People who follow Tesla closely probably know about the high profile crashes involving Tesla owners Josh Brown and Walter Huang. You should also know about Johna Story, the pedestrian fatally struck in Arizona in 2023. She was 71. www.bloomberg.com/features/202...

Tesla Sales Tank in Another Country as Musk Backlash Spirals www.thedailybeast.com/tesla-sales-...

247wallst.com/cars-and-dri... Tesla sales are falling apart and corrupt Jonas of Morgan Stanley is pumping Tesla stock with fairy tales of FSD and now Tesla airplanes. Jonas belongs in jail! $tsla $tslaq

Tesla Takedown in Boston.

This is a harrowing deep-dive on the “shortcomings” of Tesla’s autonomous driving technology — and the fatal accident that has prompted a federal investigation. @bloomberg.com $TSLA www.bloomberg.com/features/202...

“.. A high-profile deal with Airbus would allow Xi to send a message to Trump over trade. French President Emmanuel Macron and Chancellor Friedrich Merz of Germany are among leaders that may visit Beijing in July to mark 50 years of diplomatic relations ..” www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

NYT: “.. European nations are increasingly optimistic that they can support Ukraine financially and militarily against Russia even if President Trump decides to wash his hands of the conflict ..” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/06/04/w...

Mike Johnson says Musk is ghosting him: "I called Elon last night and he didn't answer ... I hope he calls me back today."

This is pretty devastating. Lutnick admits that tariffs were never about reciprocity, eliminating foreign trade barriers, or negotiating better deals. They just don't like international trade. Period. He even says about imports: "we don't want other people making them."

#DOGE ended up being, quite literally, a drop in the bucket. 🤡 @cnn.com

LARRY FINK: “.. the ground in Europe is shifting. There’s growing momentum to remove the barriers holding capital back: faster permitting, less red tape on AI .. and most critically, a new mindset on investment inclusion." $BLK

CANADA’S FORD: “.. Everything is on the table right now. We had an agreement .. and unfortunately they broke a verbal agreement.” 🇨🇦 @politico.com www.politico.com/news/2025/06...

Pretty clear from this readout of call with Putin, that Trump sees Russia as an ally on Iran and not an adversary in Ukraine. Any hope he might have turned and agree to impose new sanctions on Russia is all but gone.

“.. These guys are idiots,” Black responds. “Pete Hegseth does not seem like a smart man ..I would love to introduce him to some LGBTQ folks who are warriors who have had to be warriors our entire life just to live our lives openly as who we are.” @thr.com www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...

Looks like we got that tariff front-loading out of the way on auto sales, says Pantheon. “.. With a 25% tariff on new foreign autos and many auto parts now in effect, [the] wave now is unwinding, suggesting sales will soon drop below their 2024 average ..”

PANTHEON, on construction spending: “.. Year-over-year growth turned negative for the first time since 2019, slowing sharply from the near-10% rate at the start of 2024. .. We see the overall construction sector shedding 5-to-10K jobs per month on average between May and the end of this year.”

Guess we’re going with the Trump-Musk “civil war” @thedailybeast.bsky.social www.thedailybeast.com/touchpaper-l...

If you had an elderly parent babbling about money like Trump does, you would take away their credit cards and checkbook, but Congress lets Trump blow up the US & global economy with tariffs and social media posts.

🛢️📉 The value of Russia’s crude shipments fell again in the four weeks to June 1, - Bloomberg Flows averaged 3.24 million barrels a day in the four weeks to June 1, tanker-tracking data compiled by Bloomberg show. That was down by 170,000 barrels a day from the period to May 25.

Musk’s decision to trash Trump’s legacy legislation came after failing to win favorable treatment in 4 instances: ✅EV tax credit for Tesla ✅Extended White House employment status ✅Starlink at FAA ✅an ally leading NASA None of it happened. www.axios.com/2025/06/03/e...

We know what Canada has, and we’re going to build on it.

(Reuters) - Staff of the Federal Emergency Management Agency were left baffled on Monday after the head of the U.S. disaster agency said during a briefing that he had not been aware the country has a hurricane season, according to four sources .. @reuters.com www.reuters.com/world/us/fem...

The Trump regime has declared that if you criticize Israel or point out they should not mass murder women and children, your visa will be denied. You can however criticize the US and any of its allies, just not Israel.

Elon Musk's drug abuse impossible to hide

Musk's officially blamed his black eye on his 5 year old son, claiming he told him to punch him as a game. However, on closer inspection you can see other bruising and scratches.

Elon Musk is responsible for at least 300,000 deaths, a number that's steadily increasing, it doesn't include Ukrainian civilians murdered as a result of his attempt to protect the Russian navy when he disabled Starlink to sabotage a Ukrainian defence operation.
