The New York Times published an investigation into Musk's drug use just hours before he appeared with Trump at the White House on his last day as head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

The world's richest man has also taken ecstasy and mushrooms and traveled with a box of pills last year. It is not known whether Musk took drugs while heading DOGE.

The South African-born tech mogul, the biggest donor to Trump's 2024 election campaign, has told close associates that ketamine, an anesthetic that can cause dissociation, has affected his bladder. This is a known effect of long-term use. | BGNES
