Walz: "To Americans who are watching this, I've got a question for you: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal govt that can kill, injury, menace, & kidnap its citizens off the streets? Or on the side of a nurse at the VA hospital who died bearing witness to such govt?"

In which Elon Musk calls a US Senator and former Navy Captain a traitor, because he wants peace and opposes a Putin victory in Ukraine. This must mean Musk supports Putin ahead of democratically elected US officials, The US military, and NATO. You can draw no other logical conclusion.
