In response to a post on X in which Elon Musk tried to recast blame for history’s worst genocides away from Hitler, Stalin, and Mao and onto public-sector workers, American Federation of Government Employees National President Everett Kelley issued the following statement:
“The implication that the American citizens working at your local VA hospital or Social Security office are worse than Hitler, Stalin, or Mao—history's most despicable masterminds of genocide and mass murderer—is totally disconnected from reality. That's obvious to every American.
“That this baseless accusation comes from the single most influential person in our government should alarm every citizen.
“His intent doesn’t matter. His actions, disregard for the truth, and utter contempt for the patriotic Americans serving their country—a third of whom are veterans of the armed forces—does matter. It has no place in American government.
“It's time for President Trump to step up, end the chaos that's harming the country and his own administration, and tell Elon Musk ‘You’re fired.’”
