LONG LIVE THE REAL KING!”—Shocking Video of Trump Kissing Elon Musk’s Feet Airs on Government TVs (Video)
People have the right to protest when they are unhappy with the government. Protests can take many forms. Right now, Gen Z is expressing their frustration with Donald Trump’s administration by creating AI-generated memes.
Last week, Trump called himself a king and gave a lot of power to his friend Elon Musk. Musk now has so much control that he can hire and fire federal workers whenever he wants.
Among the thousands of people fired were several cybersecurity workers. Without them, government systems became vulnerable. On Monday, hackers took advantage of this.
On Monday, a strange video of Donald Trump was played on screens inside a federal building. At the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), an AI-generated video of Trump kissing Elon Musk’s feet appeared everywhere. The message “Long Live The King” was written at the bottom.
Vox writer Rachel Cohen shared a clip of the hacked monitors on social media after getting it from a HUD source.
“HAHA. The monitors at the Housing and Urban Development building were hacked this morning and displayed an AI video of Donald Trump kissing Elon Musk’s feet, alongside the message: ‘LONG LIVE THE REAL KING.’”
So far, no one knows who uploaded the video, but it is believed that someone from inside the department was involved. HUD spokesperson Kasey Lovett told Daily Mail that the responsible person would be punished. She also said it was a waste of government money and resources.
While we don’t know who made or uploaded the video, the reason behind it is clear. Musk has already fired many federal workers, and now he seems to be going after the U.S. Postal Service.
Over the weekend, all federal workers received an email from the Office of Personnel Management. It asked them to list five tasks they completed in the past week. If they failed to respond, it would be seen as their resignation.
This email created panic. Many employees questioned whether OPM had the authority to make such a demand. Things got worse when Musk confirmed that anyone who didn’t reply would be considered as having quit their job.
Some worker unions told their members not to respond. Even the FBI instructed its agents to ignore the email until further notice. But Musk and Trump didn’t back down.
Musk called the email test “simple” and mocked those who refused to answer.
“The request was so easy—just type a few words and press send! Yet many still failed, encouraged by their own managers. Have you ever seen such incompetence and disrespect for taxpayers?”
Trump also supported Musk’s efforts, saying the email was a “great idea” to fight government waste.
Later, Trump trolled federal employees by posting a SpongeBob meme on his social media platform, Truth Social. Musk joined in, joking that he had become a meme himself and laughing at people’s reactions.
