I forgot all about him. Very true. At least Hughes, in spite of his political missteps, had a pretty cool life.

That would be awesome. Stage a little super elite tech bro meeting and take care of all of them.

I didn’t watch Mountainhead till the end, or really pay attention to the rest of it, but something like that.

Or we just fire him off to Mars and see what happens?

Unfortunately, the only person that could fire him off to Mars is Elon himself.

Elon Musk knew, long before he so strongly Endorsed me for President, that I was strongly against the EV Mandate. It is ridiculous, and was always a major part of my campaign. Electric cars are fine, but not everyone should be forced to own one. Elon may get more subsidy than any human being in history, by far, and without subsidies, Elon would probably have to close up shop and head back home to South Africa. No more Rocket launches, Satellites, or Electric Car Production, and our Country would save a FORTUNE. Perhaps we should have DOGE take a good, hard, look at this? BIG MONEY TO BE SAVED!!!

@realDonaldTrump
If the US kicks him out there would be many countries begging for him to set up shop there.

I don't think he cares at this point. He was allowed access to every database the US has. His small investment to get trump elected has gotten him everything he could have wanted, and more. The info he holds is worth more than any asset he currently has.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk has fired Omead Afshar, the automaker’s vice president of manufacturing and operations, CNBC confirmed.
Afshar reported directly to Musk and led a team of more than a half dozen high-level employees, according to internal organizational charts viewed by CNBC.

Musk sets his own company on fire and then blames this guy
Shouldn't you fire the head of sales and marketing, and not the head of manufacturing and operations?

Pantless Tesla driver altercation on BC Ferries latest in 'negative interactions,' union says

https://apple.news/Ar6vkQBrQTIeD0WUk1bYceQ

Quote:
the man in the Tesla was confrontational and abusive.

The man gets back in the Tesla and that’s when RCMP officers can be seen removing him and putting him in handcuffs.

The man appears to only be wearing a shirt, socks and either underwear or short shorts.

Seeing more and more Wankpanzers around Calgary these days. Who are you people? Show yourself you cowards.

GM sells terrific all-electric trucks if you really need an electric truck.

Have you seen the cost of living in BC?? Pants are expensive!

Some people have to choose between having a Tesla or Pants, most cant afford both!

Saw one of those Cybertrucks in Penticton today, loud orange. I could only imagine the person driving that thing.

Musk or no Musk, those are the ugliest vehicles I've ever seen in my life.

The paint jobs people are doing are awful. At least stick with the SS finish.

They always seem to have a weird matte finish. Like painting a frying pan.

I can't help but burst out laughing everytime I see one.

They're wrapped which just accentuates the stupidness.
