Elon Musk has slammed The Wall Street Journal over claims that he is on a personal quest to father a "legion" of children.
The publication made the claims in a recent report featuring an interview with Ashley St. Clair, Musk's alleged baby mama, who recently welcomed his 13th child.
Using a few words, Elon Musk called out the Wall Street Journal, without denying the startling claims made in the article.
The Billionaire Slammed WSJ Over 'Legion' Of Babies Report

Just as the drama surrounding Musk's alleged 13th child seemed to be dying down, The Wall Street Journal reignited the frenzy with a bombshell report claiming the tech mogul is desperately trying to raise a "legion" of children.
"The Tactics Elon Musk Uses to Manage His 'Legion' of Babies—and Their Mothers," read the report's headline, alongside a photo of Ashley St. Clair, who was interviewed for the report.
The outlet went on to make several damning claims, including suggesting that Musk's attempt to build an unusually large family is his plan to assist with population growth.
Responding to the claims, Musk took a brief but pointed jab at the outlet with just a few words: "TMZ >> WSJ."
The sharp dig appeared to suggest that The Wall Street Journal's report was nothing more than gossip fodder, while the outlet itself is less credible, in his view, than celebrity tabloid TMZ.
Elon Musk Allegedly Promised Ashley St. Clair Millions To Conceal His Identity as the Father Of Her Child

More explosive revelations in the WSJ report came directly from St. Clair, who opened up about her now-fractured arrangement with Musk.
According to the conservative influencer, the tech mogul allegedly offered her a staggering one-time payment of $15 million in exchange for keeping his identity as the father of her child a secret.
On top of that, he reportedly sweetened the deal with the promise of a $100,000 monthly allowance.
St. Clair said she came close to accepting the deal and even removed Musk's name from the birth certificate.
Their Relationship Became Strained Over A Legal Agreement

Things quickly unraveled between Musk and St. Clair when Musk's top aide, Jared Birchall, attempted to have her sign a legal agreement.
The agreement would permanently keep Musk's parentage under wraps in return for the millions he offered her.
Feeling cornered by the one-sided nature of the deal, particularly that Musk could still speak negatively about her while she remained silenced, St. Clair ultimately refused to sign.
That refusal seemingly set the stage for the recent social media crossfire between her and the billionaire, although Musk has yet to directly respond to St.Clair on social media.
Elon Musk Reportedly Offered The Same Deal To His Alleged 'Harem'

Elsewhere in the piece, St. Clair told WSJ that several other women who have had children with Musk were offered the same deal she was, which was one of the reasons she even considered it.
Some of these women, described by the outlet as part of Musk's "harem," live in a secluded Austin compound, according to the conservative influencer.
After the birth of their child, Musk allegedly tried to persuade St. Clair to move there as well, just like the other women and children he tagged as "kid legion."
Meanwhile, St. Clair also said that she noticed Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis, another of Musk's known baby mamas, resides there and serves as a "steadying force" within what she hinted felt like a cult-like environment.
She further pointed out that Musk "comes and goes" as he pleases and is given special treatment whenever he arrives at the compound.
The Billionaire's Alleged Baby Mama Took The Tech Mogul To Court Over Custody Rights

Previously, St. Clair filed two petitions against Musk amid her fight to make him publicly acknowledge their child.
In one of them, she asked the court to legally declare Musk as the father of the child, adding numerous claims and photo evidence to back up her request.
According to the New York Post, the evidence includes a photo of Musk holding an infant, presumed to be the child, alongside flirtatious texts they allegedly exchanged.
In her other petition, St. Clair asked the court to grant her sole custody of the child while calling out Musk for shirking his fatherhood responsibilities.
She claimed that Musk was a no-show during the child's birth and that he only visited three times since the baby's birth, with two of those meetings occurring in Manhattan, where she lives.
