New details are emerging in what is quickly becoming one of the most politically charged confrontations between America’s wealthiest entrepreneur and far-left activist networks.
Elon Musk has accused five radical groups — including the Democratic Socialists of America, Rise & Resist, and others — of orchestrating violent, coordinated attacks on Tesla facilities, with some funding allegedly flowing from ActBlue and the Open Society Foundations, linked to billionaire George Soros.
Musk: “We’ve Identified the Groups Behind the Attacks”
In a statement that’s already gone viral, Musk declared:
“An investigation has identified five ActBlue-funded groups accountable for Tesla ‘protests’...”
These groups, he claims, were behind multiple demonstrations — and some turned violent.
DOJ: Firebomb Attacks Were Real. And Charges Are Coming.
Backing Musk’s claim, Attorney General Pamela Bondi announced charges against three individuals for allegedly firebombing Tesla vehicles and charging stations with Molotov cocktails.
“The era of committing crimes without repercussions has concluded,” Bondi said.
“If you partake in this wave of domestic terrorism… the DOJ will incarcerate you.”
Who Are the Groups Involved?
Musk named these five:
-
Troublemakers
-
Disruption Project
-
Rise & Resist
-
Indivisible Project
-
Democratic Socialists of America (DSA)
Some of these groups have claimed responsibility for nonviolent protest activity, including anti-capitalist messaging outside Tesla properties.
Others — like Troublemakers — were connected to more aggressive rhetoric, stating:
“We cannot remain passive while racial capitalism and neocolonialism ravage this planet.”
Funding Trails: Is Soros Involved?
Open Society denied direct involvement, saying:
“Our grantees operate independently and must comply with U.S. law.”
But Speaker Mike Johnson isn’t buying it. He responded:
“They’ve gone from labeling Elon a racist to outright domestic terrorism.”
The Politics Behind the Violence
Tesla has long been seen as a symbol of innovation and disruption — but under Musk’s leadership, it has also become a lightning rod for far-left anger, especially after his appointments to the now-defunct Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and his social media crusades against woke politics.
What Happens Next?
With arrests underway and federal prosecutors pressing for 20-year sentences, this isn’t just about cars — it’s about the clash between Musk, the state, and the shadow networks behind America’s most extreme activism.
Is this the first real pushback against domestic protest violence? Or just the beginning of something bigger?
