The Secret Service has launched a probe into an X post by Elon Musk in which he tweeted that “no one is even trying” to kill Kamala Harris or Joe Biden.

The tech billionaire deleted the post on his X platform and passed it off as a “joke.” However, the White House did not find it funny and instead called it “irresponsible.”

“Violence should only be condemned, never encouraged or joked about,” the White House said in a statement. Now the Secret Service is involved.

    Doubt it. There are no hard indications that he’s a russian asset. He’s just an asshat.

      Yes, but according to Russian asset, serial killer and couch fucker JD Vance, you can make up any lie about anyone you want as long as you are making a point.

        True. There are reports that Elon himself agreed with this in a weekly address to xitter staff, after he thoroughly explained how he takes care to use the right type of lube when rectally inserting cucumbers on himself.
