From Australia to Europe and the US, demonstrators rallied against carmaker's dismantling of US federal government

Thousands of people worldwide protested Elon Musk and his efforts with Donald Trump to dismantle the US federal government on Saturday, with rallies held in front of nearly every Tesla showroom in the US and many around the world – a concerted effort to go after the billionaire's deep pockets as the CEO of the electric vehicle maker.

Protest organizers asked people to do three things: don't buy a Tesla, sell off Tesla stock and join the "Tesla Takedown" movement.
