Musk melts down over stories that Tesla would possibly give him the boot

Multibillionaire Elon Musk could be voluntarily stepping away from the so-called Division of Authorities Effectivity, however his grip on the troubled automaker Tesla is a special story—or so he’d such as you to consider.

In yet one more late-night social media meltdown, Musk lashed out at The Wall Road Journal over a report claiming that Tesla’s board is actively trying to find his alternative as CEO. 

The Journal, owned by the Murdoch household, reported that the eight-member board had reached out to a number of govt search companies and even narrowed its efforts to 1 high agency—all whereas Musk was off taking part in bureaucratic demolition man at DOGE.


A banner is left exterior a Tesla showroom throughout an indication, in Lisbon, Portugal, on March 9.

Musk, predictably, denied the story together with his common mixture of bluster and all-caps fury.

“It is an EXTREMELY BAD BREACH OF ETHICS that the [Journal] would publish a DELIBERATELY FALSE ARTICLE and fail to include an unequivocal denial,” from the board, he wrote in a single submit. 

Then, round 2 AM Jap Time on Thursday, he added, “WSJ is a discredit to journalism.”

A spokesperson for Tesla additionally issued a denial, however the Journal hasn’t pulled the story, suggesting that its reporters are assured they’ve seen or heard one thing the board doesn’t need public.

And admittedly, it’s not laborious to see why Tesla could be quietly on the lookout for a manner out.

The corporate is coming off a brutal quarter, with slumping gross sales, sliding income, and rising anxiousness over President Donald Trump’s tariffs. And Musk’s semi-sabbatical from Tesla to run DOGE hasn’t helped. Whereas he’s been busy slashing federal jobs and gutting public applications, Tesla has been shedding market share, investor confidence, and—primarily based on current protests—public goodwill. 

However Musk isn’t simply unpopular in america; Tesla’s international gross sales are tanking, too. 

In France, gross sales fell 59.4% final month in comparison with the yr earlier than, and in Denmark, they plummeted 67.2%. And Reuters reported that, whereas competitors from cheaper electrical autos is chopping into Tesla’s market share in Europe, Musk’s open embrace of far-right politics has additionally fueled protests world wide.

Not even Trump’s try to show the White Home right into a glorified Tesla showroom has reversed the harm. Musk’s aspect gig at DOGE isn’t only a distraction anymore—it’s a legal responsibility.

Musk has stated that he plans to spend extra time at Tesla and cut back his work at DOGE, however that could be too little, too late. Demonstrators have focused Tesla over Musk’s function within the Trump administration, whereas the corporate scrambles to maintain patrons . It’s now sending determined texts, conducting surveys, and even providing money incentives to promote extra vehicles. 

Desperation isn’t an awesome look for an organization as soon as billed as the way forward for transportation.

If the Journal’s reporting proves unsuitable, it wouldn’t be the primary time that Musk or somebody in Trump’s orbit has butted heads with the outlet. The paper’s editorial board has lately criticized Trump’s Ukraine coverage and his petty resolution to strip safety clearances from former officers. 

Musk turning the complete drive of his rage on the Journal solely provides to the chaos. 

Nonetheless, the larger image stays: Musk is a legal responsibility to Tesla. The White Home figured this out and has pushed him apart. The query now’s whether or not Tesla’s board has the nerve to do the identical.

At this price, it’s not simply DOGE that’s collapsing on Musk’s watch—it’s Tesla, too.
