Russian official takes jibe at US after Trump-Musk spat: ‘Why can't we all just get along?'

In the aftermath of US President Donald Trump and Tesla CEO Elon Musk's spat, a close aide of Russian President Vladimir Putin, Kirill Dmitriev and took a dig at the public falling out. Dmietriev took to X to use the phrase 'Why can't we all just get along?', which was used by Rodney King after he was beaten by LA police officers during riots in the US in 1991. He further said, 'In 2024, Elon Musk bet his entire $300B+ fortune on supporting Trump and helping save the US. Today, Tesla crashed 14%. $150B gone. $30B wiped from Musk's net worth. No hedge. No fear. Just conviction. Tomorrow?' Also Read: Donald Trump plans to 'get rid' of his red Tesla' after feud with Elon Musk He also asked the Musk-owned platform's AI chatbot Grok what needed to happen for Trump and the billionaire entrepreneur to reconcile. Grok suggested private talks and public apologies for personal attacks. 'However, their escalating conflict and public barbs suggest reconciliation is unlikely soon.' Dmitry Rogozin, former head of Russia's space agency, Roscosmos, on Thursday had invited Musk to flee the United States and join in the war on Russia's side.

If you encounter insurmountable problems in the US, come to us and become one of us — a 'Bars-Sarmat' fighter,' he wrote on X. He added, 'Here you will find reliable comrades and complete freedom of technical creativity.' The offer was echoed by the first deputy chairman of the international affairs committee of the lower house of parliament, Dmitry Novikov, who told the Tass state news agency, as quoted by The Washington Post, that Russia could offer asylum to Musk 'if he needs it.' On Thursday, during a press briefing in the Oval Office, Donald Trump said that he was "very disappointed" after his former aide and top donor, Elon Musk, criticised his "big, beautiful" spending bill before Congress. Trump also suggested the Musk missed being in the White House and had 'Trump derangement syndrome", reported AP. Later, Musk hit back at Trump on X, claiming that the US President was mentioned in government documents on disgraced financier and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Trump escalated the fight, suggesting that Musk's multibillion-dollar government contracts, including those used for launching rockets and the Starlink satellite service, should be terminated to save money for the federal government.

From peace talks to asylum, Russia has a laugh as Trump and Elon Musk feud

Senior Russian official Dmitry Medvedev on Friday poked fun at the increasingly bitter public feud between US President Donald Trump and tech billionaire Elon Musk with an offer to mediate peace between the two."We are ready to facilitate the conclusion of a peace deal between D and E for a reasonable fee and to accept Starlink shares as payment," Medvedev, a former Russian president and prime minister, posted on fight, guys!" he added, tongue firmly in cheek. Medvedev's quip scored a laughing face emoji from Musk, who owns satellite internet service Starlink. The Russian leader's post was aimed at the spiralling war of words between the political allies-turned-foes. A close ally of Vladimir Putin, Medvedev currently serves as deputy chair of Russia's Security Council. His remarks came amid glee and schadenfreude among the Russian leadership at the public fallout between the two American currently trying to broker peace between Russia and Ukraine, has clashed with Musk over criticism of his administration's "big, beautiful" tax and spending Tesla and SpaceX CEO, once a Trump backer and head of the newly minted Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), termed the legislation a "disgusting abomination". After his White House exit, he escalated the feud by accusing the two-time President of being tied to the Jeffrey Epstein Novikov, first deputy chairman of the State Duma Committee on International Affairs, said Russia is willing to offer Musk political asylum if needed."I think that Musk has a completely different game, [so] he will not need any political asylum, although if he did, Russia, of course, could provide it," Novikov told state news agency senator Dmitry Rogozin echoed the sentiment."Elon, don't be upset! If you encounter insurmountable problems in the US, come to us and become one of us," Rogozin tweeted. "Here you will find reliable comrades and complete freedom of technical creativity." The Trump-Musk rift has grown steadily in recent days. Just days ago, the US President gifted Musk a golden key during a White House event honouring his work at DOGE. But relations soured quickly following Musk's public rebuke and has since said he has no plans to speak to Musk and indicated that a review of the billionaire's substantial government contracts is in the offing."We'll take a look at everything," the President said. "It's a lot of money."Tune InMust Watch

Russian lawmaker says can offer political asylum to Elon Musk amid Trump feud

A senior Russian lawmaker on Friday said that Russia could offer political asylum to tech billionaire Elon Musk amid his ongoing public feud with US President Donald Trump, though the Kremlin has distanced itself from the dispute, saying that 'this is an internal matter of the United States. We are in no way going to interfere in this, or comment on it in any way.'advertisementThe rift between Musk and Trump, who were seen as close allies during and after the 2024 US presidential election, intensified this week, on June 5, as they traded accusations in a huge public spat on social media. The move followed the Tesla and SpaceX founder's harsh criticism of Trump's 'One Big Beautiful Bill', which Musk claimed would deepen the US national debt.'If he did [need political asylum], of course, Russia could offer it,' Dmitry Novikov, first deputy chairman of the State Duma's International Affairs Committee, told state-run TASS. However, Novikov added that Musk is 'playing a completely different game' and likely wouldn't seek asylum. On the other hand, Russian Presidential Spokesman Dmitry Peskov yesterday declined to weigh in on the spat when asked for a comment, saying, 'This is a domestic issue of the United States, and we don't intend to interfere.'advertisement'We're confident the US president will handle this situation on his own,' Peskov added. The asylum offer, though largely symbolic, recalls previous cases such as NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden, who was granted asylum in Russia in 2013, and British blogger Graham Phillips, who also received protection from resigned last week as head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), a controversial federal agency created to rein in government spending. His departure followed escalating clashes with the White House over fiscal policy and budget split quickly turned public and personal. Musk accused President Trump of reckless spending and claimed that without his $300 million campaign donation and support, Trump would never have won re-election in 2024. In a series of sharp online posts, Musk backed efforts to impeach the president, criticised Trump's import tariffs and warned that the US economy was headed for a recession in the second half of 2025. Trump hit back, accusing Musk of abandoning his duties at DOGE and saying the billionaire 'went crazy.' The president also threatened to revoke all federal contracts and subsidies linked to Musk's fallout has already sent shockwaves through financial markets, with Tesla shares tumbling sharply on Friday and Musk's threat to pull out of a key US space program has heightened tensions further.
