Sort of good news, but lefty Dems calling for giving love to Elon is pretty disgusting. Ro Khanna, who I think has a non-union Tesla plant in his district, is leading this outreach, calling it a "villain to ally arch". It's a huge mistake to make him more of an icon. He needs to take his misogynistic Nazi billionaire ass back to....where? South Africa doesn't want him!
I think the Tesla Takedown is the most effective resistance we've mounted so far, and I hate to see it watered down or abandoned. Musk knows zero about democracy as it is implemented in the US. He just sees opportunities for his own grift. I write proposals for federal grants. Musk has so many violations of standard requirements of federal funding, starting with political contributions and ending with drug-free workplaces! Clearly he was getting away with this during Democratic as well as Republican administrations as he used our tax money to build Tesla and SpaceX. He must be taken down. I'll be out there at the Tesla showroom for the foreseeable future and I hope I am not alone.
thank you, Rachel. course with Elon as erratic and unstable as his new enemy + a trashbag full of drugs, he might not just wreck the Republicans in 2026—he could wreck both parties. he's not coming back to the Democrats, and like the president, Elon's jones is always at bottom a drive toward chaos.

I agree. And we need to keep up the pressure on Tesla. I suspect that is partly what this is
about.

I love it. this cluster of fascist fucks couldn't find their asses with both hands on a clear day with a two hour advance notice.
Thank you Rachel!!!
