Outgoing trump administration advisor Elon Musk is flatly denying accusations of drug abuse.
Musk stepped aside Friday as leader of the Department of Government Efficiency, DOGE, as the time limit ran out for him to serve as a special government employee. President Trump thanked him in an Oval Office press event. In recent days Musk been hit with accusations he’s been abusing the drug ketamine. Yesterday, one social media post on X shows video of him entertaining fellow guests at Mar A Lago by balancing spoons during a dinner and implies Musk was impaired. Musk took to X himself and replied “I’m not on ketamine FFS.”
This comes after a New York Times report that during the 2024 presidential campaign, Musk “juggled drugs and family drama.”
In his Oval Office appearance, Musk said consider the source.
“I think the judge just ruled against the New York Times for their lies about the Russiagate hoax," he pointed out. "And they might have to give back that Pulitzer Prize. That New York Times? Let’s move on.”
