Elon also said his cars do just fine at combusting into non-extinguishable blazes on their own.

Deport him. Another company will come along and offer better products.

It certainly isn’t illegal or unprecedented for a billionaire CEO to use their money and influence in an attempt to sway the election in favor of their preferred candidate

One can only hope a new administration will find legal way to punish Musk. They can start by revoking the citizenship he essentially bought and deporting him back to South Africa. Severe punishment is appropriate.

I saw the phrase “nauseously optimistic” yesterday, and I think it’s a perfect summation of where we’re at.

Musk getting the boot out of the country would be the best possible thing that could happen to Tesla, absent President Harris instituting Norwegian-level EV subsidies.

I love that even the flagpoles at Dallas City Hall are Brutal.

Now that Jalopnik has been sold to Static, how much longer do you think they will be on the Kinja platform? When other former G/O media sites were sold, they were on Kinja for around 3-6 weeks after the sale.

“’I never thought leopards would eat MY face,’ sobs [man who supports] the Leopards Eating People’s Faces Party.”

If I were as shit at my job as these two (Trump/Elon) are.. I’d already be out of a job.

A good CEO has a hard job, they put in long hours trying to balance board and shareholders wants with employee needs and they have accountability with all parties, they are rare.

If you’re “running” that many companies all at once, AND stumping for Trump, AND rage-tweeting constantly, you are not a CEO, you are a weird dipshit and your job is not hard. If this moron can run this many companies at once, either he’s doing zero work and is not being held accountable OR being a CEO is VERY easy…

Musk is “a very busy man who cannot just materialize anywhere he wants to on 12 hours notice.”

Yup.  That’s how literally any person who isn’t insanely rich would be treated.  There’s no reason Musk should get different treatment.  

Judge ought to have issued a bench warrant on the spot.

It’s more than just the auto industry, though. Project 2025's environmental section is basically “let’s intentionally destroy as much nature as possible and purposefully make global warming worse.” Not even a “maximise shareholder value for a short while” kind of destruction, but “let’s commit environmental suicide”…

Th FTC should have sued Tesla years ago for false advertising for using the name “full self driving” for something that needs constant attention.

This. I got hit with three photos tickets in the same place over two weeks before I got a single letter in the mail. At least when a cop pulls you over, you know instantly what to watch out for 

If you think that’s bad, have a listen to a podcast called Cautionary Tales, specifically the episode called, ‘The City That Sold Itself To Wall Street’.

As someone who wrote RFP responses to state and local governments for speed cameras, red light and parking enforcement, and toll collection systems, I’m shocked the city is getting that much.
