Janja Lula da Silva swore at Elon Musk while advocating for social media regulation, prompting a response from the billionaire.
- During a G20 social event, Brazil's First Lady Janja Lula da Silva called out Elon Musk, emphasizing the need to regulate social media to combat misinformation.
- Her remarks came after a ship's horn sounded, which she jokingly attributed to Musk, before stating she was not afraid of him.
- Musk responded on his platform X with a laughing emoji and predicted that President Lula's Workers' Party would lose the next election.
