The US Secret Service is 'aware' of a social media post by
Elon Musk suggesting no one is attempting to assassinate President
Joe Biden or Vice-President Kamala Harris.
Musk, who deleted the post and called it a joke, had posted it on X, formerly known as Twitter, following a suspected assassination attempt on
Donald Trump at his Florida golf course.
The White House condemned Musk's remarks, terming them 'irresponsible.' The Secret Service confirmed it investigates all threats related to its protectees but did not comment further on Musk's post.
