Employees were in for a shock when television screens in a government building showed a video of President Donald Trump sucking Elon Musk’s toes.
The video, made with AI, was captioned ‘Long live the real king’, in a reference to a recent White House tweet, showing an AI version of Trump with a crown, captioned ‘Long live the King’.
The bizarre video was broadcast in the office of the Department of Housing and Urban Development and widely shared by employees on social media.
A spokesperson for the department told the Mail: ‘Another waste of taxpayer dollars and resources. Appropriate action will be taken for all involved.’
The disturbing ‘video’ showed Trump fondling Musk’s feet – two of them left – and kissing them and sucking on his toes.
The move comes days after Muskordered US government staff to list what they have done at work in the past week – or risk being fired.

Federal workers received a three-line email asking for five bullet points summing up their achievements over the last seven days.
In a post on his social media site X, Musk wrote: ‘Failure to respond will be taken as a resignation.’
It is the latest stage in the billionaire’s efforts to drastically shrink the government workforce through a course of mass sackings.
Lawyers representing US federal employees asked to explain their accomplishments or risk being fired said: ‘No OPM rule, regulation, policy, or programme has ever, in United States history, purported to require all federal workers to submit reports to OPM.’
It called the threat of mass firings ‘one of the most massive employment frauds in the history of this country’.
In a little over a month since Donald Trump returned to the White House, his team – named the Department of Government Efficiency, though it is not an official federal agency – has made sweeping cuts in several key bodies.

And Tibor Nagy of the State Department wrote in an email obtained by US media: ‘No employee is obligated to report their activities outside of their Department chain of command.’
