Bloomberg News reports:
Elon Musk on Sunday deleted a tweet he posted earlier in the day espousing a conspiracy theory about an assault on Paul Pelosi, the husband of Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).
Musk had shared a link to an article detailing a right-wing conspiracy about the circumstances of the attack, which drew wide condemnation, from a website known for repeatedly publishing stories that are false.
Those past stories include a claim in 2016 that Clinton had died during that year’s presidential campaign and that a body double was sent to debate then GOP-candidate Donald Trump.

Musk today is tweeting out a story from the “Santa Monica Observer” … the same outlet that reported Hillary Clinton had died and been replaced by a body double for a debate with Trump. https://t.co/0PdnluoJrU https://t.co/j4x6riGDw1 pic.twitter.com/Nlr6t76SJF

Summary of the article Musk tweeted. For context, Musk is the one who has tried to buy a woman — his employee — a horse in exchange for sex. Sexual harassment that he lies about. pic.twitter.com/8N2HPdpG9A
