US Vice President JD Vance denied reports of Elon Musk leaving his government role, confirming he’ll remain an advisor. Vance also touched on efforts to cut government spending and the upcoming decision on TikTok’s future in the US.
US Vice President JD Vance has dismissed reports suggesting that controversial billionaire Elon Musk will soon leave his government position, stating that his work is far from finished. Vance told Fox News that while Musk's six-month government role will end as scheduled, he will remain an advisor to both Vance and President Trump. Vance also defended Musk’s efforts to reduce government spending, highlighting his work on addressing what Musk had identified as fraudulent Social Security payments—though Musk’s claims, such as people hundreds of years old receiving benefits, were later revealed to be the result of computer errors. Despite facing criticism for his remarks on Social Security, Musk continues to advocate for reducing what he calls a "Ponzi scheme."
In addition, Vance discussed ongoing concerns about TikTok, hinting that the White House would soon announce a decision regarding the app's future in the US. Vance confirmed that the government is working to balance national security with the need to maintain access to the platform, particularly given its popularity among young people for news. The deadline for TikTok's Chinese parent company to divest or face a potential ban is approaching, following a Supreme Court ruling that upheld legislation mandating the app’s sale.
