Trump is rumored to have invited Musk and Rubio for dinner,

On the 6th local time, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio was exposed to have a conflict with Musk, who is responsible for government efficiency department affairs, during a cabinet meeting over layoffs. According to foreign media such as the Congressional Hill and The New York Times on the 10th, US President Trump is attempting to act as a mediator and downplay any form of "infighting" between the two. Meanwhile, on the 8th, Trump invited Rubio and Musk to dinner together.

The New York Times reported that the dinner was held at Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate, marking a "ceasefire" between Trump's chief diplomat and Musk. The report further commented that Saturday's trilateral dinner also indicated that Trump hopes Musk and Rubio can coexist peacefully. The report mentioned that after the dinner, Rubio and Musk had friendly interactions on social media and seemed to have reached a "handshake and peace".

On the 10th local time, Rubio posted on Musk's social media platform X that he had completed a review of the contracts with the United States Agency for International Development and cancelled 83% of the projects, citing that these contracts failed to advance "core national interests of the United States".

The Congressional Hill also cited sources within the White House as saying that Trump was well aware that his critics and political opponents would seize any apparent cracks within the government, so he quickly took action to quell any conflict between the two most prominent officials in the administration.

According to a previous report by The New York Times, Rubio's private dissatisfaction with Musk has been ongoing for several weeks since the team led by Musk shut down the United States Agency for International Development. At the cabinet meeting held on the 6th, Rubio expressed his dissatisfaction in front of President Trump and about 20 other people. When Musk pressured the State Department not to lay off employees, Rubio also retaliated on the spot. He countered by saying whether Musk wants him to rehire those who left under the "buyout" plan in order to rehire them again. According to reports, the argument between the two lasted for some time.

On the 8th, Trump posted on his social media platform "Real Social" denying that the two of them had an argument, saying, "Elon and Marco have a good relationship, anything else is fake news
