Musk rebukes Grok for verifying fabricated X post

- Katie Miller, Stephen Miller’s wife, had left her White House role to work with Musk in late May 2025, fueling speculation behind the fake post.
- This incident highlighted ongoing tensions between Musk and the Trump administration and underscored challenges in verifying AI-generated social media claims.
