On Tuesday evening, Fox News aired host Sean Hannity's pre-taped joint interview with President Donald Trump and Elon Musk.

Key Details: Trump and Musk praised each other as they rejected Democrats' criticism of DOGE and the firings that have led to several lawsuits. Topics included the current state of politics and the future of American innovation, as well as a discussion of when Trump sued Twitter (now X) and Musk paid the president $10 million.

Key Quote: Trump called Musk a "very good man" who wants to see the country do well.  Musk said of Trump, “He’s been so unfairly attacked. It's really outrageous."

For Context: Democrats are claiming that Musk's audits of government agencies are politically motivated and illegal. Musk is claiming that DOGE's audits would cut at least $1 trillion out of the annual deficit.

How the Media Covered it: There was little coverage of the interview from the left, though The Guardian (Left bias) reported that Trump and Musk rejected claims that Musk was "usurping the president's limelight - and power." Townhall (Right) reported that the pair also discussed a tax refund, a “DOGE dividend,” that every U.S. taxpayer would receive, based on savings delivered by DOGE.

In a highly anticipated interview, President Donald Trump and Elon Musk sat down with Fox News host Sean Hannity to discuss various topics, from the future of American innovation to the current state of politics. The conversation between the two influential figures sparked widespread attention as they weighed in on pressing issues such as the economy, social media, their shared vision for the country’s future, and the media’s attempt to drive a wedge between them.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk lavished praise on each other while defending the Doge overhaul in a joint interview on Fox News.

Musk boasted of a “thrashing of the bureaucracy as we try to restore democracy and the will of the people” when asked about criticism of the so-called “department of government efficiency”.

The pair joked around in the cosy hour-long primetime TV interview with Sean Hannity who at one point was moved to say: “I feel like I’m interviewing two brothers here.”

President Trump and tech billionaire Elon Musk sat down for a joint interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity where they defended the administration’s massive overhaul of the federal government and gave some insights into their friendship.

The interview was the latest display of Trump putting Musk in the spotlight following an Oval Office appearance by the Tesla CEO last week in which he fielded several questions from reporters while the president sat at the Resolute Desk.
