Much like the rest of us, Grimes is pissed at Elon Musk again. Weeks after denouncing her ex’s apparent embrace of Nazism, the singer scolded Musk on X — this time, for bringing their 4-year-old son to the Oval Office for a photo op with Donald Trump.

Apparently, Trump invited Musk to the White House on Tuesday to (1) bro out, probably, and (2) usher in a new executive order issuing guidance for Musk’s cursed Department of Government Efficiency. Right around the time that DOGE announced a plan to terminate roughly $100 million in U.S. Department of Education DEI contracts, X Æ A-12 was crawling around the Oval Office, picking his nose and depositing tiny boogers onto the Resolute desk.

He should not be in public like this. I did not see this, thank u for alerting me. But I’m glad he was polite. Sigh

“He should not be in public like this,” Grimes tweeted after a follower complimented her son’s White House manners in her comments section. “I did not see this, thank u for alerting me. But I’m glad he was polite. Sigh.”

Grimes and Musk, who share three children, have been locked in an increasingly tense custody battle since 2023 while Musk trots their oldest son out as a political prop — apparently against Grimes’s wishes.

“I have made it clear I do not approve of that in every conceivable way I know how,” she wrote in January, a week after Musk brought X Æ A-12 to Mar-a-Lago for a New Year’s Eve party. “I am desperate to solve it. It is a personal tragedy to me. But currently I don’t know how to do that.”
