Musk says 'trans rage' is behind attacks on Tesla

Elon Musk took aim at trans activists for the vandalism attacks being suffered by Tesla owners and dealers across the country. The South African businessman shared reports on his account that a large number of those arrested for these assaults are transgender or non-binary people.

The DOGE leader had already claimed in several posts that groups of extreme leftists targeted his car company as a scapegoat for his involvement with the Trump administration.

Musk notes that transgender people are more likely to be violent

Last Thursday, Musk shared a user's post echoing a Daily Caller investigation indicating that three of the four people arrested for vandalizing Teslas consider themselves transgender or non-binary. In response, the South African mogul noted that "The probability of a trans person being violent appears to be vastly higher than non-trans. Hormone injections cause extreme emotional volatility. That is simply a fact."

'Transgender activists are so overrepresented in violent terror attacks'

He also shared Mike Benz's post with the original Daily Caller post highlighting the overrepresentation of transgender activists "in violent terror attacks."

Warning to vandals: attacks on Teslas to be considered 'domestic terrorism'

In the wake of Pam Bondi's call for the arrest of three people for the attacks against Teslas and labeling the attacks as "domestic terrorism," The Daily Caller investigated the people who had been brought to court on this charge, finding that three of the four were transgender or non-binary.

The identities and backgrounds of those arrested, revealed

Justin Thomas Nelson, 42, known as Lucy Grace Nelson, was arrested on February 24 on charges of "in possession of additional incendiary devices and 'materials attributed to vandalism,'" police told The New York Post.

It was not the first time Nelson had been in trouble with officers for similar reasons. As The Daily Caller notes, he had already been arrested on "one count of 'malicious destruction of property' in Lyons, Colo. on Jan. 29, according to the DOJ. An additional four instances in February regarding possible arson, graffiti and 'incendiary devices' regarding Nelson caught the attention of the police."

The second on the list, "Erin L. White, 27, was apprehended and charged with felony criminal damage to property and trespass, according to Fox. White allegedly vandalized a Tesla center in Illinois, leaving messages criticizing President Donald Trump and Elon Musk and advocating for 'trans rights.' White has used she/they pronouns, according to her LinkedIn profile and other reports."

Last but not least comes Adam Matthew Lansky, 41. According to The Daily Caller, Lansky "was formally accused of possessing Molotov cocktails while attempting to destroy Tesla property at a Salem, Ore. car dealership, according to a DOJ press release. ... Social media records show Lansky allegedly went by the alias Allison Tesla on X, with the content featuring trans pornography."
