Scott Galloway's Unhinged Tirade Against Elon Musk Takes A Very Dark Turn...
Marketing professor and anti-MAGA podcaster Scott Galloway launched an unhinged attack on Elon Musk, branding the billionaire a "traitor to the West" before invoking the infamous Rosenberg espionage case, which ended with the execution of two Americans during the Cold War.
Galloway spewed the incendiary comments during a discussion with former technology journalist Kara Swisher about Silicon Valley's growing influence, arguing that the United States' obsession with billionaire innovators has created a dangerous double standard.
However, what began as a familiar critique of Silicon Valley's billionaire class quickly took a darker turn. Galloway compared Musk to aviation pioneer Charles Lindbergh, whose sympathies toward Nazi Germany before America's entry into World War II remain a controversial chapter in U.S. history. Galloway then invoked Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, the American couple executed in 1953 after being convicted of conspiracy to commit espionage for the Soviet Union.
"We lined up the Rosenbergs against a wall," Galloway said, before insisting Musk should be held to the same standards as other traitors.
Galloway stopped short of explicitly calling for Musk's execution, but bringing up two spies who were put to death while calling him a traitor was a striking comparison.
Here are Galloway's remarks in full:
The Rosenbergs were convicted in 1951 of conspiring to commit espionage for the Soviet Union and executed at New York's Sing Sing prison two years later. Their case remains one of the most controversial espionage prosecutions in American history, particularly because of the severity of the punishment.
Galloway's remarks come amid an increasingly hostile climate surrounding Musk, with the billionaire facing criticism over his political activities and his role in the Trump administration.
A shadowy international group calling itself The Capytistas is preparing to expose the private homes of some of America's wealthiest individuals in a new campaign, according to a dossier viewed by WIRED.
The group's strategy is simple: Turn the private residences of the ultrawealthy into public information, potentially exposing properties their owners have gone to considerable lengths to keep out of the spotlight.
The Capytistas claims to have secured more than $1.2 million in financial backing and intends to publish over 150 residential addresses, many of which it says have never been publicly disclosed.
Elon Musk, his brother Kimbal, and members of Tesla's board of directors are among the group's initial targets. Its dossier reportedly contains 32 addresses associated with Musk and Tesla leadership.
Beginning in January 2025, Tesla dealerships, vehicles, and charging stations became targets of arson, firebombings, gunfire, and vandalism across the country.
In March 2025, then-Attorney General Pam Bondi announced federal charges against three suspects accused of attacking Tesla properties with Molotov cocktails, describing the violence as domestic terrorism.
