President Joe Biden recently criticized Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla, for his stance on immigration after a report surfaced claiming Musk once worked illegally in the United States. The report, published by The Washington Post, suggests that Musk, who is from South Africa, entered the country on a student visa in 1995 but never enrolled in Stanford University. Instead, he focused on his startup, Zip2, and worked without proper authorization. Musk denies these allegations, countering that he was indeed allowed to work in the U. S.

The report raises questions about Musk's past, given his current position as the world's richest man and a significant donor to Republican candidates. Musk's actions in the past seem to contradict his current stance on immigration, which often mirrors former President Donald Trump's tough rhetoric. The Washington Post claims that Musk's initial plan was to use his student visa as a means to stay legally in the U. S. while working on his startup.

Musk's early challenges with immigration laws are a stark contrast to his current wealth and influence. His story serves as a reminder of the complexities and obstacles faced by immigrants seeking opportunities in the U. S. It also highlights the hypocrisy sometimes seen in those who advocate for strict immigration policies while benefiting from more lenient ones in the past.
