Trump, Musk to sit for first joint interview on Hannity

President Trump and billionaire adviser Elon Musk will sit for their first joint interview next week with Fox News host Sean Hannity, the network announced Friday.

Hannity will interview the two men next Tuesday at the White House. The sit-down will be taped in the afternoon and air during Hannity's show Tuesday night.

The Fox News host also scored Trump's first sit-down interview of his second term in January.

Musk has come under intense scrutiny in recent weeks as the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), an advisory effort he is leading, has gone into numerous federal agencies looking to slash and stop funding to programs that do not align with Trump's agenda.

Democrats and watchdogs have sounded the alarm over Musk and his DOGE team potentially gaining access to sensitive information, and they have raised concerns that the Tesla CEO and SpaceX founder has conflicts of interest given his companies receive government contracts.

Musk appeared alongside Trump in the Oval Office earlier this week to defend his work.

“Some of the things that I say will be incorrect and should be corrected. So, nobody is going to bat a thousand. We will make mistakes, and we’ll act quickly to correct any mistakes,” Musk said during that appearance.
