Protesters Gather at Chicago-area Tesla Dealership to Oppose Musk

Hundreds of people gathered in Libertyville to protest against Elon Musk and Donald Trump, condemning their impact on government policies and budget reductions. The demonstrators voiced discontent about cuts to federal services and Musk's effect on Tesla's reputation. Protest organizer Denise Poloyac declared, "They’re stealing from us, and we are here to show our anger about it." Jacqueline Babb cautioned that Musk's ties to Tesla have become "problematic," advocating for a separation between businesses and individuals.
