Musk calls Sen. Kelly a 'traitor' over trip to Ukraine, Kelly hits back [View all]

Source: ABC News

Kelly, in a thread on X Sunday night, posted photos of his visit to Ukraine and wrote that "Everyone wants this war to end, but any agreement has to protect Ukraine's security and can't be a giveaway to Putin."

In a reply to the thread, Musk responded, "You are a traitor."

Kelly, a former Navy pilot and astronaut, responded in a separate post on X.

"Traitor? Elon, if you don't understand that defending freedom is a basic tenet of what makes America great and keeps us safe, maybe you should leave it to those of us who do," wrote Kelly, whose recent trip marked his third visit to Ukraine since 2023.
