Fox News: CHRISTOPHER RUFO: Tesla terror campaign is terrible and Trump needs to stop it
Elon Musk's influence in American life is significant, with his companies leading in various industries and his ownership of X impacting political discourse. Left-wing activists have targeted Musk, organizing protests and acts of vandalism against Tesla, viewing him as a symbol of wealth and capitalism.
This campaign reflects a shift in the Left's narrative from an anti-racist stance to an anti-wealth perspective, fueled by economic resentment. The Tesla takedown may succeed due to consumer fear, potentially impacting Tesla's sales and stock value. The administration must protect Musk and his companies from political intimidation.

The Israeli government views Hungary's withdrawal as a moral stance against perceived bias at the ICC, contrasting it with South Africa's actions, which they argue have politically targeted Israel. Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has been praised for his support of Israel's right to self-defense against terrorism.
