Steve Bannon Says Elon Musk Should Be Deported ‘Immediately’

Former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon said he has advised President Donald Trump to “immediately” deport Elon Musk from the United States.

Bannon, who has been critical of Musk and his work with the Department of Government Efficiency for months, reportedly said on Thursday that he suggested Trump launch an investigation into Elon Musk’s immigration status.

“They should initiate a formal investigation of his immigration status because I am of the strong belief that he is an illegal alien, and he should be deported from the country immediately,” Bannon told the New York Times.

On his War Room podcast Thursday, Bannon also strongly rebuked Musk’s lack of delivering on promised evidence of waste, fraud, and abuse within the federal government.

For all the Elon fanboys: Elon promised a trillion dollars in cuts but delivered rescissions with no teeth.

Fanboys, grab your pencils: The GOP shot down the real fight. No fraud money was found from Social Security. No waste cut. Just talk. pic.twitter.com/uriI7DdLTA
