Terrorism on the Left | Power Line

On the American Left, the fascist impulse is never far below the surface. At the moment, the leftists’ number one target is Elon Musk. They are invading Tesla showrooms, vandalizing Teslas, selling bumper stickers denouncing Musk–ironically!–as a fascist, because he wants to shrink the size of government and reduce its power. You can’t make this stuff up.

BREAKING: HUNDREDS of New Yorkers have swarmed and shut down the Tesla dealer in Manhattan. Six have been arrested after occupying the showroom. Protests are erupting across America to reject Musk’s billionaire regime. This is how we beat fascism.

It is being reported that the attacks on Tesla dealerships are funded by ActBlue, a mainstream if corrupt arm of the Democratic Party. ActBlue is a criminal enterprise whose stock in trade is money laundering. If this report turns out to be correct, leaders of that organization (most of whom have just resigned, presumably coincidentally) should go to prison.

Leftists are explicitly calling for Musk to be assassinated:

I suppose Democrats in the House and Senate would disclaim responsibility for this incitement to assassination, but their hysterical, and wholly false, attacks on President Trump have already led to at least two assassination attempts on him. Musk’s life is at risk.

And so is his wealth. The Left’s attacks on Tesla have been effective. Tesla’s share price has declined by nearly half since Trump’s inauguration, wiping out many billions in value:

Liberals know exactly what they are doing. They want to make it as costly as possible to oppose government hegemony. If you stand in their way, they will harass you, threaten you, libel you, try to ruin you financially, and maybe try to kill you. These days, being a conservative is not for the faint of heart.
