The battle for control of Disney is heating up, and it seems like conservative entrepreneur Elon Musk and billionaire investor Nelson Peltz are joining forces to take on the Magic Kingdom. Peltz has been working tirelessly to gain control of Disney by securing seats on the company’s board of directors. However, Disney has been fighting back, labeling Peltz as an “activist investor” and launching a social campaign to convince shareholders not to vote against him.

Now, Peltz is getting some reinforcements in the form of Elon Musk. Musk, known for his bold business ventures and outspoken views, has launched his own war against Disney. He recently filed a massive lawsuit on behalf of former Mandalorian actress Gina Carano, who was fired for expressing her opinions. Rumors are swirling that Musk’s vendetta against Disney is not just about Carano, but that he may be eyeing the company for a potential acquisition.
In a surprising turn of events, Musk and Peltz were recently seen together on the red carpet at the premiere of an indie film in which Peltz’s daughter has a role. Although this could be a mere coincidence, Musk himself hinted in an interview that he was there to think about possible acquisitions. While this doesn’t confirm his interest in Disney, it certainly raises eyebrows.
It seems like all roads lead to Peltz right now. Disney is under siege on multiple fronts. Peltz and Trian Management are aggressively buying up Disney stock, while Musk is causing financial headaches for the company through lawsuits and other means. On top of that, Disney is facing internal conflicts, with firings of top executives and a struggle to shed its woke reputation. It’s clear that Disney is shooting itself in the foot, opening the door for Peltz to gain control.
The coming months promise to be a battleground, with Carano’s lawsuit in full swing and Peltz’s fight for board seats intensifying. As a conservative, it’s difficult for me to trust Disney’s claims that it’s trying to return to its storytelling roots. The company’s actions speak louder than its words, and the turmoil within its ranks only strengthens Peltz and Musk’s position.
