SpaceX, X, and Tesla owner Elon Musk this week warned Democrats that he was prepared to play hardball with them as some lawmakers have suggested he could face criminal investigations should they return to power in the midterm elections.Musk has faced scrutiny in recent weeks over his alleged interference with Ukraine’s use of Starlink, a product of his company that Kyiv uses to coordinate its forces amid the war with Russia. But Musk appears unlikely to be a passive player in that potential drama.
“Live by the sword, die by the sword. Those who pick fights with me should understand that I will find out who is really pulling the strings and come for them, not just their puppets,” he posted on X.
Musk responded to a Politico article entitled “Capitol agenda: Dem gavels are coming for Elon Musk.”
The wealthiest man in the world, Musk has faced a litany of legal challenges, including several controversies over his own social media posts. But Democrats are likely interested in his involvement in the disruption of Starlink to Ukraine and his time as head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
