Elon Musk, billionaire entrepreneur and owner of X (formerly Twitter), has ignited outrage after calling for German Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s resignati.

Chancellor Olaf Scholz took a swipe at Elon Musk over his political judgment, escalating a spat between the German government and the world’s richest person.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz on Friday said freedom of opinion "also applies to multi-billionaires," after Elon Musk said that only the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) can 'save' the country.

Elon Musk, poised to advise US President-elect Donald Trump, criticised German Chancellor Olaf Scholz following a deadly car attack in Magdeburg. Musk also endorsed Germany's far-right AfD, intensifying political tensions ahead of the February 23 election.

Elon Musk, billionaire entrepreneur and incoming adviser to President-elect Trump, publicly called for German Chancellor Olaf Scholz to resign. Musk's comments followed reports of an incident at a German Christmas market.

The far-right Alternative for Germany party is classified by German intelligence as a suspected extremist organization.

Elon Musk appears to be leaning even further into a full neo-Nazi embrace. Following his social media assault to block a congressional spending bill meant to avoid a government shutdown, the tech billionaire took to X and described the racist, far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party as Germany’s last, best hope.

Elon Musk, the billionaire whose support for Donald Trump has given him the president-elect's ear, is throwing his support behind Alternative for Germany (AfD), a far-right party that critics describe as xenophobic, extremist and perhaps even a successor to the Nazi Party.

Only the AfD can save Germany,” Elon Musk wrote, referencing the far-right anti-immigrant and anti-Islam party in Europe’s largest country.
