US Vice President JD Vance reportedly yelled at aides to get Elon Musk and Jensen Huang 'the f*** off' stage

JD Vance reportedly lost patience backstage when Musk and the Nvidia chief overran by 30 minutes during the America.gov launch, held close to the National Mall. Vance was reportedly running half an hour late for a MAHA summit with RFK Jr. His aides allegedly threatened to pull him from the programme altogether. Deputy chief of staff William Martin called the account 'a complete fabrication'.

Staff were overheard telling organisers: 'Vance is the Vice President of the United States.'

Event staffer Christina Bonarrigo insists he 'never raised his voice, used profanity or showed any frustration'.

The reported rift with Silicon Valley billionaires could haunt Vance's 2028 White House run.
