Tesla cars and property targets of ‘domestic terrorism’?
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has worked alongside President Donald Trump during his second term, heading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Musk’s push to streamline government operations has faced significant criticism, especially as federal budget cuts have led to the loss of thousands of government jobs.
As the resistance continues, several of the cars and properties branded with Tesla have been targeted and torched across the United States in what is deemed as retaliation. Last week, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi described these attacks as "nothing short of domestic terrorism."
