Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who has become Trump's closest ally, has defended Matt Gates, the nominee for attorney general, whose Senate confirmation has become uncertain due to allegations of underage sex purchases.

In a post on social media, Musk claimed Gates had the good brains and steel wick needed to serve as attorney general.

He also compared Gates to "Jersey Dread," a famous cartoon character who convicts criminals, and stressed that he will liquidate the corrupt system and put the villain in prison, and will be the hammer of our justice.

Musk said he believes the accusation against Gates is worth nothing and that under our law, he considers it innocent until proven guilty.

He also stressed that the case was closed, saying that Garland, the current attorney general, would have been able to bring out a conviction against Gates, but he knew he couldn't.

After Gates, who was investigated by the House Ethics Committee for allegations of underage prostitution and drug use, was nominated as attorney general, opposition is spreading not only in the Democratic Party but also in the Republican Party.

Gates was also investigated by the FBI over allegations of underage sex purchases, but he was not charged with lack of evidence.
