Attorney General Pam Bondy warned Rep. Jasmine Crockett a few days after he attracted attention from the Trump Alliance for suggesting that Democrats should “fall” Elon Musk to “step very carefully.”
“She's an elected civil servant, so nothing will happen to Elon Musk, so she needs to step on very carefully and we're going to fight to protect all Tesla owners in this country.”
She reiterated her previous pledge that widespread violence against Tesla owners and dealers (who saw electric cars engulfed in flames and tainted by hostile images) would “stop.”

Crockett's remarks came during a nationwide call with Tesla's takedown movement. Tesla owners are self-proclaimed “peaceful protest platforms” that require Tesla owners to sell their vehicles and everyone to throw away stock from EV providers.
“March 29th, that's my birthday,” Crockett told the group in connection with “Global Day of Action,” which is scheduled to return to work.
“All I want to see is that all I want to happen on my birthday is that Elon is being dropped off,” she added. “I learned while I was on the Doge Oversight Committee that there is only one person my staff now understand, and that language is money.”
Tim Waltz says he was joking when he chuckled at Tesla's stock decline: “These people don't have a sense of humor.”

Crockett I made it even more clear Her call for action is “non-violence” and about figuratively “fighting” for democracy.
“We are peaceful and loving people and we know that this is not about violence,” she partly added.
Meanwhile, Republicans accused Crockett of inciting violence against EV providers with her rhetoric.

Three people accused of damaging Teslas and the EV charging station amid the Department of Justice's crackdown on violence are in prison for up to 20 years on suspicion of “domestic terrorism.”
“People need to know that the three currently detained have serious and quick consequences… We haven't separated from these accusations, especially when this is a collaborative effort, we see everything. This is domestic terrorism,” Bondy said.
