One way ticket to El Salvador for exposing Trump's garbage, criminal pick for Sec Def.

So, basically: "we demand Ukraine roll over(1) and we'll stop aggressions! (2)"
(1) this was always an option. Ukraine, the victim here, has every right to keep fighting Russian invaders in their land. What reason would this give them to change now?
(2) Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. Ya'll pinky swear or what?
He should be totally overjoyed, not bitter.
The current stock price, despite YTD of -36%, is still way over any kind of realistic valuation. And by that I mean orders of magnitude off.
Price to earnings makes it still look like a very, very, very hopeful/optimistic startup in the development phase, rather than a withering, fake luxury, niche automaker facing boycotts and being "run" by a full-blown Nazi that everyone hates.
If you still own Tesla shares, get the fuck out of it now. The recent collapse is nothing.
Remember, losing his job should only be the most minor thing he faces out of all of this.
He should face felonies for leaking classified information and for actively creating non-traceable government records. He should be spending time in solitary for this, based on other prosecutions.
Just like his boss.
The man is a thief, but there's nothing to steal here. He's lowering his totally bogus $ amount that he supposedly saved the government based on contract and lease cancellations.
Every single contract (~10) that I know very specific details about that was DOGE-cancelled has a problematic "savings" amount on the doge.gov website. Every one is wrong. That's just the 10 I know about where I have privileged information. There's currently more than 8000 listed. I suspect most of those have similar issues with the reported "savings" amount.
This is straight accounting that they are botching.
Nevermind that the $ savings is bogus even if the accounting was accurate. Because these cancellations are costing the US taxpayer big-time in the long run.
No way, this is protest worthy.
The plan allegedly has this going from VA to DC, so a bridge crossing and two jurisdictions are involved. Arlington, VA and DC. So that's the first protest. Make sure Arlington and DC know they cannot issue permits or support this in any way. Likely would involve crossing Memorial Bridge or 14th.
A complex route with a bridge crossing is a second. Would be a shame if something happened there to prevent movement...
Finally, twin 12v truck horns are $22 at Harbor Freight, a 100 pack of ear plugs for you and your neighbors are $15, and sealed 12v batteries can be had for about $100. If a 1,000 people are willing to pony up less than $150, it will shut this thing down completely. Would require water cannons or tear gas to restore it. Which might be even more difficult to deploy if Arl and DC cops aren't there to support it (see #1).
Where's the burial plot? Asking for a friend.
That's okay. Trump wants us buying US-made. A 2014 Equinox with 178,000 miles, no history of oil changes, yellowed headlights, permanent nicotine-stained interior, and missing fenders is basically the same thing as a 2025 Land Rover. The rich will adapt to these tarrifs.
Just ignore the fucking thing. It isn't a law. Don't pretend it is one. Don't try and interpret it. Just ignore it.
I assume it already did that. Which is (one of many reasons) why I don't have one.
The fuck it will.
Elon might go down with it (probably not), but one shitty, Nazi-led, small time automaker going from circling the drains to out of business won't hurt the US.
The US will be better off once all remaining Teslas are in history museums. Preferably in the section where kids on field trips can learn about Great Mistakes in American History.
