Musk, at the center of intense rumors in recent hours, appeared with an eye injury at the White House.
A press conference
At a White House press conference, Donald Trump and Elon Musk appeared together despite the announcement earlier this week of Musk's departure from the administration and the reportedly tense relationship between the two men.
The mysterious black eye
The event immediately drew attention not for its political content, but for the mysterious black eye sported by Musk.
His son
While social media was imploding, a journalist finally asked Musk about the origin of his injury: he replied that his five-year-old son was responsible.
The scandals
As the scandals and rumors intensify, particularly those linked to an alleged excessive drug use, as reported by The New York Times in a shocking article published over the last few hours, Elon Musk is reportedly preparing his return to the helm of his companies.
Persistent rumours
But there is more. According to several outlets, Elon Musk would be leaving the administration with Katie Miller, wife of White House Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, who was also present in the Oval Office during the conference. This unexpected turn of event would only fuels more doubts about his departure, as well as more speculation about this mysterious black eye.
