The president of Tesla – Robyn Denholm – responded to a report published by the Wall Street Journal via the X platform Thursday, denying the allegations that the company began to “seek an alternative to Elon Musk” last month, in the midst of an increase in the examination of his new role in the administration of the American president Donald Trump.
The Chairman of the Board of Directors of Tesla denies the report of the Wall Street Journal
And what was broadcast from news on Elon Musk, Dinholm said: “Earlier in the day, a report which included poor assertion that Tesla’s board of directors communicated with employment companies to seek a new executive director of the company.” She added: “This statement is absolutely incorrect, and it was clarified in the media before the report was published.”
Previously, there was a media report wrongly claiming that the board of directors of Tesla had contracted recruitment companies to initiate a search to the company.
This is absolutely false (and it was communicated to the media before the report was out of ad).

“Elon Musk is still Tesla’s CEO, and he has great confidence in the board of directors in his ability to continue to implement the next ambitious growth plan,” she added. In turn, Musk commented on the X platform, denying what was indicated in the report of the Wall Street Journal, describing it as a “serious violation of moral standards” and which it “deliberately manufactured an article”.
Elon Musk faces a storm of skepticism about Tesla
The CEO of SpaceX faced a wave of criticism in the context of its assumption of the presidency of the Government Effective Agency (DOGE), at a time when the United States has seen in recent months a series of attacks with political motivations targeting Tesla vehicles, exhibitions and maritime stations.
In a related context, the manufacturer of electric cars in the 2025 first quarter report enlightened the disappointing results, as its net profits decreased by more than 71%.
While talking during an open meeting with the public in the state of Wisconsin last March, the veteran investor Chipto indicated an overview of the arrows of the money that affected his business. On this occasion, which was sponsored by its organization “American PAC” supporting the Crapeto sector, Musk said: “The value of my actions and actions of all those who have a participation in Tesla have dropped by almost half, and it is really a question of vigor.”
For its part, Wall Street Journal was founded in 1889, the most widespread newspaper in the United States, and is often adopted by editorial trends that tend to the views of the moderate right. Trump and the members of the far right have long expressed their lack of confidence in certain media, and they often describe the articles with which they differ as “false news”. An example of this, said Mask in an article on the X platform on May 1, saying: “Wall Street Journal distorted the press credibility.”
