If you believe what Musk is saying, some of the things his "2 trillion savings" pretty much has to cut is VA, Disability benefits and Unemployment. Most of the rest of the budget is stuff that has forever been used to maintain false GOP support in poorer states.
Of course, the lion's share of that number is that his PAC Actually Said he would stop debt payments, which would immediately lead to a world catastrophe, also would need all of Congress and Senate to roll over and play dead so that number is hopefully complete bunk.
