On Tuesday, September 30, 2025, Elon Musk responded to the US President Donald Trump’s post on X, where the politician called out ADL for listing his late ally’s organisation, Turning Point USA, in its extremism and hate glossary.

Responding to Donald Trump’s tweet, the X-owner shared a one-word reaction and wrote:

“Utterly.”

Meanwhile, the 79-year-old American politician also made a one-word remark of “disgraceful” while resharing a post from the X account, Libs of TikTok. Notably, the X account shared a screenshot which seemingly depicted the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) as having listed TPUSA as an extremist hate group under its “Glossary of Extremism and Hate” section.

According to The Guardian, on Sunday, September 28, Elon Musk accused the ADL, which is one of the most well-known Jewish organisations in the US, of being a “hate group” against Christians.

Responding to a post from an X account, which claimed that the ADL considers “Christianity a hateful” extremist belief, Elon Musk wrote:

“The ADL hates Christians, therefore it is is a hate group.”

Meanwhile, in an article published on Monday, The Guardian noted that the Anti-Defamation League’s page on Charlie Kirk’s organisation states:

“TPUSA’s leadership and activists have made multiple racist or bigoted comments and have been linked to a variety of extremists.”

On September 21, 2025, Elon Musk and Donald Trump reportedly sat beside each other in the stands of a stadium in Glendale, Arizona. The two joined tens of thousands of people who had gathered to pay tribute to Charlie Kirk, who was shot dead on Wednesday, September 10, on the grounds of Utah Valley University.

As per The Guardian, Donald Trump shook hands and chatted with the 54-year-old businessman at Kirk’s memorial service. Meanwhile, the Tesla CEO once led the US President’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and donated over $270 million to Donald Trump’s presidential campaign.

For the unversed, Turning Point USA is now overseen by Erika Kirk, the widow of Charlie Kirk. According to CNN, the college tour of TPUSA is set to return to Utah for its first event on Tuesday, after Kirk was assassinated on a college campus in Utah earlier this month.

Notably, Kirk’s suspected killer fired a single shot through the crowd. The gunshot reportedly hit his neck while the activist was addressing a huge crowd. The shooter was identified as 22-year-old Tyler Roninson.
