Elon Musk threatened to suicide former Democrat Jamal Bowman (D-NY) after former Skade members called him a “Nazi” and a “thief” while appearing on CNN on Thursday.
“I had enough. The lawsuit was inbound,” Musk posted to X on Friday in response to Bowman's aired roundtable discussion.
“Americans are uninterested in Elon Musk and Elon Musk's position,” Bowman, who lost the Democratic primary last July after a series of anti-Semitism controversies and a Capitol stunt that led to criminal convictions, told a panel of commentators.
“And how do we know? They fired tens of thousands of people, so it was challenged in court. The court said people had to go back.
Host Abby Phillip said, “Former Rep. Bowman, I just said a bit, and your opinion on Elon Musk is your opinion on Elon Musk.”
“That's my opinion,” replied Bowman.
Left-wing media previously accused Musk of giving a “Nazi salute” when he spoke to the crowd on his inauguration day. The suggestion was wrong as Musk first slapped him in the heart, stretched out his arms and explained the gesture saying, “My heart is leaving to you.” Even in ADL, the moment was “troubled” but not malicious.
“His mother, May Musk, has called on his son to sue CNN and other outlets to sell the 'Nazi Salute' story,” Fox News It has been reported.
Many of the tech billionaire platforms supported the possibility that Musk could sue Bowman for his remarks.
“Sue him! The honor losses against conservatives cannot be kept modest or it won't end,” Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) said from his personal account.
“Fighting back!” said Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC).
“Criticizing a crime is not a protected opinion. CNN risks being held responsible for attracting guests who repeat potentially slanderous claims,” said journalist and author Andy Ngo.
