Elon Musk, once an ally of Barack Obama, has shifted politically, now supporting Republicans and facing backlash from Democrats. Following his involvement with the Department of Government Efficiency, Musk has been labeled with extreme comparisons, while also experiencing vandalism against his Tesla properties. His recent financial backing for a Republican candidate in Wisconsin highlights his growing political influence amid ongoing tensions with the left.
Elon Musk dismissed rumors of stepping back from politics, labeling them "fake news," despite investor hopes following a disappointing quarterly sales report from Tesla. His recent political endorsements, including a failed $25 million campaign in Wisconsin, have raised concerns about his impact on the company's brand, with analysts warning that his continued involvement in politics could harm Tesla's reputation further. Amid protests and declining popularity, investors are increasingly anxious about the future of the automaker.
Elon Musk is set to step back from his role as a special government employee with the "department of government efficiency" (Doge) but will remain a friend and adviser to Donald Trump and JD Vance. Despite Musk's 130-day service cap expiring in late May, the work at Doge is expected to continue until 2026, as per Trump's executive order. This news follows a recent judicial defeat for a Musk-backed conservative judge in Wisconsin, highlighting the political stakes surrounding Musk's involvement.
Elon Musk will continue as a "friend and adviser" to the White House after his role with DOGE, according to Vice President JD Vance. Despite reports of Musk's imminent departure, Vance emphasized that significant work remains, and Musk's involvement will extend beyond his initial six-month commitment.
Megyn Kelly commented on Elon Musk's potential departure from his government role, contrasting his political engagement with Taylor Swift's recent backlash for her political stance. She emphasized that Musk's involvement is significant, having helped Trump’s election, while noting the challenges Tesla faces amid political attacks. Despite reports of Musk stepping down, both he and the White House have dismissed these claims, asserting he will continue his work as a special government employee until his project is complete.
Elon Musk's absence from Trump's 'Liberation Day' event has sparked speculation about his future role in the administration. Reports suggest Musk may step back from leading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) amid frustrations from Trump's inner circle regarding his unpredictability. Despite their close ties, both men are reportedly considering a shift in Musk's involvement as he returns to his business ventures.
Elon Musk has amplified a conspiracy theory regarding the Wisconsin Supreme Court election, claiming it was rigged after liberal judge Susan Crawford defeated Trump-backed Brad Schimel. Republican lobbyist Roger Stone alleged illegal financing of Crawford's campaign and suggested that Democrats manipulated mail-in voting to secure victory. Meanwhile, Musk's political role is reportedly ending soon, although he has denied these claims, and Tesla shares rose following the news of his potential departure.
Elon Musk may step down as head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) by the end of May, coinciding with the conclusion of his 130-day term as a special government employee. Despite public and political pressure, both Musk and President Trump have denied reports of his resignation, asserting that he will leave once his work is complete. The future of Musk's role in the White House remains uncertain as he reevaluates his political strategies following recent electoral outcomes.
Elon Musk faces significant setbacks, losing $100 billion in three months, with Tesla reporting its largest sales drop ever at 13%. His political maneuvers, including a failed $20 million bet on a pro-Trump candidate, have tarnished Tesla's brand among its core eco-conscious customers. As Musk's influence wanes, he is expected to conclude his role as a "special government employee" by late May or June, prompting hopes for a renewed focus on Tesla's market share and innovation.
Raiffeisen, a key sponsor of the Austrian Football Association (ÖFB), is criticizing the association's leadership and pushing for a new presidential candidate ahead of the May 18 election. The group has threatened to reconsider its partnership due to perceived unprofessionalism. Potential candidates include Brigitte Annerl, who could become the first female president, and Christian Jauk, a favorite yet to officially announce his candidacy.
