Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said Tuesday that her legal team is reviewing whether to pursue action against Elon Musk after the billionaire suggested on X that she responds to "her cartel bosses." She called the accusation "absurd" and said it "falls apart on its own."

"This absurd narco-government claim... if it was absurd before, it's even more so now," Sheinbaum said during her morning press conference. "They don't even know what to invent. It's almost laughable to read them."
