FBI Intensifies Investigation into Tesla Attacks Labeled as Domestic Terrorism

Over 80 incidents of vandalism, arson, and violence against Tesla properties are under federal investigation, as protests against Elon Musk's political role continue worldwide.

Law enforcement agencies, including the FBI and DHS, are investigating over 80 attacks on Tesla properties, officially designating violent incidents as domestic terrorism.
Recent attacks include arson at a Tesla facility in Rome and incendiary devices found at a showroom in Austin, Texas, highlighting the ongoing security threats.
Intelligence reports warn that violent opportunists may exploit peaceful protests, urging caution in distinguishing legitimate dissent from criminal acts.
Protests targeting Tesla and Elon Musk, including a 'Global Day of Action' at over 500 locations, have been linked to organized efforts by advocacy groups, though most actions have remained non-violent.
Elon Musk and the Trump administration have emphasized the violent aspects of the protests, while critics accuse authorities of conflating peaceful demonstrations with terrorism.
