Elon Musk Threatens Legal Action Against Ro Khanna After Congressman's Outrageous Lie
Western Journal ^ | June 22, 2026 | Michael Schwarz

Posted on 06/23/2026 4:12:17 AM PDT by Red Badger

Elon Musk, owner of the social media platform X, has had it.

According to the New York Post, in a recent appearance on the leftist “I’ve Had It” podcast with insufferable host Jennifer Welch, Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna of California insisted that Musk “needs to answer” for the “4.5 million children around the world who he possibly sentenced to death by dismantling USAID” while Musk ran President Donald Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency, known as DOGE, in early 2025.

“Time to sue this liar,” Musk wrote Tuesday on X.

But Musk, who recently became the world’s first trillionaire, did not stop at the threat of a lawsuit. In fact, he made Khanna’s name synonymous with congressional stock trading.

“The standard applied by DOGE was very simple and easy: Provide contact information for the recipients of aid, so that we can confirm it is not fraudulent. The reality is that money was being sent to corrupt politicians under the guise of aid! Liars and stock insider traders like Ro the Robber should be in prison!!” Musk wrote.

Indeed, the world’s richest man seemed to like the nickname he coined for Khanna.

Maybe Elon will change his mind about importing endless waves of Indians

And by “4.5 million children around the world who he possibly sentenced to death by dismantling USAID” Ro means the Democrats can no longer funnel money to their teams anymore.

And since when is America responsible for the well being of children in the world?

The Democrats invented Government sponsored Law-fare.

Musk has about the same resources as government to take the war to them.

These politicians think they are invulnerable because of their office.

Ro didn't think that attack through. Poke the bear you get the teeth.

Trump needs to go full Pinochet before it’s too late.

Ro Khanna could not care less about 4.5 million children around the world (and how did he arrive at that number?). It is supposed to make him look like he cares.

Good luck with that. I know someone who works at the Tesla factory in Austin. He tells me that 7 or 8 out of 10 people on the floor are Indians. All the supervisors are as well and show favoritism to their fellow interlopers. He said most are lazy and barely work and the quality is lacking and have a high defect rate on the line.

Seems to be a lot of controversy about Musk. I am not a fan of his products, the Tesla car, but it seems that Musk as a person, is on the right track at least part of the time. Finding & eliminating waste within the government is certainly going to get you a lot of enemies. One of those is apparently Ro Khanna, a man I’m not sure I would trust, partly as he is a Democrat, a party that seems to have no particular political platform these days except their hatred of Republicans in general.

“4.5 million children around the world who he possibly sentenced to death by dismantling USAID” Notice that the media never prefaces any outlandish claims made by democrat with the caveat: "without evidence". They will preface everything President Trump says with that phrase, but they never do that for anything democrats say such as "voter ID will prevent black people from voting" or that "Trump colluded with Russia to win the 2016 election" or any of the litany of claims made by HRC as to why she lost in 2016. No evidence for any of those nonsensical claims or many others, but the burden of proof is only ever placed on President Trump or anyone on the right.

While I agree the threats are real and time is short, let’s not reach for Pinochet. Invoke Lincoln instead.

During the Civil War he suspended habeas corpus to detain those actively undermining the Union when rebellion made it necessary although I believe the South had the right to secede. That’s the American precedent for decisive action in extremis — not importing a foreign dictatorship. Trump should use the tools the Constitution and history actually give us to put down and remove the embeds in government and our institutions.

Absolutely disgusting. I never trusted Elon even if sometimes he says the right thing.

The process alone will bankrupt that POS.

... plus the fact that the boy attacked the world’s richest African-American. Bad idea all around; and the boy is about to find out why.
