Elon Musk issued an eerie warning to Democrat Rep. Maxine Waters after she commented on First Lady Melania Trump’s citizenship validity.

It all came to a head when Waters suggested that Melania should be investigated and even potentially deported from the US during a video of her speech addressing a rally against the Department of Government Efficiency in LA, went viral online.

This led to Musk, co-department head of DOGE, hitting out at her, and issuing a strange threat.

Walter's video, which was shared by Fox News’s Sean Hannity on 25 March on X saw her sending a message to President Donald Trump.

She said: "If he wants to start looking so closely to find those who were born here and their parents were undocumented, maybe he ought to first look at Melania.”

Waters then said that nobody knows if her parents were documented or not, and that ‘maybe we better just take a look’.

This comes after Trump signed an executive order that outlaws’ birthright citizenship.

“We are here because we are not going to let Trump, we’re not going to let Elon Musk, his co-president, or anybody else take the United States Constitution down,” Waters went on to tell the crowd.

Musk then reacted to her video with a threat, writing: “At some point, the many crimes of Maxine Waters will catch up to her.”

However, Waters does not have a criminal record.

Trump’s executive order against birthright citizenship, means big things for those who move to the US and start a family.

The 14th Amendment to the US constitution states: "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside."

Basically, the legal principle grants citizenship to anyone born in a country, regardless of their parents' citizenship.

So, it allows nearly everyone born on US soil to immediately be a US citizen.

However, his order means that children born in the US, but without at least one parent who is a lawful permanent resident or US citizen, are no longer automatically extended US citizenship.

Melania, who is originally from former Yugoslavia, went on to receive her US citizenship in 2006 and the pair also went on to have a son together, Barron Trump.

It was only after getting her own citizenship that she sponsored her parents Viktor and Amalija Knavs for green cards and citizenship, as per the New York Times.

They then obtained US citizenship in 2018 and have been citizens ever since.

As for Barron, he is a US citizen by birth as, Trump was a 'natural-born US citizen' at the time of his birth, while his mother was a lawful permanent resident, but held a green card since 2001.

So, the executive order wouldn't impact him.
