CEO of Tesla Elon Musk took to Twitter to thrash NBC and ask the question that has never been answered when it comes to the sinful duo of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.
MSNBC host and political commentator Mehdi Hassan took a shot at Musk stating, “If that happens, we may look back on this past week as a pivotal moment, when a petulant and not-so-bright billionaire casually bought one of the world’s most influential messaging machines and just handed it to the far-right,” said Hasan.
Musk didn’t pull his punches with his reply as he tweeted, “NBC basically saying Republicans are Nazis. Same org that covered up Hunter Biden laptop story, had Harvey Weinstein story early & killed it & built Matt Lauer his rape office. Lovely people.”
The NBC connection to the Harvey Weinstein story referenced in Musk’s tweet was referring to the allegations made in Ronan Farrow’s 2019 Catch and Kill: Lies, Spies, and a Conspiracy to Protect Predators. Farrow claimed that NBC attempted to stop his investigation into the sexual assault allegations posed against former Hollywood big shot Harvey Weinstein.
Catch and Kill also made claims that NBC tried to cover up the Matt Lauer sexual assault story by attempting to organize non-disclosure agreements between Lauer and his alleged victims of sexual harassment.
President of NBC, Noah Oppenheim, has stated that Farrow’s claims in Catch and Kill that NBC attempted to cover up the Matt Lauer’s alleged sexual harassment was a “smear” and “false.”
Following Musk’s initial tweet about NBC a twitter user made a compelling statement tweeting “It says it all that we heard more about Will Smith slapping Chris Rock than we heard about Ghislaine Maxwell’s trial. It is also “interesting” that the account tracking the Ghislaine Maxwell’s trial got banned when it gained traction. Lovely people indeed…” Musk responded to the tweet stating, “Where is their ‘client’ list? Shouldn’t at least one of them go down!?”
Where is their “client” list? Shouldn’t at least one of them go down!?
