Elon Musk Files A Big Lawsuit Against Whoopi Goldberg Over A Joke

Elon Musk Takes Legal Action Against Whoopi Goldberg Over “Murder Joke” Involving Him and JD Vanc

Whoopi Goldberg has found herself at the center of controversy following a joke she made on *The View* about the hypothetical murder of a high-profile figure. The remark, which involved President-elect Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and the world’s richest man, Elon Musk, has sparked outrage, with Musk reportedly planning to take legal action against the longtime talk show host.

Goldberg, 69, made the off-color comment during a discussion on the growing influence of Musk, particularly his increasing role within the incoming administration. The remark, which many found distasteful, framed Musk and Vance as the conspirators behind an imagined plot to harm the President-elect. While Goldberg likely intended it as humor, the comment was immediately met with backlash, especially from conservative figures and Trump supporters.

The conversation on *The View* began as the hosts discussed Musk’s significant influence, with Goldberg taking it a step further by joking that Musk, with his growing power, might as well be the “real” vice president of the United States. She hinted that Musk’s decision-making power was effectively elevating him to the second-in-command position within the incoming administration.
