"Do you think he's a terrorist?"/ Awkward moment at the White

Elon Musk was among the guests at the official reception that Donald Trump hosted in honor of Saudi Arabia's crown prince, Mohammed bin Salman.

According to the Daily Mail, the billionaire has attracted attention, but not for the right reasons. In a recently released video, Musk is seen sitting at a table next to Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla, having a strange conversation with him.

According to a lip-reading expert, Musk asks Bourla if he believes Mohammed bin Salman is a terrorist while taking a sip from a glass of champagne.

"Your opinion? Is he a terrorist?" Musk is heard saying, according to the Daily Mail, while Bourla reacted with a visible expression of embarrassment on his face.

This visit marks Musk's return to the White House, following the strong conflict he had months ago with Donald Trump after his departure from the administration.

Bourla also faced protests during his visit to Trump, immediately after the president's inauguration and return to office.

Among the guests were Cristiano Ronaldo, Donald Trump Jr., Secretary of State Marco Rubio, House Speaker Mike Johnson, as well as Fox News hosts Bret Baier and Maria Bartiromo.

The reception was also attended by well-known business figures such as Jensen Huang of Nvidia, Tim Cook of Apple, Charles Schwab, Mary Barra of General Motors, and Alex Karp of Palantir.
