The Secret Service has launched a probe into an X post by Elon Musk in which he tweeted that “no one is even trying” to kill Kamala Harris or Joe Biden.
The tech billionaire deleted the post on his X platform and passed it off as a “joke.” However, the White House did not find it funny and instead called it “irresponsible.”
“Violence should only be condemned, never encouraged or joked about,” the White House said in a statement. Now the Secret Service is involved.
That should go well, since the Secret Service are renowned for having a good sense of humour about this sort of thing.
OTOH they did delete all those Jan 06 text messages so I no longer regard them as objective in the performance of their duties.
At the end of the day, they’re still cops.
