Is Elon Musk really this much of a liar?

Maybe he has a life insurance policy to collect on, these Christo-fascists only see dollar signs when they look at other human beings. It's probable that it extends to their own children

Heart goes out to the citizens/future victims in Austin where Tesla will be testing their new "Cybercabs" arstechnica.com/cars/2025/02... If it's sooooo safe, Musk should be in the backseat zooming around DC for better publicity since he doesn't care about the law anyway.

The draft of a 1st-of-its-kind study of nature across the US was weeks from completion when President Trump issued an EO that ended it. The project leader called it “too important to die.” The experts who worked on the Natl Nature Assessment are figuring out how to publish it outside the govt.

This is actually insane and against the very founding principles of the IDEA of the US. We are supposed to be "a land without kings" but Republicans want to call the judiciary, killing democracy to create a monarchy. Their actions (and lack thereof) are the definition of Seditious Conspiracy.

Ida Wells was born enslaved but refused to live in fear. She wielded the power of the press to expose America’s greatest terror—lynching. When the truth made her a target, she didn’t back down. She co-founded the NAACP, fought for Black women’s voting rights, and left a legacy of resistance!
