White House spokesperson Andrew Bates said in a statement posted to X, formerly known as Twitter, that the White House condemns “this abhorrent promotion of Antisemitic and racist hate in the strongest terms.”

“It is unacceptable to repeat the hideous lie behind the most fatal act of Antisemitism in American history at any time, let alone one month after the deadliest day for the Jewish people since the Holocaust,” Bates wrote.

The Tesla and SpaceX CEO later followed up his post to claim that the Anti-Defamation League “unjustly attacks the majority of the West, despite the majority of the West supporting the Jewish people and Israel” because they cannot “criticize the minority groups who are their primary threat.”

Musk’s endorsement of the post comes against a backdrop of rising antisemitism in the United States after the Oct. 7 Hamas attack on Israel. Bates said the White House will “continue to condemn antisemitism at every turn.”
