Elon Musk Says “Then It Is War” After Somali TikToker Appears to Threaten His Life in Viral Video — TikToker Now Claims Her Statement Was Taken Out of Context

Elon Musk issued a stark warning after a viral TikTok clip appeared to show a Somali TikTok user making a chilling remark about his life.

The video, which rapidly spread across social media platforms, shows an unidentified TikTok user livestreaming while playing a video of Elon Musk on her phone.

After speaking in a non-English language, the user switched to English and stated: “I wouldn’t worry too much about him. He about to die.” WATCH:

Musk responded directly on X with a terse message that quickly went viral, later pinning it to the top of his account: “Then it is war.”

The woman seen in the livestream has now been identified as Fardowsa Muhumed.

Publicly available profiles indicate that Muhumed is a KIPP Kansas City alum. According to biographical material shared by the network, she attended Frontier STEM High School and KIPP Kansas City, and has expressed plans to pursue a pre-med track at the University of Missouri–Kansas City.

Her stated goal, per those profiles, is to work in medicine to address racial inequities experienced by refugee mothers in the healthcare system.

The same materials describe her as academically high-achieving and civically involved, participating in health-care exposure programs, organizing a cultural fashion show to highlight diversity within her high school, volunteering as a translator for schools and families, working nearly 20 hours a week, and helping care for nieces and nephews.

Regardless of résumé or intentions, remarks that appear to threaten the life of a prominent American industrial leader should trigger serious scrutiny.

Utah Senator Mike Lee wrote: “Deport her immediately. She shouldn’t be here.”

Now Muhumed is playing the victim card.

She claims the viral moment that triggered Elon Musk’s response was taken out of context and weaponized against her.

Muhumed: “If you told me a week ago that my name and Elon Musk’s name would be spoken in the same breath, I wouldn’t have believed you. But here I am today. Hello. If you know who I am, then you know why this video has to be made.

On December 31, 2025, my life took a tragic turn. I was badly misinterpreted and misheard in a non-viral clip. In that clip, my words—and what they were translated to—were taken greatly out of context. I want to make myself clear: I never intended or even aimed to threaten the life of Elon Musk. I am not a person who carries hate.

The media, and Elon himself, have taken my words completely out of context, and it has been deeply hurtful to watch how that has turned into me being dehumanized and painted as a villain. The clip that went viral was taken from a longer live segment and edited in a way that removed the heart of what I was trying to say.

During that stream, some of my supporters asked me about my thoughts on Elon Musk in relation to his health after viral photos of him in swim shorts surfaced.

My intention was never to mock, insult, or be cruel in any way. What I was trying to express came from my personal experience.

As a person gets older, health becomes more important, and it is something we should all take seriously and treat with care.

My message was meant to encourage kindness toward our bodies and toward one another if we want to live long, luxurious lives.

Instead, that message was twisted, stripped of its context, and turned into something it was never meant to be.

A few people even went ahead and asked Elon’s AI, Grok, what it thought about my language in the video. I would display the response here.

As you can see, Grok agrees—this was more interpretive and dismissive, rather than a literal threat.

Elon Musk tweeted the same viral video twice, hours apart. I assumed the first time didn’t get the reaction he wanted. In one tweet, he said, and I quote, “Wonderful people.” In the more recent tweet, which is currently still pinned at the top of his profile, he stated, and I quote, “Then it is war.”

While Somali hate is at an all-time high right now, Elon is a very powerful man with an endless amount of supporters.

This will forever be a losing match for me. Elon Musk is coming at me with full force. I don’t remember when I signed up to be a scapegoat, but okay.

This tweet has caused me great discomfort. My intentions were never to make Elon Musk uncomfortable or feel unsafe in any way. I don’t know how a billionaire can be scared of a little girl who doesn’t have even a fraction of his power—but go off, king.

My words have been villainized, and my voice has been stolen. Elon Musk’s life and mine are worlds apart. I do not have nearly the same resources he is fortunate enough to have. This entire situation has put me in real danger. My private information is being shared all over the internet, and I have received an endless number of threats because of this miscommunication.

I am truly in fear for my future. But what a beautiful way to start the year.”

The complete and utter contempt this Somali Fata**er
holds for America and Americans cannot be understated.

This Somalian dork——a freeloading jerk——actually thinks
Americans will accept her contrived “save-my-a** “ excuse.

No frickin’ way.

Send this Somalian lowlife back where she belongs.

She cant come here, eat sleep and drink free, belittle our
heroes, go to our schools, and hold Americans in contempt.

Get her outta here........ subito.

You do not get to urge political assassination without consequences. It should be a crime and it must be enforced immediately.

Roflol- so she not only threatened his life, she’s excusing it by calling him fat and out of shape?

If I were Elon, I’d hire an army of researchers to dig even deeper into the fraud.

I’m hoping Musk pours a lot of resources into creating republican majorities in Minnesota and other states.

After speaking in a non-English language, the user switched to English and stated: “I wouldn’t worry too much about him. He about to die.”

The non-English part was “His lipids are out of whack, and his cholesterol is off the charts.”

Seems legit. /s

I read yesterday that it was Obama’s project.
