Did Elon Musk, Katie Miller quit DOGE? 'Thank you' note sparks speculation  - Hindustan Times

The drama between Tesla CEO Elon Musk and top White House adviser Stephen Miller has reached new heights after a scandalous claim by Musk's prized artificial intelligence chatbot, Grok. The allegation, which took the internet by storm, suggested that Musk had brazenly boasted about his personal relationship with Miller’s wife, Katie Miller. The claim stirred up heated debates and sparked social media uproar, but Musk quickly took to his platform, X (formerly Twitter), to refute the false narrative and expose Grok for spreading misinformation.

The controversy erupted when a screenshot allegedly showing Musk's boastful comment, “We will take back America. Just like I took your wife,” began circulating online. The viral image purportedly captured Musk's reply to Stephen Miller after a public statement by the adviser.

It claimed that Musk had taken a shot at Miller, taunting him about his wife’s shift in allegiance, leaving behind the White House for Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) following her husband's exit from his governmental role.

Musk immediately dismissed the screenshot as "fake" in a post on X, complete with a face palm emoji for dramatic effect. He responded to the viral uproar by saying, “No, it’s fake [for f—'s sake] I never posted this.” The rejection came after Grok, the chatbot Musk has championed as a competitor to ChatGPT, suggested the screenshot was a real post that had likely been deleted.

Musk publicly criticized Grok, fueling even more speculation about the controversial AI’s accuracy and trustworthiness.

Katie Miller, who had served as a spokesperson and senior advisor to the Department of Homeland Security, was a prominent figure within the White House. After her departure, she became part of Musk’s team, assisting with public relations and media arrangements related to SpaceX, Musk’s growing empire, and his endeavors outside the government.

 

But the internet had already started buzzing, speculating about her personal relationship with Musk, suggesting that her decision to follow him wasn’t just about career growth but perhaps also about an illicit romance.

The conjecture reached a fever pitch when social media users began drawing connections between the unusual exit from government service and Musk’s own public persona. There was even talk of a ‘throuple’ dynamic, suggesting that both Musk and Stephen Miller were somehow involved in the situation together.

The rumors centered around Katie Miller leaving her husband for Musk, causing a stir in both political and tech circles.

The origins of this speculation stemmed from a combination of Musk’s ongoing feud with President Donald Trump and his increasing public support for hardline stances. Last week, Musk ignited a firestorm on social media after publicly criticizing the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, a major piece of legislation championed by Miller.

Musk’s comments, which were seen as a shot at Trump’s policies, led to him unfollowing Stephen Miller on X, a clear sign of tension between the two influential figures. By Monday, however, Musk had refollowed Miller, leaving many to wonder if the relationship was being patched up behind the scenes.

Despite the online chatter, the real story behind Katie Miller’s departure from her White House post was far more straightforward. As a special government employee for the DOGE, her position wasn’t permanent. The timing of her shift to Musk’s team coincided with her tenure in the White House coming to an end.

Yet, social media couldn’t resist speculating that the move was more than just professional. The rumors quickly spread, with some observers even suggesting that Katie Miller was the latest addition to Musk’s "harem."

A viral tweet read, "If you think you’ve made poor life decisions, there is a woman who not only married Stephen Miller, she left him for Elon Musk." Another comment, from USA Today columnist Rex Huppke, quipped, "I read the words 'Stephen Miller' and 'throuple' then passed out for like 20 minutes. Has it stopped yet or are all the worst things imaginable still happening all at once?"

The social media commentary quickly gained traction, with a number of users playing off the idea that Musk’s power and influence made him an irresistible figure, even at the cost of destroying marriages.

The gossip surrounding Katie Miller, however, wasn’t limited to playful jabs. Some commenters were more serious in their analysis of Musk’s growing influence. James Palmer, deputy editor of Foreign Policy, sarcastically remarked, "Congratulations to Katie Miller for being literally the only woman in the world for whom joining Elon Musk’s harem would be a step up." The internet was alight with memes, jokes, and pointed remarks, making it clear that the narrative had evolved beyond Musk’s professional pursuits into something more sensational and salacious.

At the heart of this controversy lies the ever-complicated relationship between Musk, the billionaire entrepreneur with an increasingly public persona, and the political world. Musk has long been a vocal critic of certain government policies and leaders, particularly President Trump, whom he accused of making decisions that hurt the economy.

While Musk has enjoyed a large following on social media, his personal life and interactions with other political figures often create fodder for endless speculation.

As for the real story behind Katie Miller's decision to leave her role in the White House, sources have revealed that she was simply following her career aspirations and taking on a new professional challenge. Her role with Musk’s company involved public relations work and helping coordinate interviews that were unrelated to her government tenure.

The mainstream media, including CNN, reported that Miller had left the White House to join Musk’s team, but no credible reports have suggested any personal involvement beyond a professional collaboration.

In the wake of the controversy, Musk's AI chatbot Grok came under fire for perpetuating misleading information. Musk’s backing of Grok, which he has heralded as a serious contender against OpenAI’s ChatGPT, has now been questioned. Critics point to the fact that Grok, despite Musk’s advocacy, appears to have spread falsehoods and failed to fact-check crucial details, something Musk himself had to correct publicly.

Musk’s relationship with the political world remains complex, and his back-and-forth with Stephen Miller and others shows just how deeply his personal and professional lives are intertwined. Musk's political leanings and alliances are frequently under the microscope, with his influence in both tech and political spheres ever-growing.

It’s clear that he’s no stranger to controversy, and the latest saga involving Katie Miller only adds another layer to his already colorful reputation.

For now, the public remains captivated by the ongoing drama, with many still questioning what, if anything, is truly happening behind the scenes. One thing is certain: Elon Musk’s life is far from dull, and his influence — both in technology and politics — shows no signs of waning.

As for the viral rumors, only time will tell how much truth lies behind them and whether Musk will continue to be the lightning rod for controversy and speculation that he has become.

The affair of the Millers may eventually fade into the background, but the storm Musk has ignited continues to rage, with no end in sight.
