Ric Grenell tells Newsmax: Media Matters’ targeting of Musk is a ‘real blessing’

Former Acting Director of National Intelligence Ric Grenell stated on Newsmax that Media Matters’ legal entanglement with Elon Musk was a “real gift” because it would reveal the organization’s corruption to the public on a mass scale.

“Look, I think it’s a real gift to have somebody like Elon Musk be the target of this lawfare because he personally begins to know just how ridiculous it is,” Grenell tells “Rob Schmitt Tonight.”

Grenell explains that what Media Matters does is “they target you, they lie about you, and then they really, really peddle this information to all of the news outlets that support them, and so it becomes this self-fulfilling prophecy within the press newsrooms, and it’s all just a big lie.”

According to Reuters, X on “Monday sued media watchdog group Media Matters, alleging the organization defamed the platform after it published a report that said ads for major brands had appeared next to posts touting Adolf Hitler and the Nazi party.”

“To have somebody like Elon,” Grenell continued, “understand the enormity of what we’re dealing with with the left … is really, really important because now he’s got the platform to be able to pound this message and to show the world just what they do.”
