(DCWatchdog.com) – Echoing the frustrations of countless patriots, Elon Musk has blasted the government spending on illegal aliens as billions of taxpayer dollars are wasted while the government’s reckless policies undermine national interests.
See Elon Musk’s tweet below!
Illegal immigration costs the United States an astounding $150.7 billion annually, as stated by Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and corroborated by the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR).
This figure represents roughly 19% of U.S. defense spending and 2.4% of the country’s total federal expenditures.
With such hefty sums at stake, Musk’s outcry has spotlighted the need for fiscal responsibility.
The immigration debate embodies a classic clash between maintaining open borders and safeguarding the country’s financial interests.
This $150.7 billion expenditure comprises federal, state, and local spending, with an astonishing $66 billion sourced directly from the federal government.
Musk has outwardly criticized not only immigration allocations but other government expenditures, promoting vigilance over wasteful spending.
The tweets from Musk’s DOGE account have stirred significant conversation about the extent of government spending and the urgent need for revamping fiscal strategies.
Among those echoing Musk’s concern is Julie Kirchner of FAIR, who suggests that the $150.7 billion estimate is a conservative figure, potentially higher if current immigration inflow continues unchecked.
The leadership at DOGE, including Vivek Ramaswamy, stands committed to reducing federal waste.
By comparing this immigration spending to monumental historical defense projects like the Apollo initiative, they aim to realign the U.S. budget with national priorities that truly reflect the country’s values.
The scale of spending on illegal immigration boggles the mind! https://t.co/7UJYcWOKeD

“The scale of spending on illegal immigration boggles the mind!” Musk stated, cited by Fox News.
Musk’s influence, particularly in Cameron County, Texas, highlights his ability to shape economic and political landscapes.
Once a Democrat stronghold, the county exhibited a shift in allegiance, with a Republican victory in the 2024 election.
This shift aligns with Musk’s pact with Trump’s “America First” ideology, drawing significant support from working-class Hispanic voters.
The fiscal burden of illegal immigration has been thrust into focus through Musk’s diligent critique, fostering a discourse about viable policy reform.
By exposing the staggering costs and advocating for a restructured immigration policy, Musk is not only challenging existing inefficiencies but advocating for a future where national interests take precedence over unchecked financial hemorrhage.
The potential influence of Musk’s policies in addressing this complex issue cannot be understated.
