JUST IN: Dem blasted for “Unhinged” Elon Musk rant telling him to “Go back to South Africa”

A Democratic Rep. drew criticism on social media Monday when she told DOGE Chief Elon Musk to “Go back to South Africa” and asked “What the hell” he is doing in the United States.

“It was interesting yesterday I was watching a video of an interview of Elon Musk with someone where he said that the Italians should stay in Italy and the Chinese should stay in China, my question to Elon Musk is what the hell are you doing here in America?” Democratic Congresswoman Nydia Velazquez (N.Y.) said outside the HUD Department on Monday evening.

Velazquez was repeating a claim promoted on social media about an Elon Musk interview in 2023 that liberal fact-checker Snopes deemed to be “false.”

Conservatives on social media blasted Velazquez for her comments on Musk’s immigration status.

“Unhinged,” Bobby LaValley, Rapid Response Director for House Speaker Mike Johnson, posted on X.

“Completely unhinged…,” the White House Rapid Response team added in a post on X.

Elon has broken their brains so much that Democrats are now embracing nativism,” White House Rapid Response’s Greg Price posted on X.

“Nydia Velasquez has finally found an immigrant she doesn’t like,” Claremont Institute Senior Fellow Jeremy Carl posted on X. “Not the tens of thousands of illegals in her district who live off of our tax dollars – but America’s greatest entrepreneur, a White immigrant. When the left tells you who they are believe them.”
