FIRST ON FOX: Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly of Arizona, who ditched his Tesla last month, refused to label recent violence at Tesla dealerships in protest of Elon Musk’s DOGE efforts as "domestic terrorism," a term that has been used by Republicans and the Justice Department.

"Certainly vandalism and it's a crime," Kelly told Fox News Digital when asked if the violence at Tesla dealerships in response to DOGE amounted to terrorism.

"It's a significant crime, especially if you're going to firebomb a car or vandalize somebody's vehicle or even key somebody's vehicle. They shouldn't be doing it. And these should be investigated. And if people are caught, they should be prosecuted."

Attorney General Pam Bondi and Elon Musk have both called the violence "domestic terrorism" in recent weeks.

When pressed by Fox News Digital on not using the word terrorism, Kelly said, "I think we've got to tread lightly on the whole ‘terrorism’ word."

"We sometimes try to expand this thing, it kind of loses its focus. But when folks are vandalizing people's vehicles or dealerships, it is wrong and it's dangerous. Somebody is going to get hurt. And for that reason, we should put, you know, the full force of law enforcement to this problem and prosecute people."

Kelly’s wife was shot in the head, but he suffered brain damage.

Both he and his twin are tools.
