America on Edge: 5 States Hit Hardest as Elon Musk’s Empire Unravels

The first sign was silence.
No updates, no meetings, no reassurance—just inboxes that stayed eerily quiet.
Across the United States, Tesla and X employees began to sense something was off.
Within days, unease turned into fear.
Factories slowed, internal chats went cold, and rumors spread faster than facts.
In California, Texas, Nevada, New York, and Washington, workers whispered the same question: Are we next?
Tesla plants that once symbolized innovation now felt fragile.

Contractors delayed orders.

For years, Elon Musk’s empire was built on bold risk and relentless confidence.

As pressure mounted and leadership stayed silent, one unsettling thought took hold—
If the world’s most powerful tech empire can wobble this fast, what happens next?
