If you thought the Dakota Johnson-Chris Martin split was the heartbreak of the week, hold on to your black MAGA hat, because we’re witnessing The Great Divorce.
The long-predicted separation of President Donald Trump and Elon Musk is here. Love-blind optimists always prayed that the world’s most powerful man and the world’s richest man could keep their curious bromance alive, and the teary-eyed, televised Oval Office farewell that Elon received on Friday seemed to suggest there was hope for these political darlings.
But guess what… love stinks!
Reality hit harder than Brigitte Macron‘s double-face palm on Thursday, as Trump lashed out at his ex-Lassie in defense of his Big Beautiful Bill, which was apparently too damn ugly for Musk.
The Rocket-man exploded over debt-busting legislation as a slap in the face to his cost-cutting at DOGE. And when Trump and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz (or as Joe Biden calls him, ‘Angela Merkel‘) sat for a chit-chat, the subject of you-know-who came up and Trump went full Mean Girl on his former First Buddy.
‘Elon and I had a great relationship.’ Had? Uh oh, I thought. ‘I don’t know if we will anymore.’
Oh no, mom and dad are fighting!
Is this the part where dad tells us nothing will change and he and mom are still best friends? Nope! This is where mom takes all of dad’s stuff, throws it on the front lawn and sets it on fire.
Love-blind optimists prayed that the world’s most powerful man and the world’s richest man could keep their curious bromance alive, and the teary-eyed, televised Oval Office farewell that Elon received on Friday seemed to suggest that there was hope for these political darlings.
‘Elon and I had a great relationship.’ Had? Uh oh, I thought. ‘I don’t know if we will anymore.’ Oh no, mom and dad are fighting! (Trump is pictured on June 5 as he made remarks about Musk).
Trump accused Musk of attacking his BBB (the acronym for Big Beautiful Legislation is cuter in my honest opinion) purely to protect electric vehicle subsidies for Telsa. And Elon essentially called him a liar.
Then, things escalated further:
‘Time to drop the really big bomb,’ he wrote on X. ‘@realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!’
Sorry, kids. But daddy’s not coming home… EVER!
The reaction from Trump-loving Muskians online is now progressing through the seven stages of grief, with most stuck on denial at this early junction. So I decided to call a fiscally responsible Republican to get the truth of this lover’s spat.
‘Elon was never in this for EV tax credits, his dance with politicians has cost him way more money than it ever made him. And he knew that going in,’ Kentucky Republican Congressman Thomas Massie told me.
‘So many politicians get into politics for their own personal benefit, and I think that’s why they have a hard time imagining somebody like Elon judging a bill for what’s good for his wallet instead of what’s good for the country.’
This Kentucky boy has been reposting Musk’s objections to Trump’s BBB and he’ll almost certainly face a Trump-backed primary challenger. But he’s ticked off MAGA world in the past, and even though he agrees with most of Trump’s agenda he gives zero Fs if he lives in Donald’s long, cold shadow.
And if you think that was blunt, Massie was just getting started.
‘I hope Elon stays engaged in politics,’ he said. ‘I think he’s learning he needs to be involved in primary elections instead of the general elections, because not all Republicans are created equal.’
Trump accused Musk of only wanting to protect electric vehicle subsidies for Telsa that Trump’s BBB (the acronym for Big Beautiful Legislation is cuter in my honest opinion) and Elon essentially called him a liar.
Well, if that didn’t just send a chill down the spine of free-spending GOP phony-baloneys then I don’t know what will. Imagine Uncle Elon dropping $50 million on your Republican House primary race and throwing his weight behind support his fiscally-conservative visions.
I had to ask Massie if he was so enthusiastic about Elon because he hoped the bad-tempered billionaire might throw some cash his way to reach the Upper chamber. He quickly shut that down, saying, ‘I’m not running for Senate, that’s the same circus with different clowns. I’m not doing it.’
In a MAGA world where it’s a lot easier to go along to get along and stay under the radar, Massie is still confident in Elon Musk’s judgment when it comes to federal spending and the necessary cutting that leads to economic growth. He said of the fresh Trump/Musk feud, ‘I’ll trust the guy who can land rockets backwards to do the math more than I trust the politicians in DC.’
Sounds to me like Massie may be moving in on Trump’s old flame.
How uplifting!
Maybe you know your favorite celebrity’s In-N-Out order (mine is a #2, protein style, whole grilled onions, add pickles), but do you know their plastic surgery order?
After a TikTok’er complimented Kylie Jenner’s nice knockers, she responded with alarming candor: ‘445cc, moderate profile, half under the muscle!!!!! Silicone!!!’
Hold the mayo, I think I’m going heave.

As if yak-happy dumdum Karine Jean-Pierre wasn’t useless enough when she was a bumbling propagandist for President Potato Head, now she’s spinning a tell-all book that promises to finally tell the truth.
She wouldn’t know the truth if it was wearing a neon-orange blazer and matching lipstick.
Reportedly, KJP was also eyeing a full-time gig on ABC News’ The View, but they couldn’t be bothered to call her back. Apparently, they were full of verbally incontinent blowhards. But, hey, I hear MSNBC has some vacancies for another self-serving, bubbleheaded Lefty.
Ship-show
Antisemitic Swede Greta Thunberg has traded her climate caterwauling grift for a ticket on a ‘freedom flotilla’ that she’s floating straight to Gaza with a band of anti-Zionist zealots.
Has this screeching Gen Z’er thought about what would happen if she docked in Port Jihadi?
Well, if Hamas does take Greta hostage Trump can negotiate her release.
Lips aren’t sealed
On Reality TV alum Kristin Cavallari’s ‘Let’s Be Honest’ podcast said admitted to a tryst with dreamy actor Glen Powell in Greece.
She says he ‘literally ran into’ her and they ended up ‘dry humping.’ I hate it when that happens.
When asked for comment, Powell couldn’t be reached because he was dousing himself in lime.
