I don't know why the media is reporting "breaking news" that Elon Musk is taking a step back from DOGE in May because of his Tesla sales tanking.

Elon is classified as a "special government employee" who can only work for 130 days in a year...

He's time limited to May by law.

luwop.bsky.social•66 days ago

He is going to DOGE Tesla again. People at Tesla will be thrilled

ronin357.bsky.social•66 days ago

So this implies he will be back on Jan 2026 to wreak more havoc?

peabeesc.bsky.social•66 days ago

And speaking of special..you all catch this "specialness" down in my neck of the woods??

He and the boys have already wrecked our government, so it’s a moot point. #TeslaTakedown is just an instrument of well-deserved revenge.

That irks me! They jeep saying it like it’s his choice because the left hurt his feelings.(and bank accounts!)

acciostickthing.bsky.social•66 days ago

It's because everyone figured he and Donald would just give the law the finger like always and keep going.

So that he's actually going to step down like he should have to is (very sadly) unexpected.

geekmom3.bsky.social•66 days ago

well, sure -- that's true... the bit about the "special government employee" status -- but if they don't respect the constitution or due process or civil rights or the Supreme Court -- why would they care about the letter of the law for this?

witchhilda.bsky.social•66 days ago

Exactly

itsnotbread.bsky.social•66 days ago

The media has been calling him a genius for years. A genius at what? What has he ever done except write checks and bullshit dumb investors? He sounds and acts like a dumb 9 year old.

slowlearner123.bsky.social•65 days ago

Why do you believe that the 130 day rule would be the one rule Trump would follow?

artfuldodgernw.bsky.social•66 days ago

He’s already said he would have to remain active for the rest of Trump’s term. He’s just blowing smoke.

mistressscience.bsky.social•66 days ago

130 days? That's more than our current POTUS "works."

plutobro.bsky.social•66 days ago

kysemma.bsky.social•66 days ago

He’s been really quite in the last couple of weeks. He might be hoping people will forget about him and start buying Tesla’s again. Damage is done, there’s no going back.

leodwyer.bsky.social•66 days ago

If Trump wanted to keep elonia in place, he would just ignore the 130 day rule. Surely.
Just like all the other rules.

barb1158.bsky.social•66 days ago

Go now.
Will the doge-ettes go, also?
Let’s make sure they do!!

seabeevfl.bsky.social•66 days ago

Yeah,but I find it hard to believe that all of a sudden Mango Mussolini respects the rule of law.

mverv.bsky.social•66 days ago

Rules have not applied at any point in this administration so I doubt that 130 day mark makes one inkling of difference.

devilspickles.bsky.social•66 days ago

He was there long enough to cause chaos, and cover his ass by shutting down agencies that were investigating his businesses. Musk is a mother fucking prick.

artcandee.bsky.social•66 days ago

Plus, Leon and Trump have both repeatedly said that he'll be leaving in May.

Doesn't really have anything to do with Tesla, but his employee classification.

That being said, it'll be nice that he's going back to destroying his car company instead of the country.

Bye, Leon!

sushisans.bsky.social•66 days ago

Please, they don't follow laws. 🤨 He's leaving due to those Tesla numbers. It's a Hail Mary - but it won't save the company.

wavesofgray.bsky.social•66 days ago

Time (e.g. 130 days) doesn't seem to work the same for GOP as it does for the rest of us, as Congress decided the whole year would be just one day. But in any timeline, he can't leave soon enough.

doaasaleh.bsky.social•66 days ago

Help me and my family survive 😭💔 Please share this link https://www.gofundme.com/f/hope-for-d...

mgb-1.bsky.social•66 days ago

Leon really needs to up those meds.

paulfox.bsky.social•66 days ago

I don’t understand why he isn’t in jail for the crimes he’s already committed against this country. Why isn’t the ICE insanity being applied to him?! I’m sure I know the answer already but it’s infuriating to see the double standards.

forthedefense.bsky.social•66 days ago

His damage has been done. And his little DOGETTTES will still be around.

gordonvincent.bsky.social•66 days ago

You actually think he'll stop driving the government into the ground in May.

That's adorable.

bringon2026.bsky.social•66 days ago

He will multitask. All while impregnating several more women.

westvillagecrank.bsky.social•66 days ago

But he has left his non-biological children, his cruel minions, in place. And they are doing his bidding, and going nowhere.

bernardleclair.bsky.social•66 days ago

Yes, he's only going back into the shadows. He's got all the access he needed he will remotely continue the massacre.

timarie13.bsky.social•66 days ago

He and Vlad will have what they wanted by that time.

judithkh1951.bsky.social•66 days ago

His car company will never recover and that's a good thing.

teemayson.bsky.social•66 days ago

And since it's 130 days *per year*, he could be back again

nickybshaw.bsky.social•66 days ago

Wait 'til he builds self driving rockets...

amiemcwayne.bsky.social•66 days ago

Musk will still be at MAL. Nothing will change

colette73.bsky.social•66 days ago

He's probably got all the information that he needed to send to Moscow anyway. And deleted all the information he wanted gone.

lisac1.bsky.social•66 days ago

Why has his board not ousted him? Fear?

jrattiganma.bsky.social•66 days ago

Great, with the exception he stole every Americans data.

billwsmithjr.bsky.social•66 days ago

Call him by his oriper name, Lone Skum.

mightycol.bsky.social•66 days ago

Special Government Agents can make Special Government Profits and Deals for just 130 days? When do I get to be a special government agent?

superiormaga.bsky.social•66 days ago

keep burning teslas to the ground.

gordonvincent.bsky.social•66 days ago

For fElon to obey any law IS breaking news.

bryvegbry.bsky.social•66 days ago

He can take a step back right off the grand fucking canyon.

azeke57.bsky.social•66 days ago

And you know he will say he's leaving but he won't leave. He likes being President.

mickthecanuck.bsky.social•66 days ago

Nazi man is being rejected globally.
Mars may be his only safe haven.
When the whole world wants him gone, it's just a matter of time. Hell, he's stoned most of the time.
Not that he matters because the only good Nazi is one that doesn't breathe.

terrifiedstill2024.bsky.social•66 days ago

leon is special all right. A special kind of stupid

bstinky.bsky.social•66 days ago

Poor Elon, he is losing
Millions, and I think he is figuring out that nobody likes him.
Trying to say the demonstrators were
Paid.
No, we just hate you.
You're just a druggy,
Who's not quite right in the head.

henrischuyers17.bsky.social•66 days ago

Exactly what don’t they understand

skysmom.bsky.social•66 days ago

I just read this:

jedirachel.bsky.social•66 days ago

I hate his stupid pout. I hate Donald’s stupid pout. Ahhhhhhhhhhhh! I hate these people

jetblackbox.bsky.social•66 days ago

Musk will just claim he's no longer pulling the strings at DOGE when, in fact, he still will be. No way he's walking away from undermining oversight of his comapnies, and destroying govt. processes so that he can get paid to replace them. Oligarch #1 locked in.

notlookinganymore.bsky.social•66 days ago

He’s very special. He bought his own demise. Too bad

johnny-so.bsky.social•66 days ago

Tesla should still be burned to the ground, by boycotting Elon`s ass into oblivion.
We will not forget what you did you NAZI saluting drug addict!
We will not forget.

melindalove.bsky.social•66 days ago

To Elon: Take a seat, bro.

iamjniles.bsky.social•66 days ago

.... in a Tesla.

melindalove.bsky.social•66 days ago

thetoyotajackson.bsky.social•66 days ago

Sth sth about having to account for and pay taxes over the income after 3 months on the job I read somewhere else. Writer expecting Musk to withdraw from it over this.

mistyj.bsky.social•66 days ago

Trying to martyr himself, so his "bros" will be energized to make noise about how great he is and the "freeloaders" are lashing out at him.
