While on a call with Elon Musk and Alex Jones, Vivek Ramaswamy was called out for leaving his microphone on while he relieved himself.

On Sunday, X CEO Elon Musk decided to participate in an X Spaces livestream to welcome conspiracy theorist, insurrectionist, and InfoWars founder Alex Jones back to his social media platform.

The livestream—hosted by self-described alternative media and crypto "king" Mario Nawfal—included a veritable who's who of right-wing, White nationalist pundits and provocateurs including Jones, Musk, Jackson Hinkle, Jack Posobiec, Dave Smith, alleged sex trafficker Andrew Tate and Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy.


Musk was speaking with Nawfal about his decision to reinstate Jones, whose lies and harassment of mass shooting victims and their families and incitement of violence contributed to his removal from multiple social media platforms.

Ramaswamy cut in to say:

"Gentlemen I have to go."

And go he did.

The commentary from Musk continued, but it was joined by what sounded like someone urinating.

Jones remarked:

"Someone’s got their [mic] open peeing!”
“Someone’s got their phone open in the bathroom."

Nawfal identified the culprit, saying:

"Vivek, that's your phone. But I am not able to mute you."

The GOP presidential candidate muted his phone then came back to apologize.

Ramaswamy said:

"Sorry about that!"

Musk responded:

"Well I hope you feel better now."

The conservative candidate replied:

"I feel great, thank you."

People quickly remarked on Ramaswamy's live stream during the livestream.











Musk previously claimed he would not allow Jones back on X after his 2018 ban.

Musk was convinced to restore Jones' account after conducting an unscientific poll of X users, in which 70% of respondents agreed Jones should be allowed back on the platform.

Jones was ordered to pay $1.5 billion to Sandy Hook families for repeatedly telling his followers the 2012 school shooting was a hoax and that victims and their families were crisis actors.

Six adults and twenty children were murdered in the Newtown, Connecticut elementary school.

RFK Jr. Admits That Banning Fluoridated Water Will Cause 'More Cavities'—But He's OK With That

Health and Human Services Secretary (HHS) Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was criticized after admitting in a Fox News interview with Harris Faulkner that his proposed fluoridated water ban would likely lead people to have more cavities—but defended the move nonetheless.

While fluoride is not federally mandated in drinking water, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) had long recommended its inclusion. Fluoride helps prevent cavities by strengthening enamel, and numerous studies have shown that fluoridated water reduces tooth decay in both children and adults.

Jesse Watters Dragged After Trying To Give Mamdani A Scary Nickname That's Actually Kind Of Epic

Fox News personality Jesse Watters was widely mocked after he tried to give New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani a scary nickname in the vein of Conan the Destroyer—only for it to backfire considerably.

Watters is the latest member of the GOP to lash out at Mamdani, a democratic socialist who handily defeated former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo in New York City's Democratic mayoral primary last week.

MAGA Rep Slammed After Calling For Mamdani To Be Stripped Of His Citizenship And Deported Over Rap Lyric

Tennessee Republican Andy Ogles was called out after he shared a letter he sent to Attorney General Pam Bondi urging her to denaturalize and deport New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani over a lyric in a rap song Mamdani released in 2017.

Mamdani ran a campaign centered around economic populism, arguing that the city, a global financial center, has grown unaffordable for everyday residents, citing soaring rents and grocery prices, and outlining policies aimed at reducing the cost of living.
