White House suggests Trump doesn't want Elon Musk's xAI to have federal contracts
"President Donald Trump may be at odds with his own administration over Elon Musk's AI company.
When White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt was asked by a reporter on Wednesday whether the president supported federal agencies contracting with Musk's xAI, she indicated that he does not.
"I don't think so, no," Leavitt replied.
That's despite the Department of Defense recently announcing a contract of up to $200 million with the company.
"I'll talk to him about it," Leavitt replied when asked whether Trump would like to see existing contracts cancelled."
