It should certainly come as no surprise that Elon Musk’s recent appearance from the Oval Office has been welcomed with a degree of criticism.
The SpaceX and Tesla creator, now acting head of the newly-formed Department of Government Efficiency, answered a number of questions from the press, including a rather unusual one referencing a claimed shipment of $50 million worth of condoms to Gaza.
Recall that Musk has received harsh criticism in some places for merely holding an active position in the White House.
The 53-year-old has never run for office; instead, President Donald Trump appointed him to the position after he contributed millions of dollars to Trump’s campaign and launched a vigorous public relations campaign on his social media platform, X.
As was to be expected, Trump’s first few weeks in office have been filled with events. The real estate tycoon has signed several controversial executive orders and made a lot of plans that are, to be honest, hard for people to believe.
