Elon Musk's social media post joking about the lack of assassination attempts on President Biden and Vice President Harris drew criticism for inciting violence, leading to his deletion of the tweet.
The White House condemned Musk's remarks, emphasizing that 'this rhetoric is irresponsible' and that 'violence should never be encouraged or joked about,' insisting there should be no place for political violence.
After deleting his controversial post, Musk reflected that 'just because I say something to a group and they laugh doesn't mean it's going to be all that hilarious as a post on X.'
The US Secret Service acknowledged awareness of Musk’s post but refrained from commenting, stating they investigate all threats related to their protectees.
