Elon Musk aimed his sting at the leading adviser Donald Trump. “It's a snake”
“It's a snake,” Elon Musk wrote briefly on his social networking platform X, responding to the article “New York Post”, which found information that GRA, acting as the director of the White House staff office, was not properly checked.
According to “New York Post”, Gor did not submit the required documents to obtain a permanent security certificate, despite the fact that he himself manages the verification process of thousands of employees of President Trump. The White House, however, maintains that GOR has an active security certificate and “fully meets” the necessary requirements.
– Mr. Gor fully warns all applicable ethical and legal obligations. His security certificate is important, and all insinuations that he does not have such a certificate are untrue – said the White House adviser David Warrington.

Vice President JD Vance also stood on the side of Gora, praising his “efforts to ensure that the president's government was planted by the devoted, guided by the supporters of the America First policy”, adding to the certainty that he “did a great job and continue it.”
The tensions between these two advisers have been growing for a long time, and Musk refused to cooperate with Gorze after a March meeting of the office, during which the billionaire clashed with other members of the office on cuts in their agencies, which prompted Trump to clarify that the agency bosses have power over their departments, not Musk from Doge.
Shooting point and last nail in the casket
The situation, however, reached a boiling point when Gor helped with the withdrawal of Jared Isaacman's nomination as the head of NASA, i.e. a candidate supported by Elon Musk.
The decision to withdraw Isaacman's nomination seemed to be a drop that poured a spell of bitterness for Musk. The former adviser to Trump soon after he began a series of attacks on social media as president and the “great, beautiful act” he forced in Congress.
At that time, Trump pointed to his decision to withdraw Isaacman's nomination as a factor motivating Muska to attack the president.
The fight, which took place just after the announcement of Musk's departure from government positions, was the last nail in the coffin of the relationship between the president and his once “first friend”.
However, after a huge row in the voltage network, they seem to calm down. Trump said that he did not “eat any injuries” to his former ally, and Musk published an apology on the portal X, claiming that he “went too far” in attacks on the president during their dispute.
Trump was particularly trying to underestimate this argument, because the White House was afraid that the public quarrel distracted attention from administration priorities.
