So, now that we know the truth, let's have Elon Musk arrested for assault. Photograph his gang tattoos & deport him.

'Sore subject': White House confirms physical brawl between key Trump allies

The incident was previously reported as a "screaming match" between the two men, but the physical aspect has since been confirmed by The White House.

"'Scott Bessent called [Musk] out and said, 'You promised us a trillion dollars (in cuts), and now you're at like $100 billion, and nobody can find anything, what are you doing?'' Bannon recounted. "And that's when Elon got physical. It's a sore subject with him. It wasn't an argument, it was a physical confrontation. Elon basically shoved him."

The altercation was confirmed by White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt on Friday, the Mail reported.

In a statement, Leavitt said, "'It's no secret President Trump has put together a team of people who are incredibly passionate about the issues impacting our country. Disagreements are a normal part of any healthy policy process, and ultimately everyone knows they serve at the pleasure of President Trump."

A few weeks ago, sickening Faux featured on its website a story claiming that Musk was "pulling back the curtain" on his next round of DOGE savings. The article featured a closeup photo of Musk beaming with a crafty grin. The article was complete B.S. Sadly, the low-information MAGAs who read it believed it was true, and they still do. They think Musk and DOGE have saved trillions of tax dollars. More than likely, the opposite is true.
