The demonstration outside of Tesla, which is owned by Musk, was one of numerous nationwide Saturday. The protesters were speaking out against Musk’s position near the top of the Trump administration, from which he has sought to transform the scope and shape of the federal government, cutting staff heavily in certain departments.

They were not there to take aim at the company's electric vehicles, but the person behind Tesla - Elon Musk - and join with others who are upset at the world's richest man's work to disrupt and take apart large portions of the US government.
