ELON MUSK Death Threat Rocks Trump Cabinet: Fear and Anger Erupt Over Free Speech Attack
— Elon Musk shocked the nation during a live Trump Cabinet meeting when he revealed he’s been hit with serious death threats. Musk said these threats have grown as he’s become more vocal in supporting President Trump. He suggested powerful groups might be behind it, blaming his push for free speech and backing of conservative policies.
The news set off a storm in the media. Some wondered if extremists or foreign enemies could be responsible. President Trump acted fast, promising federal protection for Musk and saying he’ll hunt down anyone trying to silence “American patriots.”
After Musk spoke, the meeting shifted from talking about jobs to focusing on political violence against top supporters of the administration. Senior officials warned this could scare everyday Americans from standing up for conservative values.
Federal agencies haven’t shared details about new security plans but say investigations are underway. Despite everything, Musk says he won’t back down — he’ll keep fighting for American innovation and free speech no matter what comes his way.
