Sheryl Crow said she’s sold her Tesla and will donate the proceeds to the National Public Radio in a defiant gesture against billionaire Elon Musk.
The Grammy-winning musician, with hit songs like “Strong Enough” and “If It Makes You Happy,” posted a video to Instagram Friday of her Tesla loaded on the back of a flatbed truck.
As the truck pulls away, Crow can be seen waving goodbye.
“My parents always said… you are who you hang out with,” Crow wrote in the post’s caption. “There comes a time when you have to decide who you are willing to align with. So long Tesla.”
Musk, the CEO of Tesla and an unelected private citizen, has taken a hatchet to government agencies in recent weeks as he heads up the new Department of Government Efficiency. Musk has vowed to strip the government of much of its workforce as layoffs continue.
Fourteen states filed a lawsuit in federal court on Thursday, accusing President Donald Trump of giving Musk ― who is referred to as a “21st century tech baron” ― unchecked power.
“The sweeping authority now vested in a single unelected and unconfirmed individual is antithetical to the nation’s entire constitutional structure,” the lawsuit says.
Crow said she’ll be donating the proceeds from the Tesla to National Public Radio.
“Money donated to @npr, which is under threat by President Musk, in hopes that the truth will continue to find its way to those willing to know the truth,” Crow posted.
