Summary

JD Vance defended Marko Elez, a 25-year-old Musk aide after racist posts surfaced, including ā€œNormalize Indian hate.ā€

Elez resigned but was reinstated following Vanceā€™s support, despite Vanceā€™s wife being of Indian descent. Vance dismissed criticism, arguing past social media posts shouldnā€™t ruin careers.

Musk backed Elez after a public poll. Rep. Ro Khanna challenged Vance, who responded dismissively, sparking backlash.

The incident has intensified scrutiny of Muskā€™s hiring practices and Vanceā€™s stance on racism.

    Vanceā€™s mental gymnastics are Olympic-tier. Defending a Musk aide who posted ā€œNormalize Indian hateā€ while married to an Indian woman? Unreal. The manā€™s moral compass isnā€™t brokenā€”itā€™s been sold to the highest bidder.

    Elezā€™s reinstatement is a joke. Racist posts arenā€™t youthful indiscretions; theyā€™re neon signs of character. But Muskā€™s Twitter poll governance strikes again, proving that bigotry is just another day at the office for his empire of chaos.

    Ro Khannaā€™s right to call him out. Vanceā€™s dismissal isnā€™t just cowardiceā€”itā€™s complicity. If your principles canā€™t withstand a paycheck or a poll, you donā€™t have any to begin with.
