Musk praises Fetterman as bipartisan tensions rise among Republicans

Senator John Fetterman expressed admiration for Elon Musk, stating they are not enemies despite differing political views. Musk praised Fetterman, saying he "puts country over party," in response to Fetterman's comments about Musk's contributions to society. Republican Rep. Derrick Van Orden criticized Musk's remarks, calling them misleading and asserting that Fetterman's voting record does not align with his statements. This exchange highlights the ongoing tensions between parties regarding political figures. Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy are now co-chairs of the newly formed Department of Government Efficiency, aiming to address national debt and improve government spending. They recently met with lawmakers to discuss their goals.
