    Elon Musk took to his X account to deliver a dire warning over Joe Biden’s border crisis he says is “crushing the country.” In his Feb. 27 post, Musk warned that “Dams are bursting all over the country.” “America is only 4% of Earth’s population. If only 1% of the rest of Earth moves here, that would crush all essential services,” he said about the flood of illegals breaching out borders. “I am ringing the alarm bell, because the flood of illegals is crushing the country!” Musk concluded. Dams are bursting all over the country. America is only 4% of...
  • 1 Unfavorable Trend Explains the 21% Plunge in Tesla Stock in 2024

    The Motley Fool ^ | Feb 24, 2024 | Anthony Di Pizio
    Key Points: Tesla stock is down 21% in 2024 so far, and it's down 52% from its all-time high. Growth in Tesla's electric vehicle deliveries is decelerating. Tesla has a plan to reignite growth, but there are no short-term fixes for this problem. The electric vehicle giant isn't growing like it used to. Tesla (TSLA 1.81%) was the world's largest electric vehicle (EV) company by sales until the fourth quarter of last year when China-based BYD outsold it for the first time. Tesla once had the EV market almost entirely to itself, but now, it's grappling with a tsunami of...

    Twitter/X ^ | 2/26/2024 | Elon Musk
    Dems won’t deport, because every illegal is a highly likely vote at some point. That simple incentive explains what seems to be insane behavior. It has become so brazen that a gang of illegals can beat up police officers on camera in Times Square, get out of jail for free and *still* not get deported! Instead, a partly federally funded NGO bought them free tickets to California …

Now it seems the tech entrepreneur is about to take on Google's Gmail by creating an email service of his own. In an exchange on his social media platform X, Musk has revealed that a product called 'XMail' is 'coming'. He's offered no more details about the service, so it's unclear when it may be available, although it's expected to be integrated within the X app. MailOnline has...

  • How Elon Musk's SpaceX was boosted in Indonesia by a Chinese rocket failure

    AsiaOne ^ | FEBRUARY 19, 2024
    When a Chinese rocket malfunctioned shortly after launch in April 2020, destroying Indonesia's US$220 million (S$296 million) Nusantara-2 satellite, it was a blow to the archipelago's efforts to strengthen its communication networks. But it presented an opportunity for one man. Elon Musk — the owner of SpaceX, the world's most successful rocket launcher — seized on the failure to prevail over state-owned China Great Wall Industry Corp (CGWIC) as Jakarta's company of choice for putting satellites into space. The Chinese contractor had courted Indonesia — Southeast Asia's largest economy and a key space growth market — with cheap financing, promises...

    Tesla CEO Elon Musk criticized hormonal birth control and was met with stories from women about their personal experiences on the pill. "Hormonal birth control makes you fat, doubles risk of depression & triples risk of suicide. This is the clear scientific consensus, but very few people seem to know it," Musk wrote Friday on X, formerly Twitter, citing a 2017 news article from Time about studies on hormonal birth control. The Time article discussed how an American Journal of Psychiatry study indicated women who take hormonal contraceptives have a three times higher risk of suicide than those who never...
  • Elon Musk Picks Apart The Trump Civil Case Verdict With One Simple Question

    02/17/2024 2:57:41 PM PST · by NoLibZone · 41 replies
    X and SpaceX owner Elon Musk dismissed the verdict in Trump’s civil fraud case by simply asking who the supposed victim was if all of the loans granted to Trump were paid back with interest. In a rather unsurprising move, the former was found liable in New York Attorney General Letitia James’ civil suit brought against Trump and his companies. Trump was ordered to “pay back” more than $350 million after the years-long case brought forward by an attorney general who campaigned on “getting Trump” came to a close. Musk responded with a simple question in an X post. “Given...

    In other news - the fight between Elon Musk and Disney CEO Bob Iger has added another chapter. The CEO of X is now looking for people who want to sue Disney for discrimination, even offering to help pay for their legal fees. Musk's call to arms comes on the same day that actress Gina Carano filed a lawsuit against Disney and Lucasfilm, accusing them of wrongfully terminating her from her role in “The Mandalorian.” Musk is also helping to pay for her case. The new addition to the feud comes on the heels of Disney’s first-quarter earnings report, in...

    Billionaire X/Twitter owner Elon Musk claimed on Friday that President Joe Biden is trying to “get as many illegals in the country as possible” so he can create a “one-party state.” Reacting to an AP report which said Biden would “prioritize legal status for millions of immigrants,” Musk wrote: Biden’s strategy is very simple: 1. Get as many illegals in the country as possible. 2. Legalize them to create a permanent majority – a one-party state. That is why they are encouraging so much illegal immigration. Simple, yet effective. He added, “Here is the full text of the bill. It...

    Business Insider ^ | Today | Tom Carter
    A decade ago, Elon Musk laughed off the threat posed by Chinese electric carmaker BYD. He's not laughing now. The Tesla CEO warned investors in a recent earnings call that Chinese EV firms will "demolish" their Western rivals if trade barriers aren't put in place to limit their expansion, after BYD finally overtook Tesla as the world's top seller of electric cars. "The Chinese car companies are the most competitive car companies in the world," Musk told investors during Tesla's Q4 earnings call. "If there are no trade barriers established, they will pretty much demolish most other car companies in...

    The world’s richest man had a bad day in court this week. A judge in Delaware ruled that Elon Musk is ineligible to receive a compensation package from Tesla worth an estimated $55 billion. This is a case that has dragged out for five years and the merits of the arguments coming from both sides seem rather vague. The suit was originally brought by a group of shareholders who claim that Musk unfairly crafted his own compensation package resulting in “unjust enrichment” for the billionaire at the expense of the other shareholders. The judge apparently agreed, but Musk’s attorneys argue...

    A Delaware judge tossed out Elon Musk's record-breaking $56 billion Tesla (TSLA.O), opens new tab pay package on Tuesday, calling the compensation granted by the EV maker's board "an unfathomable sum" that was unfair to shareholders. Shares of Tesla dropped about 3% in extended trade, and some investors seized on the ruling in hopes it might prompt Tesla to overhaul its governance. The Tesla board has been criticized as failing to provide oversight of its combative, headline-making CEO, who has fought regulators and led several other companies at the same time. The ruling, which can be appealed, nullifies the largest...

In a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, Musk reported that the patient is recovering well, and the initial results of the Neuralink brain implant procedure are promising. Neuralink's brain implant is designed to assist individuals with traumatic injuries in operating computers using their thoughts. In May, the company announced FDA approval for its first human trials. Last year, Neuralink began recruiting patients with quadriplegia due to cervical spinal cord injury or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) for the trial. On X, Musk...
