Anti-Elon Musk Rep. Andre Carson drives around in taxpayer-funded Tesla

A “shameless” Indiana Democrat is so anti-Elon Musk he’s pushing legislation to rein in the billionaire’s power, yet drives around in a Tesla leased with taxpayer dough, records show.

Rep. Andre Carson (D-Ind) has denounced the Tesla founder as untrustworthy and last month introduced a bill in direct response to Musk and the “shameful invasion of Americans’ privacy.”

But Carson, 50, apparently has no qualms — at least until The Post inquired — about cruising around in one of Musk’s Teslas.

The latest House disbursement records show Carson claimed almost $11,000 of public money last year to pay Tesla Finance LLC for the lease of one of its cars.
