Summary

Elon Musk accused Alexander Vindman, a key witness in Trumpā€™s first impeachment, of treason on social media, suggesting he should face ā€œthe appropriate penalty.ā€

Muskā€™s comments followed Vindmanā€™s claims that Musk may have shared sensitive information with Russiaā€™s Putin and used Twitter for disinformation.

Vindman denied the accusations and called Muskā€™s remarks baseless.

Critics condemned Muskā€™s statements as dangerous, especially given his ties to Trumpā€™s incoming administration.

Musk provided no evidence for his claims, reviving past allegations against Vindman of ā€œdual loyaltyā€ rooted in antisemitic tropes.

    I hope we all live to see Don and Elonā€™s treason trials and the debates over hanging before and after.

      Not sure thatā€™s going to happen.

      A) Theyā€™ll probably opt to take the Hitler way out

      B) If they donā€™t, they are liable to be publicly executed and mutilated

      Thereā€™s no stopping this train. The US cannot save itself and no country is going to step in until weā€™re at a full blown WW3 situation.

        Itā€™s all in your [their] hands.

        Whether we will or not is a matter of what America is like.

        I am not making a judgment call here, just an observation.
