Elon Musk has claimed he wants to file a lawsuit against a former top Democrat, Jamaal Bowman, after the ex-New York lawmaker unleased a barrage of insults on the Tesla CEO.
Bowman, 48, accused the SpaceX CEO of both being an incompetent thief and a Nazi during a fiery CNN broadcast on Thursday night.
The verbal barrage began after Joe Borelli, the ex-Republican leader on the New York City Council, argued that much of the discontent seen at Republican town hall events were protests organized by Democrats.
Thats not true. And this shows, again, the American people do not trust Elon Musk. And Elon Musk is incompetent in his position, the liberal politician, who now runs the super PAC Built to Win, said during the evening broadcast.
Bowman went on to list the reasons why he believes the Tesla founder doesnt have the necessary skills required to hold Musks top-ranking position.
And how do we know? Because they fired tens of thousands of people, it was challenged in court, Bowman began.
The court said the people have to go back, and now the people are coming back. Hes incompetent, hes a thief, hes a Nazi, and people dont trust him, period.
Musk, never one to back down from a challenge, swiftly responded to Bowmans scathing claims by announcing his alleged plans to take legal action against the former House representative.
Ive had enough. Lawsuit inbound, Musk wrote on X, formerly Twitter, in response to the heated national broadcast.

However, after Bowman made the searing allegations, Rep. Mike Lawler, who was also present during the broadcast, seemingly ignored the New York Democrats inflammatory accusation.
Lawler went on to note that he had recently had an event protested by an organized progressive group.
Chuck Schumer went on the airwaves, multiple times now, including today, and said, we are organizing to send protesters up to Republican districts here in New York, including mine, Lawler said.
And they have been working, the Democratic Party, along with activist organization, including Indivisible, to organize and mobilize voters, both within the district and outside, he argued.
That is democracy, and thats fine, but lets not act like organizing Democrat activists is somehow news.
CNN host Abby Phillip then tried to end the show by praising the Republican lawmaker for continuing to hold town hall events with constituents, prompting Bowman to insist that he has not.
Phillip then cut Bowman off, appearing to distance herself, and her employer, from his provocative comments.
Former Congressman Bowman, I just have to say, just a second, I just have to say, your opinion about Elon Musk is your opinion about Elon Musk, she said.

The unhinged insults come just weeks after the first buddy was accused of doing a Nazi salute at the presidential inaugural parade in January.
While on stage during one of the inauguration events celebrating Donald Trump as the 47th president, Musk thumped his right hand over his heart, fingers spread wide, and extended his right arm out at an upward angle.
He then turned around and repeated the gesture.
He quickly came under fire for the now-viral moment, with many speculating that he gave an overt gesture to Adolf Hitler and the Nazis.
Musk hit back at those claiming that he made that gesture, accusing his critics of needing better dirty tricks.
The founder of X also said that the "everyone is Hitler" attack is sooo tired.
The Anti-Defamation League (ADL), an organization founded to combat anti-Semitism and has criticized Musk in the past, also rushed to his defense, saying it appears that made an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm, not a Nazi salute.
The ADL also noted that Trumps inauguration was a delicate moment and that politics are inflamed but urged all sides to offer each other bit of grace and perhaps even the benefit of the doubt.

The unhinged barrage of insults come as President Donald Trumps first buddy announced sweeping cuts to federally funded programs like the Department of Education
Musks gesture comes after he made several statements in recent weeks in support of Germanys far-right AFD party.
This was no ordinary victory. This was a fork in the road of human civilization, he said as he made the salute.
This one really mattered. Thank you for making it happen! Thank you.
Historian Aaron Astor also rebuffed accusations of Musks Nazi emulation.
I have criticized Elon Musk many times for letting neo-Nazis pollute this platform, he wrote on X, adding: But this gesture is not a Nazi salute.
This is a socially awkward autistic mans wave to the crowd where he says my heart goes out to you.
Musk announced in 2021 he had been diagnosed with Aspergers syndrome, a form of autism.
Bowman did not immediately respond to
