Elon Musk and Stephen Miller unfollow each other on X amid rumors over Katie Miller.
Elon Musk and Stephen Miller do not follow each other on X, the social media platform that Elon Musk owns, after Stephen Miller's wife Katie Miller chose to walk out of the White House with Elon Musk to work for him full time.
This happened just before the big blow-up between Elon Musk and President Donald Trump Thursday and also hints that this was brewing for quite some time. Stephen Miller is one of Trump's most trusted and visible aides and the Millers even got married at Trump Tower, Washington -- such is their bond with Trump.
The 'divorce' of Elon Musk and Donald Trump started with the disenchantment between the Elon world and the Trumpworld and that started with the Millers as they were part of both.
Stephen Miller and Katie Miller were always with Elon Musk as they were Musk's point persons in Washington. A Wall Street Journal report confirmed that the husband and wife spent extensive time with Elon Musk -- even outside the White House.
Katie Miller was Elon Musk's spokesperson in the administration, serving as the bridge between the Department of Government Efficiency and the administration. Whenever Elon Musk was in Washington, Katie was there with him.
Rumors swirled that they were a throuple until Katie Miller chose to walk out of the White House with Elon Musk.
What happened between the Millers and Musk?
Neither of them issued any public statement regarding their relationship. Katie Miller posted a screenshot that said DOGE is a lifestyle like Buddhism making it clear that she was going with Elon Musk to work for him. While the personal equation among the three of them remains uncertain, Elon Musk and Stephen Miller unfollowed each other on X, it is confirmed.
Stephen Miller has been defending Trump's 'Big, Beautiful Bill' which is the bone of contention between Trump and Musk.
But Miller did not name Musk in his angry defense, though used Musk's word 'pork' in his counter to defend the bill. "The only 'new' spending in the bill is to defend the homeland and deport the illegals—paid for by raising visa fees. All the other provisions? Massive spending cuts. There is no 'pork' in the bill. Just campaign promises," Stephen Miller wrote.
Katie's departure created friction amid White House officials as Katie was reportedly on Musk's payroll the entire time, though her official role was that of a special government employee.

U.S. lawmaker tells Pakistan delegation to eliminate ‘vile' terror group Jaish-e-Mohammed
A senior American lawmaker has told a visiting Pakistani delegation, led by Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, that the country should do "all it can' to eliminate the 'vile' terrorist group Jaish-e-Mohammed as well as ensure protection of religious minorities. The Pakistani delegation met Congressman Brad Sherman on Thursday (June 5) , timing their visit to the U.S. capital around the same time as a multi-party delegation of Indian parliamentarians led by Congress MP Shashi Tharoor is in Washington DC. The all-party delegation is briefing key interlocutors about Operation Sindoor in the wake of the Pahalgam terror attack and India's strong resolve to fight terrorism emanating from Pakistan. In a post on X, Sherman said that he 'emphasised to the Pakistani delegation the importance of combatting terrorism, and in particular, the group Jaish-e-Mohammed, who murdered my constituent Daniel Pearl in 2002'. During my discussion with the #Pakistan delegation yesterday, I raised the critical issue of water for Sindh. The Indus River is the lifeline for tens of millions of Pakistanis, and protecting that water resource is vital. I am also very concerned to hear of unrest in the city… — Congressman Brad Sherman (@BradSherman) June 6, 2025 Terrorist Omar Saeed Sheikh was convicted of orchestrating the 2002 kidnapping and murder of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl. Mr. Sherman said Pearl's family continues to live in his district and 'Pakistan should do all it can to eliminate this vile group and combat terrorism in the region'. Mr. Bhutto also landed in the U.S. at the same time as the Tharoor-led delegation. Mr. Bhutto met UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres with his delegation as well as Security Council Ambassadors in New York, and later travelled to Washington in Pakistan's bid to internationalise the conflict with India as well as the Kashmir issue but instead got instructed to deal with terrorism emanating from its soil. The U.S. lawmaker also told the Pakistani delegation that the protection of religious minorities in Pakistan remains an important issue. "Christians, Hindus and Ahmadiyya Muslims living in Pakistan must be allowed to practice their faith and participate in the democratic system without fear of violence, persecution, discrimination, or an unequal justice system.' Sherman further urged the Pakistani delegation to relay to their government the need to free Dr Shakil Afridi, who continues to languish in prison for helping the United States kill Osama bin Laden. 'Freeing Dr Afridi represents an important step in bringing closure for victims of 9/11,' he said. Afridi is a Pakistani physician who helped the CIA run a polio vaccination programme in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province to collect DNA samples of bin Laden's family. Afridi was arrested by Pakistani authorities shortly after the American raid on bin Laden's compound in Abbottabad in May 2011. In 2012, a Pakistani court sentenced Afridi to 33 years in prison.
