A Tesla owner angrily confronted a man allegedly caught carving a swastika into her car, an incident captured on video that highlights escalating tensions over Elon Musk’s controversial public image.

The confrontation unfolded Sunday in a Philadelphia parking lot when the owner spotted the suspect damaging her white Tesla sedan. “So why would you write a swastika on a Tesla?” she demanded, as seen in footage posted to X. The man, identified by police as Chadd Ritenbaugh, 36, from Yardley, Pennsylvania, responded, “Obviously I have something against Elon Musk,” before trailing off. Ritenbaugh faces charges of criminal mischief, harassment, and disorderly conduct, according to Central Bucks Regional Police.

The vandalism comes amid a wave of attacks on Tesla vehicles and facilities, fueled by backlash to Musk’s role in President Donald Trump’s administration and his leadership of the Department of Government Efficiency. Musk condemned the act on X, calling it “a hate crime.” The Tesla owner, who remained unnamed, challenged Ritenbaugh’s logic, asking, “So Elon Musk owns that car?” as she pointed to her damaged vehicle.

Authorities reported the incident occurred around 8 p.m. on March 30, following a string of similar acts nationwide. Last week, Tesla showrooms faced protests dubbed “Tesla Takedown,” reflecting growing dissent. Ritenbaugh’s arrest marks the latest flashpoint in the clash between Musk’s supporters and detractors.

Megyn Kelly DETONATES on “rage machine” Lib for joking about her dead sister

Megyn Kelly unleashed a blistering critique of liberal tech journalist Kara Swisher on Monday, calling her a “bad person” for her response to the death of Kelly’s sister, Suzanne Crossley, in 2022. The fiery exchange erupted after Swisher labeled Kelly a “rage machine” on her podcast “Pivot with Kara Swisher and Scott Galloway,” reigniting a feud between the former friends.

Kelly, host of SiriusXM’s “The Megyn Kelly Show,” recounted how Swisher reacted coldly when Kelly canceled an interview scheduled days after Crossley’s sudden heart attack at age 58. “I’m sorry, but she’s a bad person! Did she ever send me a note? Did she ever say, ‘I’m so sorry about your sister’?” Kelly said, her voice thick with emotion. She accused Swisher of lacking empathy, contrasting it with her own tearful on-air announcement of the loss.

The clash stems from a soured friendship that deteriorated after Kelly began discussing COVID-19 views that Swisher opposed. Kelly claimed Swisher “joked” about her sister’s death, a charge that fueled her outrage. “See how nasty you are,” Kelly fumed, addressing Swisher’s recent jab at her media career.

Swisher has not publicly responded to the latest salvo. The confrontation underscores Kelly’s shift from mainstream journalism to a polarizing conservative voice, amplifying personal grievances on her platform. For Kelly, the wound of her sister’s death remains raw, now a weapon in her war of words with Swisher.

Conservative news channel SOARS 700% on first day of trading! 100% on the second!

Shares of conservative cable channel Newsmax soared more than 100% in early trading Tuesday, building on a jaw-dropping 700% spike during its public debut Monday on the New York Stock Exchange.

The stock, trading under the ticker "NMAX," closed at $83.51 per share Monday after opening at $14, following an initial public offering priced at $10 per share. Tuesday’s surge continues a remarkable rise for the right-wing outlet, which has gained traction during President Donald Trump’s second term. Newsmax raised $75 million in its IPO, selling 7.5 million Class B common shares.

“We hate the bundle. The bundle is terrible for the cable industry. It’s terrible for consumers,” Newsmax CEO Christopher Ruddy told CNBC’s "Squawk Box" on Monday, highlighting the company’s shift to secure fees from pay TV distributors alongside advertising revenue. Ruddy, who transformed Newsmax from a digital outlet to a cable channel, aims to challenge Fox News’ dominance in conservative media.

Despite its growth—ranking as the fourth most-watched cable news channel with 309,000 primetime viewers between Dec. 30 and March 20, per Nielsen—Newsmax trails Fox News’ 3.1 million primetime audience. The cable industry faces headwinds as consumers ditch bundles for streaming, yet Newsmax’s stock run defies the trend, fueled by retail investor enthusiasm. Tuesday’s rally underscores its appeal amid a shifting media landscape.

Biden and the US were “PART OF THE KILL CHAIN“ in Ukraine, new report reveals!

 A New York Times investigation revealed Monday that the Biden administration was deeply involved in aiding Ukraine against Russia, far beyond what was publicly acknowledged, including providing targeting data and deploying advisers near the frontlines.

The U.S. played a critical role in Ukraine’s military efforts, contributing to over 700,000 Russian casualties, according to the report. American officials shared intelligence labeled as “points of interest” to maintain plausible deniability, with one official noting, “If you ever get asked the question, ‘Did you pass a target to the Ukrainians?’ you can legitimately not be lying when you say, ‘No, I did not.’” The administration also exercised tight control over Ukraine’s use of HIMARS missile systems, retaining the ability to disable them remotely.

Advisers, initially dubbed “subject matter experts,” operated close to combat zones, with their numbers tripling after a Ukrainian leadership shift. Despite this cooperation, tensions arose, with Kyiv viewing U.S. oversight as overbearing. A European intelligence official expressed shock at the extent of involvement, telling the Times that American officials had become “part of the kill chain.”

The Biden administration sought to balance support with diplomatic caution, restricting data on Russian military figures to avoid escalating NATO-Russia tensions. “Imagine how that would be for us if we knew that the Russians helped some other country assassinate our chairman,” a senior U.S. official said.
