Elon Musk Says He No Longer Goes Out in Public After Charlie Kirk Killing

He told Katie Miller’s podcast that Kirk’s assassination underscored what he calls “hardcore” security risks.

Overview

  • Musk said on The Katie Miller Podcast that he avoids public places because of what he described as serious security concerns.
  • He characterized the new reality as “life is on hardcore mode,” adding, “You make one mistake and you’re dead.”
  • Musk said even routine errands are off-limits, citing immediate selfie lines and the heightened risk he perceives since the shooting.
  • Charlie Kirk, 31, was fatally shot while speaking at a Utah campus; 22-year-old Tyler Robinson is charged with first-degree/aggravated murder and could face the death penalty if convicted.
