Elon Musk delivered a blunt patriotic message over the Independence Day weekend, declaring that anyone who does not love the United States should be expelled from the country. The billionaire entrepreneur made the remarks Sunday as part of a series of pro-America posts shared on X, the social media platform he owns.

Musk’s comments came in response to a post by former Los Angeles mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt, who wrote that it was “OK to love America.”

The Tesla and SpaceX CEO argued that such a statement did not go nearly far enough.

He wrote:

“Not merely ‘ok.’ Anyone who doesn’t love America is a traitor and beneath contempt. Those who don’t love America, those who are disloyal should be exiled immediately.”

The post was one of several patriotic messages Musk shared throughout the Fourth of July holiday. Among them was an old photograph of himself as a young man standing in front of an American flag. He also reposted a portion of Vice President JD Vance’s Independence Day address and shared a video in which he likened the United States to Atlas, carrying the weight of the world.

In another message celebrating the nation’s founding, Musk reflected on reading one of America’s foundational documents.

“I read the Declaration of Independence out loud today with heartfelt conviction,” Musk said in another post. “It is a work not just of genius, but also of a purity of soul that resonates to this very day.”
