Lawmakers Seek FBI Probe Into Alleged Domestic Terrorism Against Elon Musk

Elon Musk's controversial leadership of the newly created Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has come under fire, with critics accusing him of undermining government services and pushing for privatization, which Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent indicated is a goal of the Trump administration. Meanwhile, as vandalism against Tesla vehicles and dealerships rises amid protests against Musk, Republican lawmakers, including Marjorie Taylor Greene, have called for investigations into these acts, labeling them as domestic terrorism. Trump has supported this narrative, promising to label vandals as domestic terrorists while defending Musk against public backlash. Critics argue that Musk's policies, which aim to cut welfare programs and reduce federal spending, are unpopular and detrimental, calling for accountability in his absence from congressional oversight meetings. As tensions escalate, activists opposing Musk's influence insist that peaceful protests are being mischaracterized as domestic terrorism. The situation reflects a growing divide in American politics, with Musk's actions eliciting both fervent support and staunch opposition.
