Elon Musk, Resignation from the White House and Recent Controversies

Elon Musk has announced his resignation from the position of special advisor to the U.S. Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). The press conference took place at the White House, where Musk officially resigned alongside President Donald Trump. On that day, a bruise near Musk's right eye caught the attention of many, and he explained that it occurred during some playful moments with his son. The press conference was held shortly after the New York Times reported allegations of Musk's excessive ketamine use, which he denied while continuing to criticize the media. President Trump presented Musk with a golden key engraved with the White House logo to honor his contributions during his tenure. Musk claimed to have led a $1 trillion budget reduction through DOGE, but some analyses suggest that the actual savings amounted to only $160 billion. Some reports indicate that there may have been a loss of $135 billion instead. He described DOGE as a way of life akin to Buddhism and expressed his belief that his influence would persist even after his resignation. However, amidst Tesla's poor performance and ongoing criticism of Musk's public activities, public interest is focused on his future endeavors.
