Elon Musk and Joe Biden have teased each other in the past
New Delhi:
Tesla CEO and “X” boss Elon Musk has accused the US Joe Biden administration of “importing voters” and “creating a national security threat.” Musk added that “it’s very possible that the groundwork is being laid for something worse than 9/11” – a reference to the September 2001 terrorist attacks by al-Qaeda that killed nearly 3,000 people.
Musk made the remarks today while sharing a screenshot of the Daily Mail report on his X account. The title reads: “The Biden administration acknowledges that there is a national security “loophole” in secretly airlifting 320,000 immigrants into the United States to reduce the number of people crossing the border.
This administration is both importing voters and posing a threat to national security through unvetted illegal immigration.

In an accompanying post, Musk wrote: “This administration is both importing voters and posing a threat to national security through unvetted illegal immigration. Quite possibly setting the stage for something worse than 9/11 .Just a matter of time”.
The Tesla CEO does not like the US president, and the two often taunt each other. But this is a more serious charge that could spark an argument.
Musk has in the past accused the Biden administration of bias against Tesla and claimed that U.S. electric vehicle policy favors competitors such as General Motors Co., which has unionized employees. “This is not the friendliest government. It seems to be controlled by unions,” Musk said in 2021.
Last year, the White House slammed Musk for supporting what it called “horrible” anti-Semitic conspiracy theories.
Earlier in 2022, Musk described Biden as “a soggy puppet” after the White House ignored him for attending a meeting of business leaders. Months later, when asked about the Tesla CEO’s negative predictions for the U.S. economy, Biden said “he’s lucky to have a trip to the moon” — NASA has chosen Musk’s SpaceX to build for the trip to the moon lander.
