“The American people deserve to know whether Mr. Musk was under the influence while he gleefully took a ‘chainsaw’ to our federal government,” Rep. Stephen Lynch said in a letter to Trump.
WASHINGTON — Democrats want to know if President Donald Trump ever noticed his former adviser Elon Musk using drugs while working in the White House.
Rep. Stephen Lynch (Mass.), the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, asked Trump in a letter Wednesday about recent reporting that Musk used ketamine, ecstasy and psychedelic mushrooms during the 2024 presidential campaign.
“The drastic and erratic nature of Mr. Musk’s decisions and actions as a government employee, coupled with the reports of his drug use, begs the question whether Mr. Musk was under the influence of illicit substances while working in your White House,” Lynch wrote in his letter.
“The American people deserve to know whether Mr. Musk was under the influence while he gleefully took a ‘chainsaw’ to our federal government,” Lynch wrote.
Musk served as a special government employee heading up Trump’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency, an initiative aimed at tackling wasteful spending. Musk and his team identified a tiny fraction of the $2 trillion of allegedly wasteful spending he once boasted he’d eliminate.
