Elon Musk Slams Trump Personnel Chief in Explosive Tweet
Billionaire Elon Musk has ignited a political firestorm by blasting President Trump’s top personnel official, Sergio Gor, in the wake of a growing White House scandal. The attack follows a bombshell report that Gor failed to submit the mandatory federal background check—despite holding one of the most powerful gatekeeping positions in the Trump administration.
“He’s a snake,” Musk wrote late Wednesday, taking direct aim at Gor amid rising tensions within the Republican power structure.
NASA Nomination Fallout Sparks Conservative Backlash
Insiders say Gor played a decisive role in the sudden withdrawal of Jared Isaacman’s nomination to lead NASA. Isaacman, a decorated entrepreneur and a close friend of Musk, was expected to be confirmed by the Senate within days—until Gor allegedly persuaded the president to pull the plug.
The stunning move caused Musk to erupt publicly, reversing course and calling for President Trump’s impeachment. In response, Trump threatened to review federal contracts worth “billions and billions of dollars” tied to Musk’s companies, including SpaceX and Tesla.
Top Trump Allies Outraged Over Gor’s Power Play
Sources close to the Trump camp are furious. Key advisers believe Gor’s actions may have compromised the administration’s broader political agenda—putting personal vendettas over policy victories that matter to everyday Americans.
Conservatives were especially troubled by the timing. Musk had just contributed more than $250 million to Trump’s re-election effort, making him the campaign’s largest private donor in 2024.
Legislation Backlash: Musk Turns on Trump’s Key Agenda
The loss of the NASA nomination marked a turning point. Musk, who had previously offered soft criticism of a key Trump bill—one that included tax cuts on tips, overtime, and Social Security—suddenly turned hostile. He urged lawmakers to vote against it and called for the defeat of any Republican who supported the measure.
The legislation was designed to provide financial relief to working Americans—especially seniors and retirees—but Musk’s response threatened to split the conservative coalition at a critical moment.
Who Is Sergio Gor? White House Vetting Controversy Deepens
Now, deeper questions are being raised about Gor himself. As the presidential personnel director, he oversees more than 4,000 executive-branch appointments—but never submitted the standard SF-86 form required for a full security clearance.
While most senior White House officials complete the form before assuming their duties, Gor continued operating under an interim clearance. The White House now claims he has “completed” the 100+ page questionnaire—but won’t say when it will be submitted.
Foreign Connections? Gor’s Birthplace Remains a Mystery
The SF-86 requires full disclosure of birthplace and foreign ties. Gor has stated he’s from Malta—but Maltese officials confirmed he wasn’t born there. When pressed for details, Gor refused to disclose where he was born, saying only that it was “not Russia.”
He immigrated to the U.S. at age 12 and has since risen to hold enormous influence over federal appointments.
What’s Next for Musk and Trump?
It remains to be seen whether this rift between two high-powered allies can be mended. The stakes are high: Musk is a key figure in the tech and defense sectors, while President Trump continues to reshape the Republican Party ahead of the 2024 election.
For now, Musk’s attack has brought renewed scrutiny to who’s really calling the shots in the White House—and whether personal loyalty is being placed above national interest.
Gor has not responded to requests for comment.
Elon is just mad because his “friend” (Jared Isaacman’s nomination to lead NASA.) wasn’t chosen to lead NASA!
