There’s no butt plug big enough for this orange asshole. Sorry to be this blunt but he’s doing our advisories work for them and making money off it. This shall not stand. He will be jailed.
Why of course not only since Biden implemented it but because Elon must be given all the government contracts so he can charge us as much as he wishes! And now Elon has the information on all his competitors & control of the treasury that pays it!
He has no authority to stop spending appropriated by Congress. This is what his first impeachment involved. Tell Susan Collins he hasn’t learned his lesson.
The Biden administration has funded only 37 electric vehicle charging stations, with 226 charging ports available across those stations. Additionally, there are 24,800 projects underway to expand charging infrastructure across the country.
To be clear, Elon’s Tesla network is different. This was to expand the public network of DC fast chargers, largely the CCS type that is different than Tesla.
“These chargers would have competed with Elon Musk’s Tesla chargers for dominance in the EV charger market.” Really important second sentence for your readers to understand what’s going on here, don’t you think?
Will any Republicans in Congress acknowledge that we have an unwell, malignant narcissist in the Oval Office, and if they don’t assert any check or balance against him soon, then there will be no check or balance later?
