Lmao “call your congressman” from a billionaire. In 2020 Elon was able to get the governor of the largest, richest state to drop COVID restrictions for his factory. Now he’s tweeting as if he were a #Resistance poster.
Does he think that calling your congressman works?
I mean it works for him. It would be pretty funny if he thought things just worked like that for everyone.
“the beautiful people bubble” from 30 Rock but it’s just that people want your money
Depends on who’s doing the calling
It works on occasion for certain issues if people do it en masse. Just not a path to systemic change
Become your congressman
oh ok very cool mr musk
why don’t u hire somebody to call my congressperson or whatever, money bags? I’ll call mine for a million bucks.
Imagine hooking what’s left of your pathetic little curated echo-chamber to an (admittedly mostly unhinged) actual movement big enough to win multiple elections, repeatedly eat shit as a result, and still have a cult of personality, and then backing off to be like ‘call your congressman’.
Spectacularly pathetic.
libs are gonna start liking musk again. “it was just a arm gesture. i know before i was saying it was a nazi salute but i can admit when im wrong”
Kill Bill
$275 million can get you a lot of buyer’s remorse
We all do things in the heat of passion Jimbo
EXTREMELY critical support. pretty sure there’s a hemp ban that was just injected into that bill
Incorrect, that’s the Fiscal Year 2026 Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies Bill.
Unrelated bill, but one that’s considered must-pass. Stock the fuck up now.
been stocking up for a long time now.
my recommendations (tested for almost 2 years now): mason jars, a humidity pack, and one of those $20 mason jar vacuum sealers (run to 40-50 seconds). place in a box or other dark spot in a temp stable location.
flavor, strength, color, etc is perfectly preserved

What bill?
The One Big Beautiful Bill.
Too bad this is probably gonna end with a compromise position where the federal government agrees to replace the entire government vehicle fleet with Teslas, purchased at msrp, to avoid hurting such a great amerikkkan manufacturer
what’s his problem with it?
It would phase out EV credits. Totally destroying Tesla.
“Under the bill passed by the House, the consumer tax credit for new electric vehicles (worth up to $7,500) would phase out after 2026. But for most vehicles, it would actually become unavailable at the end of 2025, because it would only be available for vehicles made by automakers that have sold fewer than 200,000 EVs. (That’s a return to how the tax credit was structured before the Biden administration.)”
commendations to President Trump for making China great again and getting these death traps off of American roads.
Did they add this specifically to fuck with him? Is this retaliation for something that happened behind the scenes?
I mean Trump has been pretty pro gas, anti-EV for a while, well before and all during their little dastardly duo phase.
It would phase out EV credits. Totally destroying Tesla
There’s no way this is the rationale given he’s decided to do countless other, far dumber shit such as ally himself with a base that doesn’t buy his cars
He’s apparently also upset with the fact that Trump didn’t appoint the NASA administrator he likes, and signed a deal with OpenAI rather than xAI
WTF I love the bill now!?

What does he personally stand to lose from it?
I hope trump reveals the real reason Elon has a black eye in retaliation
Several billion dollars, from what I remember from the TrueAnon series on Tesla, the tax credits on EVs is basically the only thing keeping Tesla alive, they barely make a profit from selling cars, of which they make very few anyway. They do get tax credits which can then be sold which is worth a lot more. They can sell tax credits for cars “sold” but haven’t delivered (pre-orders, essentially). The kicker is, even if the car is recalled or refunded, the tax credits they sold off for building an electric vehicle doesn’t. They can build shitty and still make money.
The majority of Tesla’s stock price is tied to the US government giving them free money for theoretical cars. Now it’s so big, pension funds buy into Tesla
It was pretty stupid of him to so enthusiastically back the anti-environment party from the get go then.
The biggest problem him before was taxes and the threat of Chinese EVs that perform better and cost half as much flooding the US market
The biggest problem for him now is the low taxes people trying to axe taxpayer funded subsidies for his dipshitmobiles and thinking EVs are woke.
The biggest threat to him in reality is mixing quaaludes and amphetamines to replace sleep so he can yell at Twitter engineers to make Grok talk about Rhodesia and Afrikaners at 3:30 AM
What a great system. o7
great system
It’s actually kinda wild how more people haven’t paused to ask “hey how come this “”“car company””" that makes fewer than 2 million cars per year is worth more than the next 3 car companies combined, who together make almost 30 million cars a year?"
Check out this fucking guy. Is he just coming down off of the ketamine?
Dog shit instincts truly
Trump is gonna wreck him

Can’t get billions in taxpayer money if the government is broke, I guess
