The Left is faking outrage but is silently cackling with glee that they have killed off one of Musk's wunderkids.
This time it was the Wall Street Journal doing the work for the Left, identifying racist social media posts.

Elon Musk's top DOGE staffer Marko Elez quits over racist social media posts

One of Elon Musk's trusted DOGE staffers has resigned from his position after his links to racist social media posts promoting eugenics were unearthed.
Marko Elez was one of two employees at the Department of Government Efficiency granted access to $5trillion in the Treasury payment systems following an 11th hour court hearing on Thursday.
But by Thursday afternoon, the 25-year-old trusted Musk ally had resigned after The Wall Street Journal probed his links to the since-deleted social media account.
According to the publication, the X account 'advocated repealing the Civil Rights Act and backed a 'eugenic immigration policy'.'

It comes after a last-ditch court request to limit DOGE's access to Treasury's $5trillion system - the first hiccup for the nascent agency after weeks of ruthlessly purging federal institutions to eliminate waste and overspending.
Over the coming days and weeks, the court's decision on privacy concerns about DOGE's access to the data will be a monumental test of their power to infiltrate and wipe out government spending.
Lawyers with the Justice Department agreed to a motion that allows only two people associated with Musk 'read-only' access to the system - including tax returns and social security numbers - on the condition that they do not share what they find with colleagues.
Those two employees are Musk disciples Tom Krause and Elez.
Virginia Congressman Don Beyer described Elez' resignation as 'a scandal.'
'Elon Musk gave a self-described 'racist' and eugenicist access to a system that controls all financial payments from the U.S. Treasury,' he said.
'That system also contains the personal information including Social Security info of every American....

Bull****, one post doesn't mean anything. In the woke mind virus opinion any non POC who doesn't kneel and wear a BLM shirt is racist. You have to consider yourself "racist" or give all the power to the woke mind virus.
Under the current definition, everyone is racist:
