Speculation of Tesla CEO’s possible departure comes as his influence in the administration appears to wane
Elon Musk is reportedly set to leave his government role because he’s tired of the what he sees as a litany of vicious and unethical attacks from the left, according to a report from The Washington Post.
It remains unclear when Musk will depart as head of DOGE; his special government employee status will expire at the end of next month. A person familiar with his thinking told The Post that Musk thinks that his work at DOGE won’t be diminished because of his departure, noting that staffers have already established themselves across a slew of federal agencies.
But speculation of Musk’s possible departure comes as his influence in the administration appears to wane. The New York Times reported last week that the acting commissioner of the IRS was being replaced after Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent complained that Musk had his preferred candidate installed without Bessent’s support. Musk has also annoyed other cabinet members by failing to coordinate with them in cost-cutting moves.
He is the richest man in the world. He has every resource available to him. He constantly punches down. He doesn’t deserve any sympathy.
Exactly, Muskrat expected to be able to shit on and ruin peoples lives and get ZERO push back.

I checked the modlog, they used the r slur in their otherwise on-point rant.
♫ I wouldn’t touch you with a - thirty-nine-and-a-half foot poooole! ♫
Reminds of the rant about the boss in Christmas Vacation. Do you need a Tylenol?
Okay, but how do you really feel?
Does he need help packing his shit?
Still hope your businesses all get destroyed.
Until Trump and friends give him inside trading advice, they will. (Allegedly)
We aren’t letting up. Musk is hated, like every Nazi.
Alternate title:
“Scumbag musk has got all the info he needs from all the government servers. Now he’s going to distance himself from everything then use that info as blackmail, or sell to Russia etc etc.”Primary goal was to neuter and disarm any agency that was actively investigating him, or had the authority to investigate him in the future.
The stolen data was just a happy little side dish he came into, that I’m sure isnt totally already in Russias hands. Just like how government credentials and login information didnt immediately end up in Russia’s hands after Musks sham of an agency got a hold of them (it totally did)
BYEEEEEE!
I can’t wait to check TSLA stock tomorrow morning
It’s up, despite them completely shitting the bed on earnings. We’ll see if it stays that way. Having traded stocks as a hobby, the market can be stupidly irrational sometimes. I believe it’s up because he said he was going to distance himself from doge a bit, and do more for Tesla. Imo the damage is done, and he has done irreparable harm to the brand. Working less days for Doge doesn’t change the fact that he founded Doge and pissed a lot of potential customers off in the process.
We should totally all agree that we will leave Musk alone and start treating him nicely if he leaves politics wink wink nudge nudge
What a pussy.
Call yourself Dark Maga. Cry and run when the heat gets hot.
Pussy.

Such a delicate little snowflake. I say fuck his feelings.
Well, he did say empathy was weak.
“The left is attacking me.”
I’m almost certain that he has been ordered by his board of directors to get back to work, or be removed as CEO of Tesla.
There is almost certainly a shareholder class-action suit brewing over his reckless and irresponsible behavior over the last several months, which has directly caused severe, and possibly irreparable, damage to the company’s brand image AND it’s sales around the world, as well as tanking the stock price, an unforgiveable sin in the investing world. Now that the bubble has popped, it will never inflate again. As future earnings reports are released, and sales continue to slide, the stock will continue to decline, and the cycle will continue until bankruptcy. And it is all traceable to Skum’s self-indulgent, egotistical behavior.
The only question is will Skum be the only defendant, or will the lawsuit also name the individual members of the board, for not reigning him in, or firing him. They don’t want to be sued alongside him, so they are forcing him to get back to work saving Tesla, thus letting them off the hook for legal liability.
Its doubtful Skum will be able to save Tesla at this point, its almost certainly too late. It is also probably too late to avoid a shareholder lawsuit. Investors have lost millions of dollars, not due to the vagaries of the market, but due to Skum’s outrageous behavior, which, as CEO, he should have realized would damage his company and its investors significantly.
And arguing that he didn’t recognize the danger in advance is no excuse at all for a CEO, who should have been able to predict the response to his self-indulgent ego bender.
Shareholders have lost many millions, and they won’t just let that go with an “Oh well.” He’s likely going to get sued, and the board is just making sure they don’t go down with him.
He wants out now before the consequences catch up with him.
Then he should have left politics at least 3 years ago
He did a Nazi salute at the presidential inauguration.
There’s no “being part of society” anymore. There’s no coming back for him at all. What a fucking moron
consequences
You’re funny.
You hear that guys? It’s working; keep it up.
[Gives Nazi salute.]
“Why are people attacking me? They must hate efficiency.”
Don’t forgot he’s been just incredibly big headed, disrespectful, and an insufferable jag off to pretty much every single person that doesn’t worship the ground he walks on. How someone can be that mean and rude to just about everyone, then call foul when people don’t like him and STILL have people confused why so many people act negatively towards him is so damn annoying.
