Elon Musk trolled President Joe Biden on X after Hunter Biden’s pardon, sharing a community note mocking the president’s previous post that said, “No one is above the law.” Soon after, a Threads post falsely claimed Musk threatened “anyone glorifying” the pardon “will be suspended from X permanently.” There’s no evidence Musk made such a statement.
President-elect Donald Trump is the first Republican presidential candidate to win the popular vote in 20 years.

Attacks by Israeli forces and Hamas continue to kill or displace people in the Gaza Strip.
