The staffer with billionaire Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency who resigned after a report that linked him to racism and eugenics has been reinstated at the Social Security Administration, according to people familiar with the move.
Marko Elez, who reportedly advocated for a “eugenic immigration policy” and argued against mixed-race relationships in posts on X, received support from Musk, President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance after his departure earlier this month. Vance argued he didn’t think “stupid social media activity should ruin a kid’s life.”
Before resigning from DOGE, Elez, an engineer who has worked for SpaceX and social-media platform X, had an office in Treasury and an email address with the agency, Bloomberg News previously reported.
