Elon Musk Quits Trump’s DOGE—Now Social Media Explodes: ‘Is He Even American?’ | Musk Vs Trump

Elon Musk's resignation from the Trump administration's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has ignited a firestorm on social media, with many questioning his American citizenship. Despite being a naturalized U.S. citizen since 2002, Musk's South African birth has led to renewed scrutiny over his national identity and role in U.S. governance. Musk announced his departure via his platform, X, after a 130-day tenure aimed at reducing federal spending. His exit followed public criticism of President Trump's "big beautiful bill," which Musk argued would exacerbate the federal deficit, undermining DOGE's objectives. #ElonMusk #TrumpVsMusk #MuskResignation #MuskControversy #ElonMuskNews #MuskDOGEExit #NaturalizedCitizen #USCitizenship #AmericanCitizen #MuskBornInSouthAfrica #TrumpAdministration #WhiteHouseDrama #MuskStatement #USPolitics #MayeMuskCanadian ~PR.152~HT.336~GR.122~

NBC Reporter CHALLENGES Trump Team Over White Crosses Video | WH Press Secretary FIRES BACK

A tense exchange erupted during a White House briefing as Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt defended Donald Trump's controversial video shown to South African President Cyril Ramaphosa. NBC's Yamiche Alcindor challenged the clip’s accuracy, saying it falsely portrayed a genocide of white farmers. The video featured dozens of crosses, allegedly representing slain farmers—though Alcindor noted they honored a single couple. Leavitt pushed back, claiming white South Africans are being killed and persecuted due to race. The moment underscores rising tensions around Trump’s rhetoric on race and global narratives. #WhiteHouse #KarolineLeavitt #DonaldTrump #SouthAfrica #GenocideClaim #NBCNews #YamicheAlcindor #FarmMurders #MediaClash #TrumpVideo #PressBriefing #OvalOffice #PoliticalControversy #Misinformation #GlobalPolitics #RaceAndPolitics #USNews #SouthAfricaPolitics #FactCheck #NewsClash #RacialNarratives #TrumpControversy #Journalism #MediaWatch #FakeNewsDebate #InternationalRelations #WhiteFarmers #SouthAfricanFarms #CrossesVideo #PresidentialMeeting #TrumpRhetoric Also Read Congress Slams Centre After Trump Reiterates India-Pakistan Ceasefire Claims: 'Why This Thundering Silence?' :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/congress-slams-centre-after-trump-reiterates-india-pakistan-ceasefire-claims-why-this-thundering-s-4160453.html?ref=DMDesc India-Pakistan Directly Negotiated Ceasefire: S Jaishankar Dismisses Trump's Mediation Claims :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/india-pakistan-directly-negotiated-ceasefire-s-jaishankar-dismisses-trumps-mediation-claims-4160395.html?ref=DMDesc US Defence Department Accepts Boeing 747 From Qatar For Trump's Use :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-defence-department-accepts-boeing-747-from-qatar-for-trumps-use-4160231.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.194~
