Kanye West urges Elon Musk and Donald Trump to reconcile amid EXPLOSIVE public feud; sparks meme fest among Twitterati
Kanye West
has stepped into the increasingly bitter feud between Tesla CEO
Elon Musk
and former U.S. President
Donald Trump
, urging the once-allied powerhouses to reconcile.
In a post on his Twitter handle, the rapper pleaded with the president and the billionaire, to call a truce saying, "Broooos please noooooo.
We love you both so much.'
The feud between Musk and Trump escalated over the past week after the Tesla founder publicly criticised what he described as Trump's 'big, beautiful bill' and urged voters to reject any Republican lawmakers who supported it.
Trump responded in kind, writing on Truth Social that he was 'very disappointed in Elon' and speculating that the billionaire had 'just gone CRAZY!' The former president went a step further, threatening to terminate Musk's lucrative federal contracts.
"The easiest way to save money in our Budget, Billions and Billions of Dollars, is to terminate Elon's Governmental Subsidies and Contracts,' Trump wrote.
In retaliation, Musk lobbed a serious allegation, claiming that Trump appears in sealed case files linked to the late sex offender
Jeffrey Epstein
. 'Time to drop the really big bomb: [Donald Trump] is in the Epstein files,' Musk posted. 'That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!'
Amid the back-and-forth messages from the two men, Kanye stepped in to play peacemaker.
A longtime Trump supporter he wrote 'Fk anybody who don't love Trump. You're dumb.'
Reacting to the posts from the three, fans took to their handles to react humorously with memes. Linking the feud to a 'divorce', one asked, "Who gets custody of Kanye in the Donald Trump v Elon Musk divorce?"

After AOC, Savannah Guthrie says Trump-Musk feud is ‘giving 7th grade girl' energy
Savannah Guthrie has shared her brutally honest thoughts about Elon Musk's explosive fallout with Donald Trump. During Friday's episode of Today, the 53-year-old co-host said that their ongoing feud is 'giving 7th-grade girl' energy. 'First of all, to just use TikTok language, it's giving 7th grade girl,' Guthrie said, adding, 'This back and forth, online, and from the Oval Office.' Co-host Craig Melvin laughed at her choice of words, while Meet the Press anchor Kristen Welker said, 'Savannah, you hit the nail on the head.' Also Read: Elon Musk's trans daughter Vivian reacts to his feud with Trump: 'I love…' Guthrie's scathing remark came as Good Morning America's Jonathan Karl revealed a June 6 conversation with Trump, where the president said he is 'not particularly interested' in speaking with Musk. The political correspondent noted that Trump called Musk, 'A man who has lost his mind.' The Today co-host is not the only one to publicly criticise the ongoing spat between Trump and the Tesla CEO. Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez told Spectrum 1 News on Thursday, saying, 'Oh man, the girls are fighting, aren't they?' Also Read: Jake Paul slams Donald Trump and Elon Musk for 'diss tweeting each other' 'You know, I would say that this was something that was a long time coming, where we've been seeing that these two huge egos were not long for being together in this world as friends,' Ocasio-Cortez went on, adding, 'And so I think this breakup, we've been seeing a long time coming. But we'll see what the impacts are of it legislatively.' Earlier this week, Musk wrote on X, 'I'm sorry, but I just can't stand it anymore. This massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination. Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong. You know it.'

'Census delay no accident, delimitation not a coincidence', says Stalin
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister and Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) president MK Stalin on Friday accused the BJP-led central government of deliberately delaying the national Census and orchestrating the delimitation process with a hidden agenda. Calling the Census delay 'no accident' and the delimitation exercise 'no coincidence,' he said, 'The danger I warned of is at our doorstep.' In a post on social media, he alleged: 'There is a sinister design in how the BJP-led Union Government is implementing the national Census and the subsequent delimitation. Developed states, especially in the non-Hindi speaking South, which followed population control norms, will now be punished.' He argued that states which disregarded population control for years would be rewarded with additional seats in Parliament. This, he said, distorts the federal structure and unfairly benefits neglect over progress. Stalin noted that he had already 'warned about this design' and cited senior Congress leader P Chidambaram's detailed explanation of 'how this sleight of hand is unfolding.' He said it was time to remain vigilant and prepare strategies to defend the South's representation. 'The 2027 Census will form the basis for the next delimitation, replacing the 1971 data. This gives the Union BJP government the means to restructure parliamentary representation to its advantage, at the cost of the southern states,' he alleged. While the Ministry of Home Affairs has stated that the concerns of affected states will be considered, Stalin described such assurances as vague. He insisted that the situation calls for a clear commitment in Parliament and the introduction of a Constitutional amendment. He added: 'Just look at what happened after Article 370 was abrogated. The Union government spoke of restoring statehood to Jammu and Kashmir. Elections were held. Assurances were given in the Supreme Court. Yet, Jammu and Kashmir remains a Union Territory. This is the track record of BJP we are dealing with.' Stalin warned that if delimitation is carried out using the 2027 Census, the democratic influence of the southern states would be severely diminished. He also criticised the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK), saying, 'Betrayers like the AIADMK choose to kneel before the BJP for their political survival,' but that the people of Tamil Nadu, under the DMK's leadership, would not allow the state to suffer for its developmental success.

Elon Musk's most valued venture faces shutdown, and the ripple effects could transform America's future
Why is Elon Musk's $4 billion AI supercomputer under fire? How are local communities being affected by the xAI facility? What do experts say about the pollution from the turbines? Why is the shutdown of Musk's AI project becoming a political flashpoint? Live Events What's the response from local authorities and Musk's team? What does this mean for America's AI future and Musk's empire? FAQs: (You can now subscribe to our (You can now subscribe to our Economic Times WhatsApp channel Elon Musk's newest supercomputer, the $4 billion Colossus facility in Tennessee, is now under threat of shutdown amid growing health and legal concerns. This high-tech center powers Musk's AI company, xAI, which aims to compete with giants like OpenAI and Google. But less than a year after it began operating, local residents in Boxtown, South Memphis, are reporting serious health problems linked to toxic fumes coming from the site. As the feud between Musk and President Trump heats up, the future of this crucial project—and Musk's AI ambitions—could hang in the inside a former Electrolux factory near the Mississippi River, Musk's Colossus supercomputer fuels his Grok AI software. However, the facility's rapid launch came without public hearings or environmental reviews—steps required by federal law. The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) says the gas turbines powering the site release nitrogen oxides (NOx), pollutants that worsen smog and cause respiratory issues. Locals say this pollution is linked to rising cases of asthma, cancer, and other health problems in their community. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) has called on Shelby County officials to shut down the facility and enforce pollution in Boxtown, a predominantly Black neighborhood, are suffering. Isabel Whitaker, a mother, shared how her 12-year-old son's 'seasonal cough' escalated to breathing difficulties, requiring multiple emergency room visits. Easter Knox, a longtime Boxtown resident, said her husband was hospitalized for severe asthma this spring, and she herself lives with COPD that worsens with the polluted air. The NAACP reports cancer rates here are four times higher than the national average. These health emergencies come as Shelby County already struggles with one of the highest pediatric asthma hospitalization rates in the US—1,996 ER visits per 100,000 children groups and the EPA confirm that the 35 methane gas turbines onsite release between 1,200 and 2,000 tons of nitrogen oxides yearly. These pollutants contribute to smog, which triggers coughing, wheezing, and worsens lung diseases like asthma. Despite xAI's claim that only 15 turbines are operational, thermal imaging taken in March showed all 35 turbines glowing red, meaning they are all running. None of the turbines have federally-required pollution controls, violating clean air laws. The Southern Environmental Law Center and American Lung Association warn this toxic mix is making Memphis's already poor air quality even ongoing feud with President Trump has already led to the cancellation of several federal projects linked to Musk's companies. Now, the health crisis at xAI's supercomputer site has given Trump's administration more reason to intervene. The NAACP's director of environmental justice, Abre' Conner, emphasizes that Musk must follow federal, state, and local laws, just like everyone else. The controversy threatens not just Musk's AI ambitions but also SpaceX contracts and Tesla's market stability. As this high-stakes battle plays out, the future of Colossus could influence America's place in the global AI Light Gas and Water (MLGW), the utility company providing power to the site, pushed back on claims that it allowed illegal emissions, saying the Shelby County Health Department was responsible for the facility's approval. However, the health department has been slow to act, only holding a public hearing after nearly a year of community pressure. At that meeting, a representative from xAI reportedly left before hearing residents' concerns. Despite violations and calls for penalties, the supercomputer continues to operate, worsening local air quality and health issues. Both Musk and local officials have yet to provide clear is central to Musk's plan to challenge AI leaders like OpenAI and Google by powering the Grok AI software. The estimated $4 billion facility, with plans to spend tens of billions more, symbolizes Musk's ambition to reshape the AI landscape. But if shutdown orders come through due to environmental violations and public health threats, Musk's AI progress could stall. Coupled with the political tension between Musk and Trump, the situation highlights the fragile balance between innovation, community health, and regulatory oversight in America's AI the xAI facility's gas turbines release harmful pollutants linked to health problems in the local emissions from the turbines are increasing asthma and cancer rates among residents near the facility.
