the spot, which is to debut Monday, will say. Freeing Americans from taxes on their tips and overtime, doubling the child tax credit, and cutting taxes for seniors. Republicans know that our country is better off when working families keep more of what they earn. Now, they will.”

Musk, who has donated extensively to BAF, assailed the megabill when it reached Congress. Calling it “utterly insane and destructive,” he promised to fund primary challengers to all Republicans who voted for the bill and declared the arrival of a new America Party” after Trump signed it. As the pair’s rift escalated in June, Trump responded by threatening his former backer’s government contracts. And Musk, the world’s richest man, perhaps presciently wrote that Trump was in the Jeffrey Epstein files. But the group that Musk has backed doesn’t agree with his assessment of the megabill.

1. Proves Musk is a liar and fraud with his supposed fight with Trump as he's doing what I said he would weeks ago.
