Elon Musk won’t stand for lying on X, the social media platform — formerly Twitter — he owns, even if you are the vice president.

Musk took to task a post by Vice President Kamala Harris and accused her of “lying” about former President Donald Trump’s view on a national abortion ban, Fox News reported. 

The feud started when Harris posted on X, “Donald Trump would ban abortion nationwide.”

“President @JoeBiden and I will do everything in our power to stop him and restore women’s reproductive freedom,” she wrote on June 30.

Readers immediately hit back with post on Community Notes. This is a way for readers to refute posts that are viewed as wrong or false.

Readers posted from a multitude of media outlets, including Trump’s own Truth Social, which allegedly proved Harris’ statement wrong.

Musk shot back, writing on July 1, “When will politicians, or at least the intern who runs their account, learn that lying on this platform doesn’t work anymore?”

Trump has been vocal about his stance on abortion, saying the power should be left to the states.

During Thursday’s Presidential Debate, Trump reiterated his stance on abortion and giving the states the power to decide and the newly approved abortion pill.

“First of all, the Supreme Court just approved the abortion pill (mifepristone) and I agree with their decision to have done that, and I will not block it,” Trump said.

Trump lauded the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade in 2022. This decision gave the states the power to decide the legality of abortions.

“I put three great Supreme Court justices on the court and they happened to vote in favor of killing Roe v. Wade and moving it back to the states. This is something that everybody wanted,” Trump said. “Now the states are working it out.”

Trump said the states are “making their own decisions right now and right now the states control it.”

“That’s the vote of the people.”

Trump added he believes in abortion ban exceptions “for rape, incest and the life of the mother,” per PBS.

“I believe in the exceptions. I am a person that believes, and frankly, I think it is important to believe in the exceptions,” Trump said, per Fox. “Some people, you have to follow your heart, some people don’t believe in that.“
