Video has emerged of a woman not only admitting she hasn't paid taxes in eight years, but also openly calling for the assassination of Elon Musk, President Donald Trump's head of DOGE, the Department of Governmental Efficiency.
The profanity-filled message, originally posted by LibsofTikTok, shows the woman making a beheading gesture, saying: "Elon Musk, we need to X him. And by X, I mean formerly known as assassination."
At one point the woman taunts federal law enforcement, stating: "You don't have enough people to investigate me at this point. I haven't filed my taxes in like eight years. And yet, no one's come for me.
"So I'm gonna f***ing say it. Let's assassinate some mother******s."
Elon Musk became aware of the video, and posted: "Death threat and admission of multiple counts of tax fraud @EagleEdMartin."
Musk's tag to Ed Martin sent the clip to U.S. Attorney Ed Martin in the District of Columbia, who reposted the clip along with the message: "Duly noted. Thx for letting us know. We'll put you in the system. Talk soon, M'am. #NoOneIsAboveTheLaw."
Some online reaction includes:
"Why openly admit to a crime while committing one at the same time?"
"Are you guys actually gonna arrest these people though? … Can we pick up the pace here?"
"She is so stupid she thinks if she simply gestures &whispers that she can get away with calling for m@rder? 8 years no filed taxes? You got a Big surprise headed your way! Not to mention all of the accrued interest you will have to pay since you readily acknowledge no compliance. Good luck in jail."
"Make Insane Asylums Great Again."
Billionaire Elon Musk reacted with surprise on X to leaked texts by Ashley St. Clair that said she was trying to seduce him so she could benefit from having his child.
Musk, who owns X, commented "Woah!" and "Yikes!" in response to posts from people who know St. Clair and shared messages she sent to them before becoming pregnant with what she claims is Musk's child.
He has not denied that the child is his, but has not acknowledged it either.
St. Clair filed lawsuits against Musk to establish paternity and asking for full custody of her son.
Influencer Isabella Moody said on X, “I wasn’t going to post these, but now that @stclairashley has leaked her private signal messages with @elonmusk after lying and saying she ‘wanted privacy’, here’s more evidence Ashely [sic] planned to baby trap Elon," and tagged Musk in the post.
“She doesn’t care about ‘privacy.’ She planned to seduce him by her own admission and now she’s leaking his texts,” Moody continued.
“Elon followed me. I need his rocket babies,” St. Clair allegedly wrote to Moody.
“Look ill take one for the team, seduce elon, and get in a rocket to see what’s up,” Moody also said she wrote in 2023.
St. Clair released some text messages allegedly between her and Musk after filing the lawsuit, ostensibly to further her case.
"I want to knock you up again," one text by Musk allegedly read.
When St. Clair asked to meet in person about their child, Musk allegedly responded, “Hmm ok,” adding, “Well, I do have a legion of kids to make.”
The lawsuit filing also included a photo of Musk holding the infant, which would be his 13th child if paternity is established.
The 53-year-old SpaceX founder has had several long-term relationships, but has also fathered children with an executive of one of his companies and others.
He believes in "extreme breeding" to combat population collapse and has offered his sperm to some of his acquaintances in an effort to have many children.

In the midst of Black History Month, MSNBC is canceling its prime-time political show hosted by black anchorwoman Joy Reid, news to which some conservatives are cheering.
The unabashedly left-leaning network axed "The ReidOut" as part of a major shakeup by the cable broadcaster. Reid has been at MSNBC since 2016, and anchored the 7 p.m. slot since 2020.
"Joy Reid, aka the race lady at MSNBC, just had her show cancelled because it was unwatchable," said Charlie Kirk of Turning Point USA.
"Good riddance to the most vitriolic, lowbrow, and unhinged race hustler ever allowed on national television."
Best-selling author Matt Walsh said: "Deeply saddened by the passing of Joy Reid's MSNBC show. It was a great resource for right wing podcasters looking for a clip to play and make fun of. I can't tell you how many slow news days Joy helped me through. I hope she finds somewhere else to spout her inane bullsh**.
"Joy Reid was one of the most toxic people in the media," said Charles Gasparino, a Fox Business senior correspondent and author of "Go Woke Go Broke; The Inside Story of the Radicalization of Corporate America." "Good riddance."
U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., noted: "The ad execs and the board finally figured out that racism, lies, and Trump derangement syndrome will put them out of business."
Ajit Pai, the former chairman of the Federal Communication Commission, or FCC, clowned: "An unfortunate development for Joy Reid's viewer, considering the host's insightful analysis on political topics."
Pay attached a video clip of Reid praising the "flawlessly run campaign" of former Vice President Kamala Harris, despite her crushing loss to President Donald Trump.
Some on the political left are defending Reid.
Keith Olbermann, a former MSNBC host, said: "MSNBC shake-up: the issue is, they didn't have a Joy Reid problem. They have a Joe Scarborough problem. Until he is fired, MSNBC will not recover. Shuffling tepid shows in and out does nothing."
Wajahat Ali, a left-leaning pundit, explained Joy Reid "is one of the few MSNBC hosts who invited me and let me say what had to be said.
"She doesn't mince words about the threat of Trump. She speaks up for Palestinians killed in Gaza. She's a blunt black woman, so of course her show is cancelled. Not lost on any of us."

U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is "hopeful" Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy will sign a rare earth minerals deal with President Donald Trump this week, adding that "the Russians hate this deal."
Appearing on "Sunday Morning Futures" with Maria Bartiromo on the Fox News Channel, Bessent said: "Common to a lot of misperceptions, the Russians hate this deal."
"The morning that I arrived in Ukraine to get into Kyiv … you fly to Poland, you take a 10- hour night if train in. The Russians, unfortunately, bombed Kyiv. There was a missile barrage four hours before I got there.
"It was the first time that such a barrage had a taken place since November. So I think that was a strong signal from Russian leadership that they don't like this deal because it gives President Trump more negotiating leverage.
"So if the Russians don't like it, my view is Ukrainians should."
"President Trump created this idea himself. It is a win-win," Bessent continued.
"We make money if the Ukrainian people make money, and I believe that with the United States of America, our know-how, our businesses willing to to come in and provide capital, that we can accelerate the Ukrainian growth trajectory and take in substantial monies for the U.S. taxpayers and get the Ukrainian economy on a growth, great growth trajectory."
While Bessent expects Zelenskyy will sign the deal, he added, "What it does not include is a military guarantee."
"What it does include is an implicit guarantee that if the if United States of America is heavily invested in the economic future, I call it an economic security guarantee. The more assets that U.S. companies have on the ground, the bigger interest that the U.S. has in the future of Ukrainian economy doing well, the more security it creates for the Ukrainian people and the higher the return for the U.S. taxpayer.
"Again, President Trump has structured this win-win deal, and it's unfortunate that, you know, after by meeting with President Zelenskyy and then his meeting in Munich with Vice President Vance, Secretary of State Rubio, the idea here of my trip to Ukraine and then the meeting in Munich, we want to intertwine the U.S. and Ukrainian economies for the benefit of both.
"And, unfortunately, President Zelenskyy seems to have put a bit of daylight between us, but I am sure in the long run, or in the short run there is no daylight, the deal will be signed, and this will give President Trump a lever. And it will be a strong signal to Russian leadership that the U.S. is in a serious partnership with the Ukrainian people."
Bessent also praised Trump's cost-cutting measures by Elon Musk and DOGE, the Department of Government Efficiency, hammering what he called "orgiastic government spending" by Joe Biden's administration.
"I think that if we have a bloated government, and if that gets cut down, then government spending will go down," he explained. "Many times … in the past ten months I've talked about reprivatizing the economy, and that's what we're going to have to do.
"We've seen what I would call this orgiastic government spending with the past administration. We're running 6.7%, 6.9% deficits to GDP which we've never had when we're not in a recession, not in a war. And we're going to bring that down. So as the government employment comes down, private sector will not be crowded out anymore.
For over a week, the political and tech worlds have been abuzz amid the allegation that DOGE leader Elon Musk fathered a 13th child last year with a conservative influencer.
Now, as the situation has escalated into a legal battle for custody and establishment of Musk's paternity, details of the Telsa and X billionaire's concerns about threats on his life have emerged via text messages he seemingly believed would not see the light of day, as the Daily Mail explains.
It was on Valentine's Day that Ashley St. Clair, a self-styled MAGA-affiliated influencer, took to social media to announce that Musk had fathered her son, who she says was born in September 2024.
“Five months ago, I welcomed a new baby into the world. Elon Musk is the father,” St. Clair wrote.
She continued, “I have not previously disclosed this to protect our child's privavy and safety, but in recent days it has become clear that tabloid media intends to do so, regardless of the harm it will cause. I intend to allow our child to grow in a normal and safe environment. For that reason, I ask that the media honor our child's privacy, and refrain from invasive reporting.”
St. Clair's dealings with Musk appeared to deteriorate further after her public declaration, as she later wrote in a now-deleted X post that she and her representatives had been “trying to communicate for the past several days” in order to complete a parenting agreement, only to be met with silence from the world-renowned entrepreneur.
That message came in response to an X post from Musk reacting to an account that shared a purported screenshot in which St. Clair joked about hoping to lure him into a relationship, with the DOGE chief writing, simply, “Whoa.”
The saga took yet another intriguing turn on Friday, when St. Clair filed a court petition to have Musk legally recognized as the baby's father and to obtain full custody of the child, as Fox News noted.
St. Clair's attorneys appended a series of exhibits to the petition, including a photo of Musk holding the baby as well as a series of screenshotted messages their client exchanged with the alleged father of her child.
Among the dialogues posted was one in which Musk described the security concerns with which he deals on a daily basis, something he said prompted the need for St. Clair's absolute discretion when it came to the baby.
“I get credible death threats every day. I'm #2 after Trump for assassination. Wake up. This is not the time for sentiment at the expense of safety. If I make a mistake on security, [the baby] will never know his father,” Musk wrote.
St. Clair responded that those worries were the reason the child's birth certificate did not list the father's name and why the baby's last name was not recorded as Musk, comments that prompted Musk to reply, “Necessary for now. Only the paranoid survive.”
St. Clair told the court in her petition that Musk has not seen his new son since a 30-minute visit in November, has never sought additional contact, and has never requested photos or updates on his progress, facts she says justify her quest for sole custody.
With accusations now swirling from fellow conservative influencer Isabella Moody and journalist Laura Loomer that St. Clair had embarked on a clandestine, years'-long campaign to seduce Musk, the battle between the young child's parents seems poised to yield all sorts of unsavory details that reflect poorly on just about everyone involved.
President Donald Trump is planning on unleashing "holy hell" on Mexican drug cartels following the decision to label the cartels as "foreign terrorist organizations."
Trump has long promised to drop the hammer on the cartels in Mexico that have been responsible for smuggling in deadly drugs, engaging in human trafficking, and committing acts of violence on the southern border.
Trump's plans to go to war with the cartels are an extension of Trump's effort to secure the southern border which has become lawless thanks to cartels which were emboldened by the previous administration.
The White House's statements on the cartel paired with the terrorist organization designation have raised speculation that the Trump administration is going to use military force in northern Mexico.
National security adviser Mike Waltz spoke at the Conservative Political Action Conference saying, "We are going to unleash Holy hell on the cartels. Enough is enough. We are securing our border, and the cartels are on notice."
The Trump administration is poised to flex America's military might in crushing the cartels, and to a lesser extent, Mexico.
Mexican president Claudia Sheinbaum has been resisting Trump's calls for a crackdown leading some to suspect that Sheinbaum is a cartel asset considering the political violence and assassinations of her political opponents.
Considering the cartels run large portions of Mexico and utilize extreme violence, many suspect that Sheinbaum only rules in exchange for favors to Mexico's many brutal drug cartels.
These suspicions have only grown stronger since Sheinbaum loudly condemned the labeling of cartels as terrorist organizations and began to loudly chirp about Mexico's sovereignty.
The Trump administration appears to not care about Sheinbaum's bleating as Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has been clear that use of military force, even in Mexican territory is on the table.
Sheinbaum doesn't want Mexico's sovereignty violated but is harboring and aiding terrorist organizations that commit violence against Americans and traffic deadly substances into the United States.
Trump's executive order designating the cartels as terrorist organizations explicitly states that these criminal organizations are a threat to U.S. national security, foreign policy and economic interests.
The Pentagon has already begun to conduct intelligence operations against the cartels as U.S. drones were seen flying over northwestern Mexico.
It remains to be seen how Trump will handle President Sheinbaum and the Mexican government but ultimately Mexico has no recourse against the United States either militarily or economically.
Sheinbaum will verbally protest Trump's military intervention but ultimately has no power to stop the United States from coming in and stomping the cartels into oblivion.
President Donald Trump is known for his ruthless approach to firing people who are no longer of use to him or refuse to play ball.
That was evidenced again recently as the president announced that he had fired the Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman on Friday, the Associated Press reported.
The report added that Air Force Gen. CQ Brown Jr. was let go by the commander-in-chief alongside two additional high-ranking military officers.
Brown's ouster reportedly sent "shockwaves" through the Pentagon. He had held the title of Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman for 16 months prior to getting the boot.
Brown's removal came as Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth continues to march forward in his quest to root out the DEI side of the Pentagon and get back to the roots of what the military should be focused on -- which is winning wars.
Trump released a statement regarding Brown's ouster, thanking him for his service and wishing him well.
"I want to thank General Charles ‘CQ’ Brown for his over 40 years of service to our country, including as our current Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. He is a fine gentleman and an outstanding leader, and I wish a great future for him and his family," Trump wrote in a Truth Social post.
He was fired because the General CQ Brown went AWOL when military readiness was sacrificed for LGBTQ special privileges, a botched withdrawal in Afghan costing 13 American hero’s their lives, and he was silence when amongst the best military men and women were booted out because… https://t.co/Tr8uzzyt5U pic.twitter.com/CdWafG37DK

The Associated Press noted:
Brown’s public support of Black Lives Matter after the police killing of George Floyd had made him fodder for the administration’s wars against “wokeism” in the military. His ouster is the latest upheaval at the Pentagon, which plans to cut 5,400 civilian probationary workers starting next week and identify $50 billion in programs that could be cut next year to redirect those savings to fund Trump’s priorities.
To fill the now-vacant role, the president nominated Air Force Lt. Gen. Dan “Razin” Caine to take Brown's place.
Social media users reacted to the mainstream media and Democrats suggesting that Brown was fired because of his skin color. Many pointed out that they felt Brown's actions were actually racism.
"General CQ Brown wanted a reduction in white officers. How was this acceptable!?!" one X user wrote.
Another X user wrote, "America is done with racism in any form."
It'll be refreshing to see a new chairman who is also focused on training troops to be ready to win wars.

A hospital is being informed that requiring ultrasound technicians to take part in the facility's abortion business violates their rights.
It is the American Center for Law and Justice that has dispatched a letter to Presbyterian Hospital in Albuquerque, N.M.
The business, which no longer has a religious affiliation, a few months ago changed its policy to demand that ultrasound techs help in abortions – a reversal of the previous practice.
"This shift has put employees in the impossible position of choosing between their livelihoods or their religious convictions," explained the legal experts at ACLJ.
The hospital is demanding in its new policy that techs participate, and exemptions are not assured.
"If an employee is unwilling to participate and an accommodation cannot be ensured, they risk job reassignment or termination. Moreover, even if an alternative position is available, the employee must endure a four-week unpaid leave until a transfer is finalized," the ACLJ explained.
When the techs submitted a conflict of conscience form, there wasn't an answer.
So the ACLJ dispatched a formal demand letter to Presbyterian Hospital explaining what the hospital is required to do under federal law, including Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Church Amendment.
Those "explicitly protect healthcare workers from being compelled to participate in procedures that violate their religious beliefs," the ACLJ said.
The organization said, "We have demanded that Presbyterian Hospital provide written assurances confirming that our clients will be fully exempt from assisting in any abortion-related procedures without penalty or adverse action. Should the hospital fail to comply, we are prepared to take all necessary legal and administrative actions to defend the conscience rights of these dedicated medical professionals."
The ACLJ explained the law is clear: "Employers must provide reasonable accommodations for sincerely held religious beliefs unless doing so imposes an undue hardship – a standard that the U.S. Supreme Court has reinforced in recent rulings."

There's no doubt that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. had in mind a thorough rebuild of the American healthcare system for his tenure as Secretary of Health and Human Services.
He's long objected to some parts of America's vaccination regime and has been a harsh critic of the fact there are so many chronic diseases in children.
He just started on his agenda, with two orders.
The Daily Mail reports he has pulled a campaign that was intended to promote flu shots to Americans, and he has postponed a meeting of a team of vaccine advisers.
The first order concerned the CDC's "Wild to Mild" flu shot promotions, the report said. They "juxtaposed" a lion next to a kitten in a claim that the shot "tamed" the virus.
Kennedy's goal, however, is to move the CDC away from such pushy tactics so that its communications focus on "Informed consent," literally that patients are told the medical risks and benefits and are allowed to come to their own decisions.
The report claims that the primary side effect of most shots is the pain from the injection.
And doctors have expressed concern that not launching a persuasion campaign will result in fewer people getting the shots.
Kennedy long has been a critic of some parts of America's shot agenda, including his concern that they need more testing before being used widely.
"During his Senate confirmation saga, RFK was pressed on the issue of vaccines by Louisiana Republican Bill Cassidy, a physician and staunch advocate of vaccinations," the report said. "Sen. Cassidy was particularly alarmed at Mr. Kennedy's repetition over the years of controversial claims that vaccines are linked to rising rates of autism."
In fact, the number of autism cases diagnoses has exploded exponentially in recent years.
Kennedy explained he wouldn't change the existing shot schedule and would provide Congress with notice of changes to guidelines.
Kennedy in the past has suggested reevaluating recommended vaccinations, shifting research priorities, and removing legal protections for vaccine makers. He's also lobbied for changes in drug advertising practices.
He has suggested "subjecting vaccines to the same rigorous approval process as other drugs, mandating automated adverse event reporting, eliminating conflicts of interest in federal vaccine approvals, and reevaluating all vaccines recommended before evidence-based guidelines were established," the report said.
The issue of vaccinations is a flashpoint right now because of the experimental COVID-19 mRNA shots forced on millions of Americans by government or employer mandate, and the fact that the evidence now shows they largely didn't accomplish their goal of preventing infection. Further, side effects have been documented up to and including death.

You might call it the "Make Germany Great Again" movement, as the European nation heads into elections tomorrow and the populist Alternative for Germany Party seeks a mandate to govern.
Its candidate for chancellor is Alice Weidel, a Chinese-speaking economist who is raising two sons with her Sri Lankan-born woman partner.
In a recent speech, Weidel sounded like a female Donald Trump, promising an ambitious Germany First agenda.
"Close the borders completely," she said, according to the English translation of a clip posted on X, "and reject every illegal entrant and every person without papers."
She said her party would send a message to the world: "The German borders are closed!"
According to a Reuters report, in a policy dubbed the "firewall," other German parties have a consensus not to team up with the AfD to form a coalition government after the election – an agreement U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance decried when he met Weidel while in Europe this week.
