Elon Musk's drug use ramped up during the 2024 presidential campaign according to New York Times. Really!

What kind of attempt is this to smear Elon Musk?

What unnamed sources told the NYT?

And according to NYT Elon Musk violates a custody agreement: "... Ms. Boucher has privately complained that the appearances violate a custody settlement in which she and Mr. Musk agreed to try to keep their children out of the public eye, according to people familiar with her concerns and the provision, which has not been previously reported. ..."

He plays video games for hours on end. He struggles with binge eating, according to people familiar with his habits, and takes weight-loss medication. And he posts day and night on his social media platform, X.

Mr. Musk has a history of recreational drug use, The Wall Street Journal reported last year. Some board members at Tesla, his electric vehicle company, have worried about his use of drugs, including Ambien, a sleep medication. ..."
