Elon Musk Unfollows Stephen Miller on X as He Takes His Wife
After days of unsubtle back-and-forth on X, Musk has now unfollowed Stephen Miller. The change in status occurred some time before 1 p.m. on Thursday, when X account Big Tech Alert publicized its discovery. The news comes one week after Musk reportedly poached Miller's wife, Katie Miller, who left DOGE to work for him full time. However, as of 3:55 p.m. on Thursday, Miller still follows Musk, meaning the sudden unfollowing is one-sided—at least for now. The unfollowing may be one-sided, but it's hardly unexpected. Miller has spent most of his time doing everything he could to thwart the former DOGE administrator, staunchly defending Trump's Big Beautiful Bill after Musk called it an 'abomination.' Without naming Musk explicitly, Miller took to X on Wednesday to correct his criticisms of the 'Big Beautiful Bill' after Musk told reporters he felt the bill undermined DOGE's work. Miller also called the bill 'the most essential piece of legislation... in generations.' Of course, there's also a personal undercurrent to their professional tension thanks to Katie Miller's career change. According to CNN, Katie is working in a communications capacity, helping Musk to arrange 'interviews unrelated to his time in government.' She's also on X, where she recently changed her header image to a photo of a SpaceX rocket, and responded with a heart emoji to a post asking, 'Who here loves Stephen Miller?' However, Musk's reasoning behind unfollowing Miller may not be personal. He also recently unfollowed conservative pundit Charlie Kirk, per Big Tech Alert. Rather than an escalation of his feud with Miller, Musk's recent following choices may be part of the Tesla CEO's sudden push to burn his bridges with the White House since departing DOGE on May 30. In the past two days, Musk has unleashed near-constant tweets condemning the Big Beautiful Bill and later, the president himself. Just minutes before followers noticed he'd unfollowed Miller, Musk began firing off an ongoing series of posts in response to Trump's comment that he was 'very disappointed' in him for opposing the Big Beautiful Bill. In one post, Musk wrote, 'Without me, Trump never would have won the election.' In a second, he added, 'Such ingratitude.' Musk has only gotten more extreme with his post-breakup comments in the hours since unfollowing Miller. Most recently, he took to X to accuse the president of being 'in the Epstein files,' concluding his rant with, 'Have a nice day, DJT!'

Three killed in 'massive' Russian strikes on Ukraine, Zelensky says
Russia launched large-scale drone and missile strikes on Ukraine's capital and other parts of the country early on Friday, local officials said. At least three people were killed and 49 injured in the strikes, according to Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky. The aerial raids targeted Kyiv, as well as the city of Lutsk and the Ternophil region in the north-west of the country. The attack came after Russian President Vladimir Putin warned US President Donald Trump he would respond to Ukraine's recent strikes on Russian airbases. "As of now, three deaths have been confirmed - all of them were employees of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine," Zelensky said. He said the attack used more than 400 drones and more than 40 missiles, and the number of people injured "may increase". In an earlier statement, Kyiv's Mayor Vitali Klitschko said four people had been killed in the country's capital. Air raid alerts were in place in the capital, as well as the cities of Kharkiv, Sumy and Luhansk. Kyiv's train system was disrupted after shelling damaged metro tracks. Outside of the capital, Ternopil's military chief Vyacheslav Negoda said Friday's strike was the "most massive air attack on our region to date". Mayor of Ternopil, Igor Polishchuk, said five people were wounded in the attack and there was damage to homes, schools and a government facility. In Lutsk, five people were injured in an attack using 15 drones and six missiles, according to mayor Ihor Polishchuk. Meanwhile, the Russian defence ministry said its air defences shot down 174 Ukrainian drones overnight in parts of Russia and occupied Crimea. The ministry said Neptune anti-ship cruise missiles were also intercepted over the Black Sea. Russia's latest attack on Ukraine comes days after Kyiv launched its biggest long-range drone strike on at least 40 Russian warplanes at four military bases. Zelensky said 117 drones were used in the so-called "Spider's Web" operation by the SBU security service, striking "34% of [Russia's] strategic cruise missile carriers". Moscow had previously said that military options were "on the table" for its response to Ukraine's attack.
