Somebody must have known before yesterday that Musk was taking so much Ketamine that he can’t pee right.
Elon Musk’s use of ketamine was so intense during the 2024 campaign that he complained it was negatively affecting his bladder function, according to a New York Times report detailing the billionaire’s drug use as he joined President Donald Trump’s circle last year.
The Times paints a picture of a man caught in an erratic cycle of substance abuse and family drama. While Musk has previously spoken of using ketamine as a scheduled prescription treatment for depression, sources who spoke to the Times say his use of the anesthetic was frequent — almost daily —and regularly in combination with other drugs while in the throes of campaign season. The billionaire also took Ecstasy and psychedelic mushrooms as he campaigned for Trump, and traveled with a box of daily medication, including Adderall, according to a photo obtained by the Times.
It’s unknown whether Musk’s drug use continued into his time leading the so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE)’s teardown of the federal government, although he exhibited erratic behavior throughout his time in the White House.
Musk also had a black eye at his press conference with Trump at the Oval Office yesterday, something a drug addict would never have gotten by stumbling around and falling on his face. He claims it was the result of “horsing around” with one of his kids.
Anyone who thinks that the press didn’t have enough evidence to write about Musk’s addictions before today, or who thinks that Musk is really stepping away from DOGE, needs to have their head examined.
