From the New York Post: Former White House official Steve Bannon urged President Trump on Thursday to investigate Elon Musk’s immigration status, deport him “immediately” and “seize” his company SpaceX, amid the war of words between the world’s richest man and the commander-in-chief.
Bannon urged the president to immediately invoke the Defense Production Act to take control of Musk’s rocket company in response to the billionaire entrepreneur’s declaration that he would decommission the SpaceX craft used to shuttle astronauts back and forth from the International Space Station (ISS).
“The action that President Trump should be taking immediately, I think, is when [Musk] threatens to take one of the big programs out of Space X, President Trump tonight should sign an executive order calling for the Defense Production Act to be called in on SpaceX and seize SpaceX tonight, before midnight,” Bannon said on his “War Room” podcast.
The Defense Production Act, a Korean War-era provision, grants the president the authority to require private companies to accept and prioritize government contracts for the manufacture of goods needed for national defense.
However, the report explains that the Act does NOT give presidents the authority to seize private companies.
Musk responded to a video of Bannon’s remarks, writing, “Bannon is peak retard
@IfindRetards.”

Bannon claimed, without offering any proof, that Elon Musk is an “illegal alien,” and demanded he be deported immediately.
