New allegations about Elon Musk: daily ketamine, NYT exposes

The drug problems of the world-famous billionaire, founder of SpaceX and Tesla, and head of the US Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) Elon Musk have once again become the subject of widespread discussion. A new article published by The New York Times has fully revealed the entrepreneur's relationship with drugs and caused a huge public outcry.

According to the information provided by the newspaper, Musk actively used various psychotropic substances and drugs during the election campaign of US President Donald Trump for the 2024 presidential election. This was reported to the publication by several sources close to the entrepreneur.

It is noted that the entrepreneur regularly and in large quantities took the powerful drug ketamine. Although Musk said in an interview with CNN in March 2024 that he takes ketamine only on prescription, in small quantities and once every two weeks, The New York Times reported that he took this substance more often. According to the publication's sources, the entrepreneur used ketamine frequently, even daily, and mixed it with other types of drugs.

It is noted that the billionaire had serious health problems due to excessive use of this substance, and he also talked about it with those around him. According to Musk, as a result of constant use of ketamine, he had serious problems with his bladder.

The New York Times also reported that Elon Musk had used other psychoactive substances, such as ecstasy (MDMA) and hallucinogenic mushrooms. Not only that, the entrepreneur always carried a box of 20 pills with him, including powerful stimulants such as Adderall.

In addition, the publication emphasized that it was difficult to determine whether Musk continued to take such substances while serving in high positions in the US government. For example, the SpaceX company he runs has signed large-scale contracts with the government, which requires mandatory drug tests among its employees. However, some sources claim that Musk may have been informed in advance about these tests.

This issue, raised by journalists, was also discussed at a press conference held at the White House on May 30. Musk himself participated in it and sharply responded to journalists' questions on this topic, accusing The New York Times of "spreading false information." He refused to comment on this topic, advising journalists to "move on."

In an interview broadcast on CNN in March 2024, the entrepreneur confirmed that he uses ketamine for medical purposes. According to him, from time to time negative situations, such as depression, affect his life, and at such times, ketamine helps him get out of this state. Musk, however, stressed that he did not take too much ketamine, otherwise, excessive use of such a powerful substance would seriously affect his professional activities.

This information will seriously affect not only Musk's personal life, but also his reputation as a person holding a high state position. In addition, this scandal has caused new debates in the US public. Currently, extensive discussions on this topic have begun on social networks, and the likelihood of new details emerging in this regard is high.
