Elon Musk ‘took so much ketamine on campaign trail it affected his bladder… as Tesla boss also used ecstasy & mushrooms’
Share this @internewscast.com

ELON Musk took an extensive amount of drugs while helping Donald Trump be reelected as president, it has been claimed.

The Tesla boss reportedly used ketamine, ecstasy and psychedelic mushrooms at an alarming rate during the campaign trail last year.

The 53-year-old technology magnate is reported to have used ketamine frequently, resulting in severe bladder issues, as stated in a report by the New York Times.

According to reports, Musk confided in his colleagues last spring—coinciding with his initial endorsement of Trump for the presidential race—that he was experiencing the impact of the potent drug.

Bladder problems are a known consequence of chronic abuse of ketamine, according to the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).

It remains unclear whether Musk was ever under the influence of any drugs during his time inside the White House.

The world’s richest man was also travelling with a daily supply of approximately 20 pills at one point, the report added.

It is alleged that the substances were stored in a medication container labeled for Adderall, as witnessed by individuals who have viewed photos of the box.

This left those around him to say he had developed a “serious ketamine habit”, say the NYT.

The alleged drug usage is said to have worsened around the same time as Musk endorsed Trump in the 2024 presidential election.

Musk has previously admitted to using ketamine in small doses to help with depression as it can be legally prescribed in the US.

But in most workplaces its usage would likely violate federal workplace policies.

He is also said to have taken ecstasy and psychedelic mushrooms in recent months.

Ecstasy is classified by the DEA as a Schedule I controlled substance which means it has no accepted medical use.

This means it is completely banned for all federal employees and is illegal across the US.

It comes as President Trump officially said goodbye to Musk earlier today as he exited the “Department of Government Efficiency” (DOGE) and left the White House.

Musk wore a black t-shirt with the words “The Dogefather” in the style of The Godfather emblazoned on the front.

He was also seen with a black eye as he stood next to Trump in the Oval Office.

It was later revealed that the nasty injury was from his five-year-old son X who had accidentally hit him when the two were playing.

He was quizzed by a reporter around the drug claims in the NYT report.

Musk did not directly respond but attacked the news site.

He said: “Is that the same publication that got a Pulitzer Prize for false reporting on the Russiagate?

“Is it the same organisation? Let’s move on.”

His comments referenced claims made by the NYT that Russian interference had compromised the 2016 presidential election which Trump won.

Musk officially announced he was leaving his role as Trump’s “secretary of cost-cutting” this week after a dramatic 130-day White House stint.

Despite promising to save American taxpayers $2trillion, DOGE estimates its cuts have actually saved around $175billion.

Musk’s time in office was marked by a slew of dramatic moments.

This includes him brandishing a chainsaw on stage and even putting on a Tesla sales pitch outside the White House.

At one point, an erratic Musk even appeared to do a “Nazi salute” on stage at a celebration for Trump’s election win in January.

He denied the gesture was purposefully done and hit out at critics.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s complicated relationship

PRESIDENT Donald Trump and Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s relationship started rocky, but the pair have since reconciled after Musk fully endorsed Trump during his election campaign.

In 2022, Elon Musk and Donald Trump publicly feuded on X as the president called Musk a liar and a “bulls**t artist” during a rally in Alaska.

In response to Trump’s critiques, the SpaceX founder clapped back.

“I don’t hate the man, but it’s time for Trump to hang up his hat & sail into the sunset,” Musk posted.

Ahead of the 2024 presidential election, their feud reignited.

Musk initially backed Florida Governor Ron DeSantis to be the Republican Party’s presidential nominee.

But despite their past issues, Trump and Musk’s relationship took a turn last March after they met at Mar-a-Lago.

Then after the assassination attempt at Trump’s rally in July, Musk fully announced his support for the former president in a shock move.

“I fully endorse President Trump and hope for his rapid recovery,” Musk wrote on X after the shooting.

During a recent press conference, Trump then spoke highly of Musk saying: “I respect Elon a lot. He respects me.

“Elon, more than almost anybody I know, he loves this country. He loves the concept of this country, but like me, he says this country is in big trouble, it’s in tremendous danger.”

Musk went on to pay millions to help the Trump campaign as he appeared at several rallies and became the future president’s right hand man.

Since winning the election they have remained close and been pictured at events at Mar-a-Lago and the UFC.

Trump even selected Musk to lead the Department of Government Efficiency – a taskforce aimed at cutting bureaucracy. 

Musk’s son was also seen smiling and playing around with Trump inside the Oval Office earlier this year.

The SpaceX chief has previously spoken out about his often odd mannerisms and behaviour after a report alleged illegal drugs are the cause.

In January 2024, a Wall Street Journal report claimed in 2018, the Tesla CEO took multiple tabs of acid at a party in Los Angeles, Shrooms in 2019, and ketamine in 2021.

Musk responded by saying he agreed to three years of random drug testing at NASA’s request recently.

SpaceX has a strict drug-free workplace policy for all its employees – including top bosses due to its government contracts.

But insiders told the NYT that Musk will always be given prior notice of when the random drug tests will be taking place.

It is unclear if the White House has drug testing policies for all its staff and if Musk was ever tested.
