So when will they drink the Flavor Aid?

Next up, Trump rounds up migrants to rake up all the leaves in the forests.

What has Musk built?

His wealth comes from daddy’s emerald mine.

He started an online payments platform that didn’t do very well and ultimately merged with PayPal.

He bought his way into Tesla and forced the cofounders out.

He founded SpaceX and gave himself the title of Chief Scientist but all the real work is done by actual rocket scientists and not him.

He’s founded other companies like Starlink & Neuralink with his vast fortune but he largely stays out of their way.

He bought Twitter and has made a mess of it.

And so on…

His plan was to pressure them the way he’s used to pressuring people in his business dealings. The only problem is that countries like Ukraine aren’t just businesses that he can stiff, drag to court, etc.

Not that I’m a Tesla apologist, but keep in mind they are more than just a car company. Also in their portfolio:

• Solar panels
• Residential power storage (Powerwalls)
• Commercial/utility grade power storage (Megapacks)
• Vehicle insurance
• SuperCharger network
• Robotics

Granted, things like robotics are clearly mostly hype at this point, but they have sold & service Megapacks in countries including the US, Canada, and Australia. Their Supercharger network is also seen as a valuable asset given it’s really the only highly reliable nationwide one. Add to that the fact that it’s now an open standard that other EV companies are adopting, and non-Tesla EVs can now charge at many Supercharger stations, and the value of that asset can’t be understated.

I have no idea what the Tesla EV revenue is compared to all this other stuff, but it’s all likely helping boost the value one way or another…

I hope every last union member walks off the job if this happens.

So when will the 3 day special operation begin?

Exactly why I used to subscribe to the Washington Post until Bezos wiped his ass with it. I’ll have to look into subscribing to The Atlantic now.

GPS does not track anything. There is no possible way it can.

GPS satellites transmit time coded signals. That’s all they do. They don’t receive any signals from the devices that use them.

GPS receivers (which include everything from car navigation systems to smartphones to dedicated GPS receivers, etc) only listen for those time coded signals, decode them, and use that information to triangulate your location. That’s all that GPS itself can do.

Smartphones, tablets, etc. can determine their location by GPS if they have GPS receivers built into them. They can then take that location data and forward it on to companies like Google, Apple, etc. But that is done over either a cellular or WiFi connection.

Any claim of GPS based counting of crowd sizes should be taken with a huge grain of salt. The only way counts based on mobile phones could really be done is by asking companies like Google or Apple how many of their devices are being tracked in the area, or by asking mobile providers like Verizon or AT&T how many mobile phones are connecting to their cell towers in the area.

The total number of people/ devices identified by GPS in a given area is exactly 0. Because GPS by itself is simply incapable of doing anything like that on it’s own.

GPS itself isn’t the issue. Devices like smartphones are GPS receivers only, meaning they can only receive GPS signals. It’s what those devices do with GPS that’s the actual problem.

The thing is, smartphones can be tracked by multiple methods. You can locate them via cell tower triangulation. And to a lesser extent even WiFi tracking, Bluetooth tracking, etc. So if you really don’t want to be tracked then turn your devices completely off. Or better yet leave them home.

Not to worry. Once all those pesky regulations from entities like the EPA, FTC, FAA, etc. are all wiped out the corporations will see huge profits unlike anything they’ve ever seen before.

Let him sell and lose majority control. That would be one small step towards improving the Tesla brand/image. But knowing his ego he’ll never willingly do something like that.

My neighbors regularly lose chickens to coyotes…

Every American should file for a refund of all the SS taxes they paid when they do their income taxes next year. With the gutting of the IRS on top of SS, they’ll probably accept those claims without question and accept those refunds.

Same. I’m definitely one-and-done with my Tesla, but I should be able to get another good 5+ years out of it before I get rid of it.

In another day or two Elon and his minions will likely be able to halt all money going yo USAID, including salaries to workers. So that will effectively abolish it.

Well only for the blue states. Certainly not Florida.

1. Trump disbands FEMA
2. A category 5 hurricane clobbers Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, etc.
3. The states receive no federal aid.
4. …

Those videos were all deepfake antifa false flags produced by the deep state in collusion with the radical left!
