President Donald Trump on Monday said he hopes claims that Elon Musk brought drugs into the White House were not true, but he said he “really” didn’t know if they were. “I really don’t know,” Trump said.

US President Donald Trump has broken his silence on claims of his one-time First Friend, Elon Musk, using drugs while leading the administration's initiative to slash government spending as Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) chief.

Musk's Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, installed a Starlink Wi-Fi terminal at the White House in March – despite warnings from security officials that doing so could open the administration to potential data leak and espionage risks.
