The tech billionaire and close Trump ally has sent shockwaves through German politics by publicly endorsing the far-right Alternative to Germany party weeks before snap federal elections.

Elon Musk, the tech billionaire behind Tesla and SpaceX, has made waves in Washington D.C. after assuming control over vast swaths of the U.S. government. Since President Donald Trump’s inauguration, Musk has upended the federal bureaucracy, with critics accusing him of orchestrating a “plutocratic coup.” His unprecedented actions include halting major federal programs, gaining access to sensitive information, and even controlling the U.S. payment system. Musk’s growing influence has sparked concerns of a constitutional crisis, with many questioning the implications for democracy and government accountability. Is this just another eccentric move from the world's richest man, or is there a more dangerous agenda at play?

The European Union has strongly responded to President Donald Trump’s warning about tariffs, vowing to retaliate if the US imposes new trade barriers. Trump’s administration is set to target the EU with tariffs, building on previous moves against Canada, Mexico, and China. In a sharp response, EU leaders, including French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, emphasized that Europe would not back down, warning that a trade war would harm both sides. While Trump has argued for fairer trade contributions from European nations, the EU insists that any new tariffs will disrupt both economies. With escalating tensions, the EU has made it clear that it will act in defense of its interests, signaling a potential showdown in global trade relations.

Russian missiles rained down on Odesa’s historic center, striking a UNESCO World Heritage Site and leaving devastation in their wake. Among those caught in the deadly attack were Norwegian diplomats, who found themselves in the "epicenter of the strike," according to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. The powerful explosions shattered the iconic Hotel Bristol, severely damaging the Odesa Philharmonic concert hall and nearby museums. Seven people were injured, and emergency crews remain at the scene. As Ukraine pleads for stronger air defenses, the attack has intensified global outrage over Russia’s continued assaults on civilian infrastructure.

Up 150 experts were expected to monitor the talk live-streamed on X on Thursday evening for potential violations of Germany’s election laws, according to Politico.
Musk earlier ruffled some feathers in Berlin by praising AfD’s policies, including its tough stance on immigration. During his talk with Weidel, he reaffirmed his belief that “only AfD can save Germany” ahead of the 2025 parliamentary election.
