Steve Bannon Vows to Keep Elon Musk Out of White House Over H-1B Visa Dispute Before Inauguration Day

Steve Bannon, former chief strategist to President-elect Donald Trump, has vowed to prevent Elon Musk from having access to the White House, describing Musk as a 'truly evil guy' and a 'very bad guy'. Bannon's criticism stems from Musk's support for H-1B visas, which allow companies to hire skilled foreign workers. Bannon has declared his intention to 'take this guy down' and ensure Musk is treated like any other person upon Trump's inauguration on January 20. This conflict highlights a rift within the MAGA movement over immigration policies and the influence of tech billionaires in Trump's administration.
