The billionaire and top Trump adviser criticized Kelly after the senator reaffirmed U.S. support for Ukraine during his recent trip.

  • Sen. Mark Kelly visited Ukraine over the weekend, marking his third trip since 2023, to meet with service members and reaffirm U.S. support for the country's sovereignty.
  • Elon Musk, a key adviser to President Donald Trump, called Kelly a 'traitor' in response to the senator's comments on the importance of protecting Ukraine's security.
  • Kelly defended his stance, emphasizing that supporting Ukraine is critical to defending freedom and maintaining U.S. credibility on the global stage.
