Inside Musk's plan to make a ‘legion' of babies and get to Mars to save civilization — while paying moms to keep quiet
Elon Musk has a plan to populate the world with more babies of 'high intelligence' — and it's all part of his wider mission to one day occupy Mars to save civilization.
That is according to an explosive report by the Wall Street Journal about the world's richest man and how MAGA influencer Ashley St Clair found herself caught up in his 'harem drama.'
St Clair, 26, went public with her claims that she and Musk share a child in February. Now she has claimed that the billionaire offered her a one-time payment of $15 million, plus $100,000 a month until her child turns 21, in exchange for her silence.
She rejected the offer. 'I don't want my son to feel like he's a secret,' St Clair reportedly told Musk's fixer Jared Birchall, who runs Musk's family office.
St Clair claimed that Musk has used his wealth to silence some of the other women who have had his children, according to the report.
Musk, who has at least 14 children with four women, previously maintained that he does not know 'for sure' whether St Clair's child is his but the 'Probability of Paternity was 99.9999%,' according to test results that came back last Friday, the Journal reports. According to multiple sources close to the tech mogul, the number of Musk's children is 'much higher than publicly known.'
Musk did not respond to the outlet's request for comment but made light of it on his social media platform X. 'TMZ >> WSJ,' he posted late Tuesday.
The Independent has contacted representatives of Musk for comment.
The report contains extraordinary details about how Musk believes a declining population is a grave threat to civilization. 'He is driven to correct the historic moment by helping seed the earth with more human beings of high intelligence,' the Journal reports, citing people familiar with the matter.
St Clair gained an insight into Musk's 'paranoid' way of thinking when they dated in 2023 after meeting in the spring of that year. Their romance began on Musk's social media platform X after he began to interact with her posts.
She was invited by Musk to visit X's headquarters in San Francisco. From there, he took her on a separate trip to Rhode Island on his private plane, where the Space X CEO was visiting one of his sons at college, and then later on a getaway to St. Barts for New Year.
During their time together, Musk frequently talked to St Clair about having children, she claimed. 'The first time they had sex, Musk joked that they should 'pick a name' for their future child,' the outlet reports.
On the trip to St. Barts, she told Musk that she was ovulating. 'What are we waiting for?' he reportedly replied, and their son was conceived, according to St Clair.
During St Clair's pregnancy, she claimed Musk suggested they 'bring in other women to have even more of their children faster' in his mission to save civilization.
'To reach legion-level before the apocalypse,' Musk told St Clair in a text message seen by the Journal. 'We will need to use surrogates,' he added.
Once visibly pregnant, St Clair stayed inside her apartment in New York City to avoid speculation. Birchall was instructed by Musk to send her $2 million for expenses, the Journal reports, which she used in part to pay for security.
Birchall also reportedly warned St Clair that Musk expected 'privacy and confidentiality' about the child. After the birth, St Clair was 'pushed' again to sign the $15 million agreement in exchange for her discretion.
Musk then weighed in and told St Clair that it was dangerous to reveal his relationship to the baby. He described himself as the '#2 after Trump for assassination' in text messages seen by the Journal. 'Only the paranoid survive,' he added.
St Clair didn't sign the agreement. 'One of the main sticking points, she said, was that it would make her son feel illegitimate,' the outlet reports.
When she learned a newspaper was planning to publish a story about the child, St Clair went public.
'Five months ago, I welcomed a new baby into the world. Elon Musk is the father,' she wrote in February. 'I have not previously disclosed this to protect our child's privacy and safety, but in recent days it has become clear that tabloid media intends to do so, regardless of the harm it will cause.'
Musk revoked the $15 million offer, according to the outlet, and the case went to court to discuss paternity testing. In the meantime, Musk dropped his support to $40,000 a month while St Clair's legal fees soared.
After the publication of the Journal's report, St Clair claimed the amount Musk paid in child support had dropped to $20,000.

Donald Trump says he has 'no desire' to mend bromance with Elon Musk
Donald Trump has 'no desire' to mend his broken relationship with Elon Musk and believed their bromance is over. The US president also warned the billionaire, who helped propel him back to the White House, there would be 'serious consequences' if he starts funding Democrat candidates. They traded vicious insults this week after the Tesla and SpaceX owner used his social media site X to trash Trump's 'Big Beautiful Bill'. Musk has since deleted some of his more incendiary barbs, including one post in which he alleged that Trump was 'in the Epstein files'. He has also removed another suggesting his former boss should be removed from office, appearing to seek a de-escalation in the feud. But in a telephone interview with NBC, Trump was asked whether his relationship with Musk is now over, to which he replied: 'I would assume so, yeah.' When pushed on whether he has any desire to repair it, he said: 'No.' Dr Katie Pruszynski, a Trump specialist and researcher at the University of Sheffield, told Metro the public falling out between the president and Musk was 'inevitable'. 'Trump has long rejected the human causes of climate change, but Musk's flagship company, Tesla, remains one of the world's largest manufacturers of electric cars,' she explained. 'Musk, himself an immigrant, supports visas for highly skilled workers, while Trump's advisors briefly flirted with the idea of ending the scheme in their major crackdown on immigration numbers. But she added: 'These differences pale into insignificance compared to the real problem between the two; their enormous egos and desire to be the centre of attention. 'There simply isn't room in the Oval Office for both of them, and it was always going to end like this.' The spectacular spat could potentially have 'significant' consequences, Dr Pruszynski said, with White House advisors hoping it doesn't divert attention away from the administration's work. Musk, meanwhile, will be keen to avoid the choking off of the huge government subsidies and funds his companies receive. Earlier, Trump's vice president JD Vance said Musk had made a 'big mistake' in going after him. But he also tried to downplay Musk's blistering attacks, saying he is an 'emotional guy' who got frustrated. More Trending 'I hope that eventually Elon comes back into the fold. Maybe that's not possible now because he's gone so nuclear,' Vance said. 'Look, it happens to everybody. I've flown off the handle way worse than Elon Musk did in the last 24 hours.' Trump late on Friday suggested a review of federal government contracts held by Musk. People who have spoken to Musk said his anger has begun to recede and they think he will want to repair his relationship with Trump.

From bros to foes: how the unlikely Trump-Musk relationship imploded
Two White House officials familiar with the matter said Trump expressed confusion and frustration in the meeting about Musk's attacks on his sweeping tax and spending bill. But he held back, the officials said, because he wanted to preserve Musk's political and financial support ahead of the midterm elections. By Thursday afternoon, Trump's mood had shifted. He had not spoken to Musk since the attacks began and was fuming over what one White House aide described as a 'completely bats**t' tirade by the Tesla CEO on X, his social media platform. Musk had blasted Trump's tax bill as fiscally reckless and a 'disgusting abomination'. He vowed to oppose any Republican lawmaker who supported it. The bill would fulfil many of Trump's priorities while adding, according to the Congressional Budget Office, $2.4 trillion to the $36.2 trillion US public debt. Privately, Trump had called Musk volatile. On Thursday, he told his team, it was time to take the gloves off. Sitting next to German Chancellor Friedrich Merz in the Oval Office, Trump told reporters he was 'very disappointed' in his former adviser. Musk quickly hit back on social media and the back-and-forth devolved from there. 'The easiest way to save money in our budget, billions and billions of dollars, is to terminate Elon's government subsidies and contracts,' Trump posted on Truth Social, his social media site. Within minutes, Musk said it might be time to create a new political party and endorsed a post on X from Ian Miles Cheong, a prominent Musk supporter and right-wing activist, calling for Trump's impeachment. The Trump-Musk relationship at its height was unprecedented in Washington — a sitting president granting a billionaire tech CEO access and influence inside the White House and throughout his government. Musk spent nearly $300m backing Trump's campaign and other Republicans last year. For months, Musk played both insider and disruptor, shaping policy conversations behind the scenes, amplifying Trump's agenda to millions online, and attacking the bureaucracy and federal spending through his self-styled Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Just last week, Trump hosted a farewell for Musk and declared that 'Elon is really not leaving'. Now, he had not only left but had turned into a top critic. Hours after Trump's Oval Office remarks, a third White House official expressed surprise at Musk's turnaround. It 'caught the president and the entire West Wing off guard', she said. Musk did not respond to emails seeking comment about the downturn in relations. His super PAC spending group, America PAC, and spokeswoman Katie Miller did not respond to calls and texts requesting comment. In a statement, the White House called the breakup an 'unfortunate episode from Elon, who is unhappy with the One Big Beautiful Bill because it does not include the policies he wanted'. The Musk-Trump breakup sent Tesla's stock price plunging and drove uncertainty among Trump's allies in Congress, who are working to pass the monumental spending package that Democrats and a small number of vocal Republicans oppose. The breakup could reshape both men's futures. For Trump, losing Musk's backing threatens his growing influence among tech donors, social media audiences, and younger male voters — key groups that may now be harder to reach. It could also complicate fundraising ahead of next year's midterm elections. For Musk, the stakes are potentially even higher. The break risks intensified scrutiny of his business practices that could jeopardise government contracts and invite regulatory probes, which might threaten his companies' profits. Some of Musk's friends and associates were stunned by the fallout, with a number of them only recently expressing confidence that the partnership would endure, according to two other sources familiar with the dynamics. The split had been simmering for weeks, said the first two White House officials, but the breaking point was over personnel: Trump's decision to pull his nomination of Jared Isaacman, Musk's hand-picked candidate to be Nasa administrator. 'He was not happy' about Isaacman, one of the White House officials said of Musk. Isaacman, a billionaire entrepreneur and close Musk ally, was seen as key to advancing Musk's vision for space exploration and commercial space ventures. After his nomination was scuttled, Isaacman posted on X: 'I am incredibly grateful to President Trump, the Senate and all those who supported me.' The move was viewed within the administration as a direct snub to Musk, the two officials said, signalling a loss of political clout and deepening the rift between him and Trump's team. Before the Isaacman episode, top White House aides behind the scenes had already begun limiting Musk's influence — quietly walking back his authority over staffing and budget decisions. Trump himself reinforced that message in early March, telling his cabinet that department secretaries, not Musk, had the final say over agency operations. At the same time, Musk began to hint that his time in government would come to a close, while expressing frustration at times that he could not more aggressively cut spending. His threats and complaints about Trump's bill grew louder, but inside the White House, few believed they would seriously alter the course of the legislation — even as some worried about the fallout on the midterms from Musk's warnings to cut political spending, the first two White House officials said. Still, a fourth White House official dismissed the impact of Musk's words on the president's signature bill. 'We're very confident,' he said. 'No one has changed their minds.' But there was bafflement at the White House at how a relationship that only last week had been celebrated in the Oval Office had taken such a turn. Time will tell whether the rift can be repaired. White House aides have scheduled a call between the two men on Friday.

Trump says ex-pal Elon Musk can keep his golden White House key
Trump and Musk had a public falling out this week after the billionaire, who worked part-time for the federal government until last month, waged a war on the president's tax bill over it's projected $2.5 trillion price tag. The fight spiraled as the pair traded attacks, and the two men stopped speaking. Trump told reporters on June 6 that he was not interested in reconciling with Musk. Elon Musk hits back after Trump threatens contracts. SpaceX's government ties, explained In social media posts on June 5, the president said he asked Musk to leave his post spearheading the DOGE initiative and threatened to cancel billions of dollars of the SpaceX founder's federal contracts. Trump said the following day that he was serious about ending the government contracts --and would do so if he thought it was in the financial interest of the country. "We'll take look at everything. I look at everything. He's got a lot of money. He gets a lot of subsidy," Trump told reporters on June 6. "Only if it's to be fair for him and for the country, I would certainly think about it." Musk responded by saying he would decommission SpaceX's Dragon spacecraft immediately. He said in another post that without his help, Republicans would have lost the House and Senate and Trump would not currently be the president. A Washington Post analysis found that Musk's companies have received at least $38 billion in government contracts, loans, subsidies and tax credits over the years. SpaceX has about $22 billion in government contracts alone, Reuters reported. Trump says he's 'not thinking' about ex-pal Musk While the country might be twittering about his breakup with Musk, the president said on June 6 that his focus was squarely on a cache of complex international issues. "Honestly, I've been so busy working on China, working on Russia, working on Iran ... I'm not thinking about Elon Musk," Trump told reporters riding with him on Air Force One to his New Jersey golf club. He also claimed he had not thought about whether or not he would keep his new Tesla. SpaceX works closely with the Department of Defense and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. But the president told reporters the federal government can survive without its partnerships with Musk's companies. "The U.S. can survive without almost anybody," Trump said. "Except me."
