U.S. Senator Cory Booker is facing backlash after making an extended-arm gesture during his speech at the California Democratic Convention — a move many online are comparing to a Nazi salute.
The moment instantly drew parallels to Elon Musk’s controversial gesture earlier this year, which sparked similar outrage.
Musk has now responded to Booker’s gesture, reigniting debate over symbolism, double standards, and political optics.
Is it a misunderstood expression — or something more serious?
Russia has issued a sharp rebuke to Germany, invoking its Nazi past and warning against its large-scale rearmament and NATO’s expansion. Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov called the military buildup near Russia’s borders "alarming," accusing Germany of fueling instability. As Berlin passes a $550B military fund and lifts missile restrictions with allies, Moscow warns of dire consequences. Lavrov also reignited rhetoric about “denazification,” framing Germany’s actions as provocative amid high-stakes talks between Zelensky and German Chancellor Merz.

Russian President Vladimir Putin slammed Ukrainian nationalists as "idiots" for destroying Soviet-era World War II monuments, linking the acts to neo-Nazi ideology. Citing Ukraine's de-communization efforts—such as removing statues and renaming cities—Putin accused Kyiv of erasing the Red Army's legacy and glorifying Nazi collaborators. He reaffirmed “de-Nazification” as a central goal of Russia’s war. Meanwhile, Moscow claimed full control over the Kursk border region, praising volunteers for thwarting last year's Ukrainian attempt to seize the nuclear power plant.

Elon Musk has stepped down from Donald Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (Doge), sparking intense speculation over who will succeed him. The frontrunner appears to be Indian-origin entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, who was initially appointed to co-run Doge before exiting to pursue gubernatorial ambitions. Other contenders include Amy Gleason, Tom Krause, and even a 23-year-old former intern. As Doge reels from Musk’s controversial reforms and job cuts, Trump remains tight-lipped, while questions swirl about the agency’s future and who will lead its radical mission next.

The New York Times has accused tech mogul Elon Musk of serious drug addiction, citing sources close to him. Musk, a close ally of President Donald Trump and former head of the DOGE task force, allegedly uses ketamine frequently and mixes it with ecstasy, psychedelics, and other medications. The report adds he carries a daily pill box with Adderall and was forewarned about SpaceX drug tests. Musk denied the claims, calling the Times untrustworthy, while affirming he will still advise Trump despite stepping down from his government role.
