"Tesla reported paying ZERO federal income tax in 2025. Meanwhile, thanks to his new Tesla pay package, Elon Musk could stand to make $3 billion more per year than all 1.4 million elementary school teachers in the U.S. combined. See the problem here?"

When Trump took actions in the first few months of his term they would predictably lead to hundreds of thousands of deaths, there was very little attention. Americans should learn to also care about lives of people who live in other countries and are not necessarily white
08.02.2026 17:55 โ ๐ 4 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I know the Supreme Court has gone a long way to help Trump in a wide variety of ways, but would they really want to say that he can block funding of major public works projects in Blue cities unless they name airports and tunnels after him? Is that really the legacy they want?

The people of Minneapolis have modeled genuinely good citizenship for the whole country. The right claiming that they were paid, or that they're terrorists, is just so much desperate lying.

Not a single person I know wants to buy a car from a company headed by a guy who makes enthusiastic Nazi salutes on TV, and most of the Tesla owners I know have enormous buyer's remorse. The idea that the Board will give him a trillion dollars for ruining the brand is just nuts.
