DOGE Chief Elon Musk revealed that those funding violent attacks against Tesla dealerships have been identified and suggested criminal charges would be imminent.
Musk appeared on Tuesday for an interview with the "The Five" panel to discuss a wide range of topics. Kennedy asked him about the ongoing violence directed at Tesla, wondering how Musk could possibly "talk the unhinged off the ledge."
"It is remarkable that there is so much violence," he replied. "People have burnt cars, they've fired bullets into dealerships. They have scratched swastikas into Teslas of innocent people that—that are just going about their lives."
Musk then alleged that the people firing the bullets and firebombing dealerships are just pawns in a more twisted game.
"What we actually have to get to are the people who are organizing and paying for these attacks and protests," he said. "That's who we really need to go after because the people that were actually throwing the Molotov cocktails—they are the foot soldiers, but we need to go after the generals."

Those generals had better tread carefully. As Musk notes, President Trump and Attorney General Pam Bondi have said they are tracking them down and will prosecute them to the fullest extent.
"The president has made it very clear that we're going to go after those that are paying and organizing these violent attacks, and Attorney General Bondi has said the same thing," he pointed out. "I believe that that is exactly what will happen."
Musk was then asked the million-dollar question.
"Do you know who those generals are?" wondered Kennedy.
"We do."

Musk called the attacks against Tesla "wide-scale domestic terrorism."
Numerous analysts have suggested protests, especially ones that disband at a very particular time, appear to be astroturfed by an outside source.
Democrats like Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) have aligned themselves with the “Tesla Takedown” movement, which urges the self-described “peaceful protest movement” to take on Elon Musk. The movement has been linked to over 200 nationwide protests promoted by actors, filmmakers, and lawmakers.
"Hurting Tesla is stopping Musk," they write. "Stopping Musk will help save lives and our democracy."
If an organizer offers cash to protest and you genuinely believe Musk is killing people, it might seem logical to a deranged participant to stop Tesla with a bullet or a bomb.
"They were giving out $1,000 bucks for people to protest, I think it was Tesla. They had like the rules of engagement if someone comes after you… are you organizing gangs?" popular podcast host Joe Rogan recently speculated.
"Are you guys paying money for people and then literally saying to them, 'Here's what happens if you engage in violence?' Why is that even on the table? I thought this was peaceful protesting."

Jessica Tarlov, another co-host of "The Five," tried to catch Musk by asking about possible corruption at DOGE. He quickly batted away any such suggestion.
"Everything that DOGE does is an open book," he said. "So we're—I think the most transparent action that—most transparent organization in government ever."
"Every DOGE action is listed on the website, it's also listed on the X handle. So if anyone has a concern about any one of those actions, they can bring that up, raise that."
Any action taken at DOGE can easily be monitored. The outrage, culminating in violence against Tesla, does not match what is actually happening. Who is astroturfing the violence?
That should have been the following question from "The Five."
Hopefully, we'll soon find out, and those people will be held accountable.
Elon Musk and DOGE are bringing much-needed accountability to our out-of-control bureaucracy as they take a chainsaw to rampant waste, fraud, and abuse.
