"Let them drive Teslas" - some French Queen, shortly before losing her head, for some reason.

paultopping.bsky.social•22 hours ago

EVs are woke in Trump's mind because of his love for petroleum products. Except perhaps for Teslas of course ... for now.

"de-infrastructure" week!

isleinthestorm.bsky.social•2 hours ago

His version of "infrastructure week".

martinnagle.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Idiotic.

Don't worry, they'll be replaced with Tesla chargers once Musk secures the contract to replace every government vehicle with a Swasticar.

This is like Reagan taking solar panels off the white house.

You could make money by doing nothing, but you choose to invest time and money to stop receiving money. Childish.

Not woke infrastructure 🤦‍♂️

I thought I sent you my Peletron idea. Maybe someone is looking at it. After all the electric car, batteries and electric bicycles have been around for 120 years

Put GSA Emily in charge - it’ll take forever to enact

What a goddamn stupid waste

realkeithlarson.bsky.social•20 hours ago

How are they gonna charge the State Department's armored Teslas?

sweetllamamyth.bsky.social•18 hours ago

Oh, they were saying "Infrastructure WEAK"

fermispairofsocks.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Yeah it's not mission critical to fuel your fleet vehicles. 🤦

raflw.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Do they, umm, do they charge Teslas with those things? 😂

blueview1972.bsky.social•22 hours ago

The oil lobby is too much of a powerful donation source for Chump to ignore. They don't care about our planet, just their fucking profits

martyd409.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Doesn't Elon need chargers???

resisterhood8.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Now there will only be Tesla charging stations . Hmmmmmmm

miked5287.bsky.social•22 hours ago

You know whose chargers are shuttering tho? Tesla’s.

Fuck Elon. Fuck Tesla.

darthburkie.bsky.social•22 hours ago

He has to extort somebody before he does infrastructure

bigron52.bsky.social•13 hours ago

Gas guzzler friendly is his mantra. He will leave no subsidy untouched in the quest to turn the planet into a martian desert,

fseegers.bsky.social•21 hours ago

soon to be replaced by... and there it comes... Tesla chargers!!
so, first placing these chargers (=money)... now removing them (= money) ... and then putting new Tesla chargers (= MORE money). <--- DOGE!!!! there is your waste!!!!

markbeekeeper.bsky.social•21 hours ago

This can't be legal. There must be a way to stop this.

mbhastings.bsky.social•22 hours ago

This is precisely why I bought a hybrid rather than full electric. They are eliminating chargers for non-Teslas.

dennisdoubleday.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Reminiscent of Reagan taking the solar panels off the White House roof, but waaaaay worse and more wasteful. 45 years of GOP heading straight down to the basement and making sure the Federal government doesn't work, just to prove themselves correct.

showyourwork.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Ummmmm.... don't Tesla's need these????

someonenamedbrian.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Tesla in the US uses proprietary ports and has a separate private network of chargers

showyourwork.bsky.social•9 minutes ago

So, it helps Musk.... should have figured ...

chrisedelson.bsky.social•22 hours ago

I get the point, but trump is in favor of trump. everyone and everything else that he perceives as opposed to him can go to hell. He has the mentality of a toddler; manifestly unfit to hold any position of responsibility.

abacodog.bsky.social•21 hours ago

Problem: He has no clue what he’s doing each day and the new day has nothing to do with the previous day.

freedadhugs.bsky.social•22 hours ago

It was never "infrastructure week"
It was always "infrastructure weak"

iamlaniea.bsky.social•21 hours ago

Only Tesla chargers will be allowed. They’ll sit unused when everyone dumps Teslas

Roll coaling will be going from illegal to required feature

crampell.bsky.social•22 hours ago

To be clear: They are shutting down public EV chargers that are already built. Wonder if that benefits the guy who owns the largest private charging network

usmcwizard.bsky.social•21 hours ago

Uh, oh, Elmo going to be big mad.

feklar669.bsky.social•20 hours ago

Wait, wouldn't that be wasteful?

Whoaaa, the guy making the decision profits?
That's fraud!

And why is the worlds richest man making these decisions in the first place?! He gave lots of money to get him elected? That's an abuse of power.

These people embody waste, fraud and abuse.

djcri.bsky.social•22 hours ago

12% of Americans live under the poverty line, or 38 million people

Which is approximately $29,000 a year, or $79 dollars per day

$29,000 to these millionaires, can be either a name handbag, or a vintage bottle of whiskey

Let that sink in,
they are destroying us…because they can

You are right on. It certainly doesn’t benefit that rich guy.

maverickson.bsky.social•20 hours ago

You think? I mean, even remotely possible?

mikernfn.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Meh, they are doing this and shutting down wind turbine approvals and other things not because of Musk, or their "mission" or because Trump cares about birds (😂) but because they are trying to prop up demand for fossil fuels. That is what the fossil fuels industry requested.

wrongbottom.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Kinda conflicty.

sdiver100.bsky.social•21 hours ago

Gonna steally

jessistafford.bsky.social•22 hours ago

This is crazy. I was talking to some Uber drivers a few months ago who had rented Teslas but there are not enough charging stations for all the vehicles. One man from Brooklyn said he wakes up at 4am and goes to station in Queens to avoid lines.

kirisaki.bsky.social•21 hours ago

Imagine this but on Mars with life-critical systems.

Oh, we couldn't detox the perchlorate salts in the dirt in your house because we ran out of cleaning spray. Sorry you have to die after being poisoned by being here.

sharkwonk.bsky.social•13 hours ago

Well, he never did pass any infrastructure bills in his last administration, despite every week being infrastructure week.

comehereaminute.bsky.social•18 hours ago

Lol, the infrastructure week joke guy. Trump is opposed to anything that helps anyone other than himself. He will cut off his nose to spite his face.

thomaskcoyle.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Guess that it’s not infrastructure week yet.

kvedison.bsky.social•22 hours ago

How much money are they wasting by doing this? Taxpayers paid to build this infrastructure. And what about government owned EV’s? And all the new electric “duck” mail trucks? This is crazy.

elisecd.bsky.social•22 hours ago

This will help Elon too, with his Tesla charging stations.

brucealeksander.bsky.social•20 hours ago

I'm reminded of how President Carter had solar panels installed on the White House. Image how America might have led the transition to clean energy, if Reagan had not removed them when he took office. Trump doesn't just stop progress, his policies will put us behind everyone else for decades.

brucealeksander.bsky.social•20 hours ago

Nothing says you care about America more than the destruction of useful infrastructure.
