A local meteorologist who worked for Milwaukee’s CBS affiliate was fired from her job after she posted criticism on social media denouncing Elon Musk as a “Nazi” over his controversial arm gesture at a pro-Trump rally.

Giannis Antetokounmpo shared a photo on Instagram of him shooting hoops at Fiserv Forum with his starting five.

Meteorologist Sam Kuffel is not the first local broadcaster to get in hot water because of comments they've made on social media or on the air.

But the latest hysteria came after billionaire Tesla founder and close Trump supporter Elon Musk gave a speech at the inaugural parade held at Capital One Arena following the swearing in ceremony. During the speech, while standing behind the presidential podium, Musk made an awkward gesture that the left quickly claimed was a Nazi salute.

Musk has promoted antisemitic and white nationalist content online, and has endorsed a neo-Nazi party in Germany.

On Tuesday, conservative radio host Dan O’Donnell sharply criticized Kuffel for her two Instagram posts, accusing her of “spreading the lie that Elon Musk was giving a Nazi salute” during the presidential inauguration. He labeled her posts “vulgar.”

In April 2023, Ali Abdi, also known as Ayooli, decided to start his own TikTok. He had been making music and skits on Instagram for a while, but after talking with other Milwaukee rappers, he figured it was time to try the app out.

TikTok is back online after a temporary shutdown late Saturday night, leaving local creators both relieved and concerned about the platform's uncertain future.
