Elon Musk Calls Claims That He’s a Nazi ‘Outrageous’ (www.rollingstone.com)

Elon Musk, the head of Donald Trump’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency, said “it’s an outrageous thing to claim that I’m a Nazi” in a clip from an interview with Fox News that was released Friday, slamming how he’s been covered by the media. He also said that if his detractors could “press a button” and kill him, they would, but he is “difficult to kill.”

At Trump’s post-inauguration rally, Musk gave a straight-arm salute that many, including his estranged daughter, interpreted to be a Sieg Heil. Since he bought Twitter, now social platform X, he has restored white supremacist accounts that were previously banned. In March, as he was carrying out widespread firings of federal workers, he shared a post from an X account that said that Joseph Stalin, Adolf Hitler, and Mao Zedong didn’t cause the deaths of millions of people. Instead, public workers did. After criticism, he removed the post.

Shortly after Trump’s inauguration, Musk spoke virtually at a campaign event for a far-right German political party, Alternative für Deutschland. He said that Germans should not lose their culture to “multiculturalism.”

The only comfort I have these days is that I know that the highs these mf'ers håbe been on since January is going to come back to them tenfold when all is said and done. Felon Musk is the first casualty because he was the dumbest one with the biggest hubris. But the others, who are probably looking at him and snickering at his downfall, are going to feel it themselves. Tenfold.

I'm not a patient person, but I am looking forward to this fallout when the dust settles someday. All these cunts are in for one hell of a ride. I thank Felon for giving us an appetizer early for what is to come.
