Billionaire Elon Musk said in an interview with CBS Sunday Morning, aired on Sunday, that the newly imposed United States global tariffs affect his businesses "a little bit," but refrained from entering into further discussion on this issue.

Speaking about President Donald Trump's administration, Musk stressed that he does not always agree with the administration's moves and decisions. "I don't wanna, you know, speak up against the administration, but I also don't wanna take responsibility for everything this administration's doing," he said. He declined to comment on the latest decision of the Trump administration to revoke visas to foreign students.

The interview was conducted before Musk officially announced that he will leave the post of special government employee as the head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
