  • Black eye

    From Alex Galiyev@1:129/14.1 to All on Sat Jun 7 16:39:52 2025
    Hello All!

    It has been revealed who gave Musk a black eye - it was U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, according to The Washington Post, citing former Trump advisor Steve Bannon.

    According to Bannon, Musk and Bessent got into a fight right inside the White House in April. It all started with accusations: the businessman had allegedly promised to find a trillion dollars in budget savings but came up with only a hundred billion.

    After that, Bessent called Musk a fraud. Musk shoved the Treasury Secretary in the chest with his shoulder - and got punched in the eye in return.

    Trump said: "This has gone too far."

    This could be true, but how does Steve Bannon know this? Was he there?
