Elon Musk is leaving the Trump administration, but also maybe not. The president wants him around and is very impressed with his work with the Department of Government Efficiency. That stint led to the Tesla CEO becoming one of the most hated men on the Left, which he took in stride. Trump hinted at a new role for Mr. Musk:
.@POTUS: “Elon’s really not leaving. He’s gonna be back…”

He attended an Oval Office gaggle with the press about his work and future projects. Like Trump, Musk had no time for The New York Times’ nonsense.
When asked about one of their reports, Musk snarkily wondered if this was the same New York Times that got a Pulitzer for its fake news reporting on the Russian collusion hoax. He said the publication should return that award as a beaming Trump looked on.
