Mr Musk, who is facing accusations of stoking far-Right violence on Britain’s streets by suggesting civil war was “inevitable”, told his 193million followers the SNP MSP “loathes white people”.
Mr Yousaf called Mr Musk a "dangerous race baiter" who must be held to account for his actions.
Also taking to X, he said: "I can't think what it is that upsets him so much about a Brown, Muslim, progressive politician? But his billions won't stop me calling out his support for the far-Right."

Mr Yousaf's lawyer said: “Anybody who goes on social media, even if they own the platform and thinks that free speech is absolute whether in the UK or USA, needs to think again. Free speech carries responsibility and if you break the law there are consequences, as we have seen in recent days.
