Tesla CEO and head of Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), Elon Musk, and U.S. President Donald Trump arrived at the White House late Sunday evening (local time). Prior to that, Musk and his mother, Maye Musk, were guests at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida.
Musk rode back to the White House with the President on the Presidential helicopter. His son X and his mom were also spotted alighting from the plane. As Musk got down, he was carrying his son on his shoulders, and they both waved to the press.
In the past, when X was in the White House, it would result in the historic Resolute Desk being removed from the Oval Office. According to the New York Post, Trump directed the desk to be removed for refurbishment after Musk’s four-year-old son was caught on camera picking his nose and then rubbing it on the desk when he appeared live on air.
While there, Musk’s son X AE A-12 was spotted fidgeting, babbling, and occasionally walking around the room as he sat with his father and Trump during a combined Q&A session on the subject of the Department of Government Efficiency, New York Post reported.
In the meantime, Musk recently gave birth to his 14th child with his partner, Shivon Zilis. On March 1, Zilis posted on her X account to announce the news of their fourth child, Seldon Lycurgus, but did not give out the specific date of birth. She posted in her post, “Spoke with Elon, and given lovely Arcadia’s birthday, we both thought it better to also simply share directly about our amazing and incredible son, Seldon Lycurgus. Built like a juggernaut, with a strong heart of gold. Love him so much.”
Also, Musk appeared at Trump’s first Cabinet meeting on February 27, where he attended as ‘tech support’. He wore a T-shirt with the same words and a ‘Make America Great Again’ hat, invoking the iconic Republican slogan.
As he got up to address, Musk reaffirmed his position as ‘tech support’ and reported that DOGE was busy trying to ‘fix the government computer systems’. He went on to disclose that he had been receiving ‘a lot of death threats’ as a result of the kind of work he was doing, which had seen hundreds of employees lose their jobs, CNN added.
