Elon Musk issued a chilling warning to Rep. Maxine Waters after she urged the U.S. government to investigate and deport Melania Trump.
Elon Musk recently made headlines for his comments directed at Representative Maxine Waters.
This situation arose when Waters suggested that the U.S. government should investigate Melania Trump’s citizenship status.
Musk’s response was striking and raised eyebrows across the political landscape.
Rep. Maxine Waters demands US Government investigate and deport Melania Trump
During a rally opposing the Department of Government Efficiency in Los Angeles, Maxine Waters expressed her views on Melania Trump.
She questioned the legality of Melania’s citizenship, suggesting that the government should investigate her background.
Waters pointed out that if former President Donald Trump wants to scrutinize the citizenship of others, he should start with Melania.
She said: “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.”
“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 went on to tell the crowd.

Musk, a prominent figure in the tech world and co-head of the DOGE department, reacted to Waters’ statements.
He issued a warning, saying, “At some point, the many crimes of Maxine Waters will catch up to her.”
This comment sparked controversy, as Waters does not have a criminal record.
Musk’s words seemed to escalate the conflict between the two. Many people were surprised by the intensity of his response, especially given the nature of Waters’ original comments.
Background on Melania Trump’s citizenship
Melania Trump, originally from Slovenia, became a U.S. citizen in 2006. Her journey to citizenship involved sponsoring her parents for green cards after she obtained her own citizenship.
This fact is important in understanding the context of Waters’ comments.
The current political climate includes discussions about immigration and citizenship laws. Recently, former President Trump signed an executive order that targets birthright citizenship.
This order could change the way citizenship is granted to children born in the U.S., especially if their parents do not have legal status.
Implications of Trump’s executive order
Trump’s executive order could have significant implications for many families in the U.S.
The 14th Amendment of the Constitution states that anyone born on American soil is a citizen. However, Trump’s order challenges this principle.
It suggests that children born in the U.S. may not automatically receive citizenship if their parents are not lawful residents or citizens.
“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.”

This change may impact many families. Waters’ remarks on Melania Trump likely highlighted inconsistencies in the immigration debate.
She used Melania’s situation to question the fairness of the policies being discussed.
