Elon Musk Quits Trump’s DOGE—Now Social Media Explodes: ‘Is He Even American?’ | Musk Vs Trump
Elon Musk's resignation from the Trump administration's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has ignited a firestorm on social media, with many questioning his American citizenship.
Despite being a naturalized U.S. citizen since 2002, Musk's South African birth has led to renewed scrutiny over his national identity and role in U.S. governance.
Musk announced his departure via his platform, X, after a 130-day tenure aimed at reducing federal spending.
His exit followed public criticism of President Trump's "big beautiful bill," which Musk argued would exacerbate the federal deficit, undermining DOGE's objectives.
Pope Leo XIV, formerly Robert Prevost, has sparked waves with his limited but telling 2025 social media posts. Before his election, he subtly criticized Vice President JD Vance, reposted content calling out Donald Trump's stance on immigration, and expressed support for Pope Francis' health. His posts reflect a compassionate stance on immigration, Dreamers, gun reform, and climate action-drawing cheers from liberals and concern from right-wing commentators. Though not prolific online, these posts provide a glimpse into the political leanings of the first American pope and what his leadership could signal for the global Church.

Elon Musk has announced he is stepping back from his role in President Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), citing Tesla’s severe financial struggles as a primary reason. Tesla recently reported a 71% drop in profits and a 13% decline in sales, impacted by public boycotts linked to Musk’s political involvement. Meanwhile, Musk’s approval ratings have taken a hit, with polls showing growing public disapproval of his government role.

Elon Musk has stepped down from leading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), handing the reins to conservative policy strategist Russell Vought. A key Trump ally, Vought is best known for shaping Project 2025 and pushing aggressive spending cuts and federal downsizing. He aims to revive Trump’s Schedule F and slash budgets at agencies like USAID and NPR. Musk, who reportedly wants to focus on Tesla and SpaceX, had worked closely with Vought during DOGE’s early days. Critics warn Vought's Christian nationalist leanings and military spending cuts may spark major backlash.

Elon Musk's departure from the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) marks a significant shift in the Trump administration's cost-cutting agenda. Musk, who served as a special government employee, stepped down after reaching the 130-day service limit. His exit follows criticism of the administration's "One Big Beautiful Bill," which Musk argued would increase the federal deficit, countering DOGE's objectives.
During his tenure, Musk aimed to reduce federal spending by $2 trillion but managed to cut approximately $150 billion. His efforts included auditing government credit cards, canceling leases on underutilized federal buildings, and restructuring agencies like USAID and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

A tense exchange erupted during a White House briefing as Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt defended Donald Trump's controversial video shown to South African President Cyril Ramaphosa. NBC's Yamiche Alcindor challenged the clip’s accuracy, saying it falsely portrayed a genocide of white farmers. The video featured dozens of crosses, allegedly representing slain farmers—though Alcindor noted they honored a single couple. Leavitt pushed back, claiming white South Africans are being killed and persecuted due to race. The moment underscores rising tensions around Trump’s rhetoric on race and global narratives.
