Amazing how suddenly all of this information about musk's drug use is magically available and all over the press the day he formally leaves the white house.
The media is complicit in trump and musk's crimes against the country.

We got the “deconstructed hitler” regime.
One of them got the drug addiction and racism, another got the no-drinking stupid decision fascist part.
Which one will be the public speaking book burner?
My guess: Marjolie Taylor Greene. For the likes of the Trump Regime, she totally would fit in as the head inquisitor. She is a black mark on religiosity, being a hypocrite incarnate.
Confiscate his assets and deport his ass!
Where, epstein island?
Put him on a plane, pick a direction, and fly it until it runs out of fuel.
Aim for the sun even if you miss you’ll be among the stars
Actually, fucking fine, as long as he stays there. And no flying in underage anything.
Good thing his totally not creepy boy harem was recruited just out of high school.
Not even his human shield kid?
Hell.
As Elon Musk became one of Donald J. Trump’s closest allies last year, leading raucous rallies and donating about $275 million to help him win the presidency, he was also using drugs far more intensely than previously known, according to people familiar with his activities.
Alleged use of ILLEGAL drugs. Say it, NYT, say it. You're gonna tell me he's got a prescription for psychedelic mushrooms and ecstasy? And he'll prove it in court? Well then SAY IT.
It is unclear whether Mr. Musk, 53, was taking drugs when he became a fixture at the White House this year and was handed the power to slash the federal bureaucracy. But he has exhibited erratic behavior, insulting cabinet members, gesturing like a Nazi and garbling his answers in a staged interview.
Okay I'll give you 'gesturing like a Nazi' but still that was a pulled punch.
As a large government contractor, Mr. Musk’s aerospace firm, SpaceX, must maintain a drug-free work force and administers random drug tests to its employees. But Mr. Musk has received advance warning of the tests, according to people close to the process. SpaceX did not respond to questions about those warnings.
Sure. Who's his clean pee mule?
But last year, as he jumped into the political arena, some people who knew him worried about his frequent drug use, mood swings and fixation on having more children. This account of his behavior is based on private messages obtained by The Times as well as interviews with more than a dozen people who have known or worked with him.
. . . In an interview in March 2024, the journalist Don Lemon pressed him on his drug use. Mr. Musk said he took only “a small amount” of ketamine, about once every two weeks, as a prescribed treatment for negative moods.
“If you’ve used too much ketamine, you can’t really get work done, and I have a lot of work,” he said.
He had actually developed a far more serious habit, The Times found.
Woah you mean the drug addict who's off-the-charts-narcissism is lying about how much drugs they're using in a public interview? Damn. I'm not going to hassle the NYT for this one either, it's unusually feisty for them.
High AF
. . . Mr. Musk was also facing federal investigations into his businesses. Regulators were looking into crashes of Tesla’s self-driving cars and allegations of racism at its factories, among other complaints.
“There are at least half a dozen initiatives of significance to take me down,” he wrote in a text message to someone close to him last May. “The Biden administration views me as the #2 threat after Trump.”
“I can’t be president, but I can help Trump defeat Biden and I will,” he added.
Investigations closed, and his ol pal Peter Theil and he now have all the confidential data they can handle direct from the super-well protected data mines of the gub mint.
. . . Ms. St. Clair said that Mr. Musk told her he had fathered children around the world, including one with a Japanese pop star. He said he would be willing to give his sperm to anyone who wanted to have a child.
“He made it seem like it was just his altruism and he generally believed these people should just have children,” Ms. St. Clair said.
That is several kinds of fucked up.
As he walked onto the stage, he was handed a chain saw from one of his political allies, Javier Milei, the president of Argentina. “This is the chain saw for bureaucracy!” Mr. Musk shouted to the cheering crowd.
Some conference organizers told The Times that they did not notice anything out of the ordinary about his behavior behind the scenes. But during an onstage interview, he spoke in disjointed bouts of stuttering and laughing, with sunglasses on. Clips of it went viral as many viewers speculated about possible drug use.
sigh
Just for uh, emphasis:
His fuckin' eyes man... just meandered up to the sky, zonked outta his fucking gourd...
EDIT:
And who can forget the classic 'im just wearing shades cuz its so bright in here...
...Oh dear lord, here's a bonus, breaking news!!!
Sorry to cite Fox News but Im on mobile and they have an actual static image instead of some auto play bullshit.
Somebody in Trump's cabinet fucking decked him, he has a black eye, and he is blaming his 5 yo.
Jesus. Fucking. Christ.
As a CEO of a defense contractor he cannot take any illegal drugs
And yet he is, by many accounts. So.
Then he should be forced from the boards of all of these companies or they should receive no federal or state monies
Well exactly. And yet.
Just another example of the ruling class having no rules.
Don't you know that laws only apply to poor people? Duh.
But but billionaires are so perfect, made superior to all of us by Republican Jesus! /s
Dude prolly don't even know how to play golf, let alone build a yacht..
Musk = POS Nazi.
Sounds like the right sort of person you'd want, if your goal is to vandalize and sabotage functional systems.
Also the right guy if the job calls for massive privacy breaches for all citizens.
I'm not about to dig deep, but someone already jacked and shared Elmo's social security number..
Pervitin. Selbsternannte Übermenschen schwören darauf.
Now if only his physician gives him an excessive dose...
Do you remember when drug addicts weren't allowed in the government? Pepperidge Farms remembers!
