— Ilhan Omar (@IlhanMN) January 12, 2026 While 60% of Omar’s district is white, foreign-born residents make up 14% of the population, with a large portion of them being Somalis, according to Data USA. Despite Omar’s accusations, Musk owns several tech companies, such as Tesla, and has made himself one of the most influential tech innovators in the modern era. He is the founder, CEO and chief engineer of SpaceX, which has made massive inroads in space exploration and technologies. He also purchased Twitter in April 2022, which he later renamed X Corps., for $44 billion. SpaceX has launched 246 rockets, 207 of which successfully landed, and is the only private company to return a spacecraft from low-Earth orbit and take humans to and from the International Space Station. The company is worth $100 billion, making it one of the most valuable companies in the world. Musk is also the co-founder and owner of Neuralink Corporation, a neurotechnology company developing implantable brain-machine interfaces, which is intended to create brain implants that can communicate with phones and computers and help people with paralysis gain independence.
