Elon Musk on Friday said that his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) will bring back a fired staffer who made “inappropriate” social media posts as Vice President JD Vance on Friday said he wanted him to return to the organization.

“He will be brought back,” Musk posted on X, the social media platform he owns. “To err is human, to forgive divine.”
