Wave of violence intensifies against Tesla

Protests against Tesla and its founder Elon Musk have recently escalated into violent attacks in the United States and Europe. Over the past week, Tesla cars, charging stations and stores have been the targets of Molotov cocktails, shootings and vandalism.

The anti-democratic attacks and violence are likely due to Musk's political influence and the many positions he has recently expressed.

In Oregon, a 41-year-old man has now been arrested after throwing Molotov cocktails at a Tesla store and firing shots at the building. The incident occurred in connection with protests against Tesla, where the demonstrators on site protested against Musk's political involvement and corporate culture, Dagens PS reports.

At the same time, there are reports of several charging stations being vandalized with graffiti, including "Nazi" symbols and the word "Nazi" over the Tesla logo.

The attacks are not limited to the US. Similar attacks have taken place in parts of Europe.

Gothenburg particularly affected

In Sweden, Tesla cars have also been the target of arson attacks. In February, four Teslas in Gothenburg were attacked by fire in the space of two days. Police suspect that the perpetrators used flammable objects at the wheel arches to set fire to the cars.

A 35-year-old man has been arrested twice in connection with the fires but released on one occasion before new attacks occurred, Carup.se reports. The man is also suspected of another arson attack on a Tesla. Which makes the number of suspected arson fires to a total of five at present.

– He was arrested and questioned but then released by the prosecutor last night. Sometime a couple hours later, the next car caught fire. Then you find the same person near the area again so now he is caught, and he is arrested, says municipal police Ola Skogsberg to GP.

ActBlue involved in the attacks?

The protests target not only Tesla as a company but also Elon Musk personally. Critics accuse him of using his platform to influence American politics in a way that polarizes society. His growing influence has made him a target for activists and political opponents alike.

According to Musk, there are indications that some attacks are coordinated and sponsored by the organization ActBlue (Act Blue Charities Inc.), Fox News reports.

ActBlue is an American political campaign organization that collects party contributions from individuals in the grassroots movement, to be used, if necessary, by the Democratic Party in various election campaigns. ActBlue funders include notorious currency speculator and globalist George Soros.

Strong sales despite the attacks

The company has not yet officially commented on the recent attacks, but it says it is working with local authorities to investigate the incidents. Security measures at stores and charging stations have been tightened in several regions, particularly in the US.

Tesla's operations have also been affected by sabotage in the past, including an arson attack on a substation in January 2024 near its factory in Grünheide, Germany, which halted production for several weeks.

Despite the attacks, Tesla continues to report strong sales globally, especially of popular models like the Model Y. The company is also planning the launch of new models later this year.

Tommy Robinson acquitted of terrorism charges – thanks Elon Musk

British anti-Islam activist Tommy Robinson has been acquitted of charges under terrorism legislation after refusing to provide police with his phone's PIN code. The judge ruled that police had stopped him because of his political views. Robinson thanked billionaire Elon Musk, who paid for his legal defense.

Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, was stopped by police in July 2024 while driving through border control at the Channel Tunnel terminal in southeastern England.

Prosecutors told Westminster Magistrates' Court in London that police became suspicious due to Robinson's demeanor, the fact that he was driving a high-value vehicle – a friend's silver Bentley – and was traveling to Benidorm in southern Spain with a ticket purchased the same day.

Police seized Robinson's phone and demanded that he provide the code to unlock it. However, he refused, citing that he is a journalist and that the phone contained protected material.

On Tuesday, Judge Sam Goozee ruled that it appeared police had arrested Robinson because of his political views, making the decision to stop him unlawful.

Thanks Elon Musk

— First of all, thank you, Elon Musk ... why has it taken an American businessman to fight for our justice here and our fight against terrorism charges for journalists?, Robinson said outside the court, according to Reuters.

Billionaire Elon Musk has repeatedly shared Robinson's posts on the platform X and recently appeared via video link at a London rally organized by Robinson that drew approximately 150,000 people. Before the trial, Robinson stated that Musk had paid for his legal defense.

— I'm so glad that judge has given such a powerful judgment now that says it how it was - I was targeted because of my political beliefs.

Tommy Robinson was sentenced last year to 18 months in prison for contempt of court. In 2018, he spread claims on social media about what Robinson described as a violent Syrian migrant. He was convicted of libel in 2021 and prohibited from repeating the allegations. Despite this, he released a new film in 2023 that was viewed 47 million times – which in turn led to the sentence.

Germany sends Patriot systems – Ukraine wants more

The war in Ukraine

Published November 4, 2025 – By Editorial staff
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is preparing contracts for an additional 25 Patriot air defense systems. Each system costs approximately $1 billion.

Ukraine has received additional American-made Patriot air defense systems from Germany. President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed this on Sunday.

The increasingly questioned and pressured president publicly thanked German Chancellor and former BlackRock executive Friedrich Merz for the delivery of new American air defense systems. The previous agreement between the countries has now been implemented, the president announced on Sunday.

"Our agreements have been fulfilled. More Patriots are now in Ukraine and being put into operation", he stated.

Ukraine has long demanded more advanced weapons from its Western allies, including Tomahawk cruise missiles and additional Patriot batteries. According to New York Times reporting in May, the country owned eight Patriot systems, but only six of these were operational.

"More systems needed"

Zelensky was clear that he wants even more weapon deliveries going forward.

"Of course, more systems are needed to protect key infrastructure sites and our cities across the entire territory of Ukraine, and we will continue working to obtain them – not only at the political level with states and leaders but also directly with manufacturers of all necessary air defense systems and missiles for them", the president continued.

Russia's Ministry of Defense claims to have destroyed approximately 40 Patriot launchers since 2023.

New contracts being prepared

US President Donald Trump has so far declined to deliver Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine, but has instead urged NATO countries to purchase American weapons on Kiev's behalf. Moscow has consistently stated that no foreign support will change the battlefield situation in Ukraine's favor.

Last month, Zelensky said that Ukraine and the US are preparing a contract for 25 Patriot systems. He added that deliveries could take several years unless EU countries show "goodwill" by prioritizing Kiev or transferring systems they already own.

With a cost of approximately $1 billion per system, Ukraine hopes to finance the purchases through an EU loan backed by frozen Russian assets. Russia has, for its part, condemned all attempts to confiscate its assets as theft.

Orbán: Poland has become a vassal of Brussels

The globalist agenda

Published November 3, 2025 – By Editorial staff
Relations between Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk (left) and Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán are becoming increasingly toxic.

Relations between Viktor Orbán in Hungary and Donald Tusk in Poland are deepening into an open conflict over both EU influence and the war in Ukraine. Orbán argues that the Tusk problem goes far beyond bilateral disagreements — it's about Poland being given the role of Brussels' vassal state.

The Hungarian Prime Minister claims that Poland under Tusk has taken a dramatic step toward losing national autonomy and has also become a "vassal of Brussels".

"He has become one of the loudest warmongers in Europe – yet his war policy is failing: Ukraine is running out of European money, and the Polish people are tired of the war. He cannot change course because he has turned Poland into a vassal of Brussels", Orbán writes in a post on X.

Beyond the war in Ukraine, questions about the EU's role are also central to the conflict. Orbán has previously accused Brussels of playing an active role in helping Donald Tusk's EU-friendly government come to power in Poland.

Donald Tusk has in turn criticized Orbán for viewing "Brussels, democracy and a transparent rule of law are a problem", an attack that has further escalated tensions between the countries.

Shift in Polish public opinion

According to an opinion poll from the IBRiS institute, currently only 33.5 percent of Poles support Ukraine's NATO membership. This represents a shift that leads Orbán to claim that Europe is waking up, and that Polish public support for Ukraine is declining.

Donald Tusk, however, has declared the war in Ukraine as "our war", referring to the fact that the future of Poland and Europe is at stake. Orbán responds that both Poland and the EU are playing a dangerous game with the lives of millions of Europeans.

Hungary's repeated blocking of military support to Ukraine and its application for EU and NATO membership has long been a thorn in the side of Poland and other EU member states.

Poland and Hungary previously belonged to the so-called Visegrád Group (V4) and often shared positions against Brussels. But as the war in Ukraine progressed and major strategic dividing lines emerged, the relationship has become strained.

While Tusk strives to gain increased influence for Poland within the EU and NATO, Orbán has made it clear that he wants to see a different kind of European order — where nation-states have greater freedom and Brussels' central power is questioned.

Trump and Xi reach trade deal – promise “everlasting peace and success”

The new multipolar world order

The United States and China have concluded a one-year trade agreement that will reduce American tariffs on Chinese goods from 57 to 47 percent.

President Donald Trump described the agreement as groundbreaking following his meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping on October 30 during the APEC summit in Busan, South Korea.

In a post on the social media platform Truth Social, Trump stated: "My G2 meeting with President Xi of China was a great one for both of our countries. This meeting will lead to everlasting peace and success. God bless both China and the USA!"

Aboard the presidential plane Air Force One on his way back to Washington, Trump confirmed that the countries had reached an agreement.

— We have a deal, he told assembled journalists and explained that the trade agreement will be renegotiated annually.

— Every year we'll renegotiate the deal, but I think the deal will go on for a long time, long beyond the year. We'll negotiate at the end of the year.

Fentanyl behind tariff reduction

Trump emphasized that the ten percentage point tariff reduction from 57 to 47 percent is directly linked to China agreeing to take strong action against the fentanyl problem.

— It was 57, now it's 47.

He further explained that the reduction was due to the fentanyl issue and China's actions.

— We reduced it by the fentanyl because I believe they are really taking strong action. We've already seen the action on fentanyl, and they're taking very strong action. So reduced to 10 percent.

Large purchases of agricultural products

In a further announcement, Trump stated that China has committed to immediately purchasing "large and tremendous amounts" of soybeans and other American agricultural products as part of the agreement.

— We're in agreement on so many elements. Large amounts, tremendous amounts of the soybeans and other farm products are going to be purchased, starting immediately. If you notice, President Xi authorised yesterday for China to start buying very large quantities of soybeans and other things, which I appreciated. That was a very nice gesture.

The announcement comes after China earlier this year halted its purchases of American soybeans in response to Trump's tariff announcements. The halt left American farmers with unsold crops worth billions of dollars, according to CNN.
