Throughout the United States, Tesla’s facilities and electric vehicles are facing a surge of protests and aggressive acts tied to Elon Musk’s involvement in the Trump administration. Incidents range from spray-painted messages on a Tesla dealership sign to Molotov cocktails hurled onto a dealership lot, and even Tesla charging stations being set ablaze, signaling a sharp escalation in hostility toward the company.
Several activist groups aligned with the Democratic Party have orchestrated assaults on Tesla locations, employees, and vehicles. Just last night, a group of CyberTrucks was set on fire in Seattle. The actions reflect growing desperation and aggression from some Democratic factions.
Police and local news outlets report at least 10 separate incidents of vandalism targeting Tesla vehicles, dealerships, or charging infrastructure in recent weeks, highlighting the intense opposition Musk has encountered since assuming a groundbreaking position in the federal government.
In New York, demonstrators gathered outside a Tesla showroom, shouting, “Clean air matters, not billionaire affairs!” Elon Musk, a key White House advisor and holder of roughly 13% of Tesla’s shares, oversees the electric vehicle giant. Comparable scenes unfolded in Portland, Oregon, where protesters voiced, “Elon Musk must be stopped!”

The FBI launched a task force Monday to try to nail the criminals setting fire to Tesla vehicles and charging stations — calling the acts “domestic terrorism” and eyeing an anarchy blog calling for more.
The bureau has received reports of 48 instances so far this month related to Tesla vehicles, dealerships and charging stations and is investigating at least seven of them in conjunction with local law enforcement, The Post has learned.
The agency’s newly formed 10-person task force will deploy ATF personnel — special agents and intelligence analysts from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives in the Treasury Department — and personnel from the FBI’s Counterterrorism Division, including its Domestic Terrorism Operations Section and Weapons of Mass Destruction.
