Watters: The left is losing its mind over Elon Musk

[0:00] Elon is a very good guy. He's a very different kind of a guy. But I think people have an [0:05] obligation to protect our geniuses. You know, there aren't that many of them. [0:10] President Trump got Elon Musk back as Democrats made him public enemy number one. The left is [0:16] losing their minds at the tech titan, spending millions to help Republicans in the midterms. [0:21] And they're drooling over the chance to send him a subpoena. [0:25] Under Kamala Harris, he might be in jail right now, right? He is correct. [0:30] And that's not because she's some avenging fury. It's because there's a lot of questions. [0:35] If Donald Trump loses the House and the Senate, I would worry. [0:39] These are exactly the kind of things, by the way, [0:41] that we are absolutely going to be holding aggressive oversight around. [0:45] We absolutely should be looking into how Elon Musk, [0:48] by trying to spend $300 million in the midterm elections. [0:51] He's an immigrant who came in who never really inhaled the real values of our country. [0:57] But Elon, ready for a fight, posting this on X. Live by the sword, die by the sword. [1:02] Those who pick fights with me should understand that I will find out who is [1:05] really pulling the strings and come for them, not just their puppets. [1:11] All right, so this could be a big battle, Greg. Musk versus the Democrats. [1:16] I can't believe what Rasker just said. I don't even know what that means. [1:20] What are these real values that he didn't inhale? [1:23] It's clear that they're subordinating his technological record, his humanitarian record, [1:28] for his Republican funding. You see all the selective scrutiny, [1:32] the past treatment of other billionaire donors, the timing of this witch hunt. Soros, Bloomberg, [1:39] Steyer. There was no drive to subpoena them over their influence. Also, Musk supported Obama. [1:51] He supported Hillary. They didn't trigger any intense examination. But Trump, boom. Again, [1:59] it is the funding direction. And for that, they're willing to overlook all of this stuff he did with [2:04] Neuralink, Starlink, SpaceX. He's been delivering broadband to disaster zones and remote areas. [2:11] Forget about that. They used to like that stuff. They used to like his electric cars. [2:15] They used to like everything until they started keying the cars, calling him a Nazi [2:19] and going after his dealership. The other thing, too, is they always bring up, well, [2:23] he got federal contracts. So did other firms. Those firms don't get as much intensity as he does. [2:29] So this is pure political retaliation and also deterrence. But the great thing about him [2:34] is he literally has money to burn. He can shoot billions of dollars into space. So if they want [2:41] to battle with him, he's going to fight. And you know what? That is an American value. [2:47] And they're jealous, Jackie. It's like when, you know, a girl breaks up with a guy and then the guy [2:52] gets with another girl and starts lavishing her with lots of money and luxurious goods. They get jealous. [2:59] They get jealous. And so they want to kill him. They literally want to kill him. [3:03] Wow. Are you speaking from experience? [3:05] Not me. I just know how women think. You do. [3:08] Well, you know, as far as Elon goes, you know, [3:10] and Jamie Raskin's comment about the real values of the country. I mean, [3:12] Elon Musk bought Twitter, you know, because he was upset about censorship of conservative [3:17] viewpoints. He's kind of the embodiment of what can happen in a capitalist society with free enterprise. [3:23] I mean, I think there are a lot of points about him that make him quite American, even though he came [3:28] to this country as an immigrant. As far as the investigation goes, though, I think there is [3:33] some murkiness to this Star Shield, Starlink stuff, purely because there has not been a clear answer [3:40] from the very beginning about how this slowdown happened. You had the president say he had not [3:46] spoken to Elon Musk. The Journal said that he called him this week to lift the speed cap on Star Shield [3:53] so they could resume, you know, their defensive and offensive operations in Ukraine. The Ukrainian [3:58] military depends on this. Starlink, Star Shield. Yeah, but that's just an inside the beltway story. [4:03] No real American cares about that stuff. Emily, the Democrats, no, they don't care about that stuff. [4:08] Emily, the Democrats saying that they're going to get after him for spending money in the election. [4:14] Is that illegal to donate? It is to Democrats if you donate to Republicans. [4:19] Jackie, I did. I thought that story was super interesting because what I noticed [4:23] was that the headline on the Wall Street Journal and I think the Times, too, said [4:27] Musk slows Starlink and buried in it, it says the people of Ukraine said like they have their standards [4:34] have just thrown flown out the window. But everyone should take this as a warning. Number one, that [4:40] that Kara Swisher interview got 2.4 million views of her just saying essentially that she's going to [4:45] prosecute someone because she doesn't like them, even though she has no power over the courts. [4:49] But I want everyone to understand that this is exactly what we're talking about what will happen, [4:53] that your tax dollars, your legislators will be tied up in witch hunts. They will use [4:59] the time that we pay them for to go after people that they don't like who are busy saving lives, [5:05] saving astronauts, making the blind see, and yet they don't like that he donated to President Trump. [5:11] So this is a taste, believe them what they're saying, of what's to come. [5:15] And you know how he escapes the subpoena? He just goes to Mars. So you'll never be able to serve him, Harold. [5:20] Intergalactic. [5:21] So Democrats believe that we are winning these races or if we do, if a majority is delivered to us [5:28] through the voters, that this is what people want. More and more investigations, I think we're going [5:32] to find ourselves surprised. People want us to tackle the affordability issues. Now, interestingly, [5:37] I don't believe in all these polls all the time, but I've seen three or four from different sources [5:42] showing that corruption in government is now a central concern of a vast majority of voters. [5:48] So I do think in the normal course of oversight, and I disagree with you, Jesse, that this is [5:52] this is only an inside the beltway story. Completely inside the beltway story. [5:55] If it, if it, but, but no one even cares about Ukraine anymore, Harold, let alone a satellite. [6:01] If you're paying $6.50 for a gallon diesel, you are. But my only point is this. [6:05] That's one of the reasons they may have knocked down the satellite, so they couldn't hit the refineries. [6:09] So we just let the Ukrainians continue to get killed. My only point is this. [6:12] That's none of my business. All I know is that no one cares. I know when people don't care. Trust me. [6:17] That's the only thing I know. Please do me a favor. Call for a red wave again. [6:21] If one person, one business person is able to determine whether or not [6:25] an ally of ours in a war is able to access offensive and defensive military capabilities, [6:32] something's wrong with that, whether it's a Democrat or Republican. Greg, you're right. [6:34] Democrats used to love this guy. I mean, a bunch of Democrats love them, but now he's gone on to [6:39] give money where he wants to give. If Democrats think you can investigate somebody because you don't like [6:43] whom they're giving political donations to, we're just as bad as people who criticize Soros and others. [6:48] You can't tell someone that they can't give to whomever they want to give to, [6:52] even if they gave to you before and you're giving to somebody new in the future. [6:55] I'm just saying if they go after him over Starlink, Harold, [6:58] the American people are going to see it as a waste of time. [7:00] I'm not saying it's not a legitimate avenue of oversight. [7:03] He should have to answer the question. [7:05] Also, the fact that like he gave Starlink and they're mad that it's slowing down. [7:10] He got a lot of contact though. [7:12] Yeah, yeah. But what I'm saying is he created this. It's slowing down. What is it slowing down? [7:17] What is it slowing down? It's slowing down their ability to kill people. Oh my God. [7:22] It's their ability to defend themselves. I am for Ukraine. I am for Ukraine. I'm not for Putin, period. [7:29] And the American people are not for Putin either. [7:32] All I'm saying, you guys want him to kill, you want the drones to kill more people. Just say it. [7:37] No, I want them to be able to defend themselves. And I don't want, I'll tell you this, Greg, [7:40] if you're asking what, if the Russians should only be able to kill the Ukrainians, [7:44] but the Ukrainians should not be able to fire back, I think that's wrong. And if he did what people [7:48] are suggesting he did, he endangered those people. And that question should be asked. [7:52] I am taking all of your talk time away from your next block. It's gone. [7:58] What's next? [8:00] It's gone. [8:00] Be sure to like and subscribe for all the Fox News latest on YouTube. [8:03] And catch full shows streaming now on Fox 1.
