Elon Musk responded late Monday to Senator Alex Padilla’s demand for an investigation, and he did it with the sort of crude one-liner that makes Washington’s press office reach for the smelling salts. Padilla posted “INVESTIGATE ELON MUSK” on X. Musk answered, “Investigate your wiener,” turning the California Democrat’s grand declaration into a brief exchange better suited to a schoolyard than a Senate feed.The Gateway Pundit report says Democrats have made clear they intend to pursue Musk if they win the House or Senate this November. The stated targets include SpaceX, Tesla, and Musk’s work at the Department of Government Efficiency.
