Summary
Elon Musk accused Alexander Vindman, a key witness in Trumpās first impeachment, of treason on social media, suggesting he should face āthe appropriate penalty.ā
Muskās comments followed Vindmanās claims that Musk may have shared sensitive information with Russiaās Putin and used Twitter for disinformation.
Vindman denied the accusations and called Muskās remarks baseless.
Critics condemned Muskās statements as dangerous, especially given his ties to Trumpās incoming administration.
Musk provided no evidence for his claims, reviving past allegations against Vindman of ādual loyaltyā rooted in antisemitic tropes.
I wish i heard less about Elon Musk. Iām so tspped out on this dude. Every time a new article has Elon Musk in the title my eyes involuntarily roll over into the back of my skull as both an expression of annoyance and a self defense mechanism.
Weāre stuck between an overabundance of constant āelon musk said this concerning thingā reporting on his every move because that brings in ad revenue but not hearing about his might be worse because heās basically operating without any kind of spotlight on him.
God what profit seeking and media consolidation has done to journalism, and our collective faith in journalists is an atrocity.
For real.
