      He’ll just claim he only just discovered it in the DOGE files.

        Which is also harder because… that’s admitting that dodge is sifting through classified data that they are very far from authorized to have.

          And it’d be breaking the law by revealing the info itself.

          He would have had to found out via some other means that didn’t involve access to classified information.

          Edit: what if he sues for Libel forcing Elon to show proof and the proof elon has is from classified info hah.

          Is it really classified or just sealed?

            Even if it is… would that negate the overall gist that clearly dodge is siphoning up stuff they aren’t supposed to have. If they are pulling up sealed crime records they aren’t supposed to have, could we even assume one of the dozens of offices they raided with classified information didn’t.

            Once they start proving they are getting shit they shouldn’t have, and were in the room with classified shit they shouldn’t have, those dots become hard not to connect.

      I mean allegedly Elon doesn’t like that bill, but we all know it’s bc they took out the EV tax credit, not because of the tax cut / impact to the budget. Though he claims its because of the latter.

    I see two possibilities:

    1. Musk finally realized that the main buyers for EVs are more left than right, and is now trying to rescue TSLA from collapse.

    2. He’s a drug-addled raging narcissist with poor impulse control and worse judgment who loves being in the headlines.

    It’s actually kind of hard to apply Occam’s Razor here.

    Edit: Another possibility is that Elmo learned that Trump’s people leaked (heheh) the ketamine bladder damage story to the NYT.

    I thought we already knew that?

    But either way, this is what we need: for the Right to balkanize and start publicly attacking each other. The Democrats are totally ineffectual at this sort of thing and the news will only report on it if the right wing does it anyway.

    Edit: I got my wires crossed, we havent seen the epstein files, but we do know he [most likely] raped a 13 year old girl at an Epstein-related function https://www.courthousenews.com/rape-allegations-refiled-against-trump/
