Elon Musk sent a strange warning to Democrat Rep. Maxine Waters after she recommended that First Lady Melania Trump should be investigated and potentially deported from the US.
Musk attacked Waters after a clip of her addressing a rally against the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) in Los Angeles, California, went viral on social media.
Musk reacted to one of the viral videos of Walters on X. “At some point, the many crimes of Maxine Waters will catch up to her,” he stated.

Walter’s video, which was shared by Fox News commentator Sean Hannity on Tuesday and “End Wokeness” on X features Waters issuing a message for President Donald Trump, “If he wants to start looking so closely to find those who were born here and their parents were undocumented, maybe he ought to first look at Melania.”
Continuing her tirade against the First Lady, she said that nobody knows if her parents were documented or not, adding that “maybe we better just take a look.”
Waters was alluding to the executive order that Trump signed on his first day of office, which outlaws birthright citizenship.

The 14th Amendment states, “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.”
Waters participated in Saturday’s demonstration in Los Angeles, where hundreds of people came to express disapproval of the Trump administration’s and the DOGE’s attempts to reduce the size of the federal government.
“We are here because we are not going to let Trump, we’re not going to let Elon Musk, his co-president, or anybody else take the United States Constitution down,” Waters told the crowd.
