Susan Walsh/AP; Erin Scott/Reuters There's no love lost between Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg. The billionaire tech CEOs — who helm Tesla and SpaceX, and Facebook, respectively — have been feuding since at least 2016, when a SpaceX rocket explosion destroyed a Facebook satellite. Since then, they've butted heads over everything from artificial intelligence to Facebook's data-collection practices. Most recently, Musk tied Facebook to the violent insurrection in Washington, DC, describing it as a "domino effect." Visit Business Insider's homepage for more stories.
Business Insider reports that Elon Musk is $8 billion away from surpassing Bill Gates as the world's second-richest person. This week Musk's wealth has continued to climb. Musks networth hit $114 billion after Tesla was added to the S&P 500 index, edging out Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg. It's gained another $10.2 billion after Tesla shares spiked 10% on Wednesday, according to Bloomberg.

Esper, Trump's fifth defense secretary, was replaced with National Counterterrorism Center Director Christopher Miller in an acting capacity.

Adam Smith (D-WA) said Trump's 'childish' and 'reckless' firing before the projected presidential transition in January could destabilize the Pentagon. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was blunt with her remarks in a brief statement. The abrupt firing of Secretary Esper is disturbing evidence that President Trump is intent on using his final days in office to sow chaos in our American Democracy and around the world.
