Phoenix Mercury guard Natasha Cloud took aim at Elon Musk and other billionaires for their involvement in the government funding bill controversy, accusing them of lacking understanding of the legislative process.
Phoenix Mercury guard Natasha Cloud criticized Elon Musk and other billionaires on social media following the passage of a temporary funding bill to avert a government shutdown . Musk and President-elect Donald Trump spearheaded a conservative opposition to the initial bipartisan agreement, which would have extended government funding until March 14. GOP representatives objected to provisions unrelated to funding, such as a congressional pay raise and healthcare policy changes.
The bill was ultimately scrapped after Trump and Musk threatened to oust lawmakers who didn't support linking the funding measure with debt limit action. Cloud commented days later, expressing her frustration with the billionaires' lack of understanding of the legislative process and criticizing the GOP representatives who defied the bill. This incident follows past instances where Cloud has been vocal about social and political issues, including criticizing women who voted for Trump after his election victory
