It probably eliminates all liability from Tesla. Car continues into a wall: driver’s fault. If car hits brakes to avoid crashing into a false positive and cause pile up behind them: Tesla’s fault. So, auto pilot turns off and hands it over last second to driver. No liability for Tesla

This is why Trump wanted absolute loyalty over anything else. These lawyers know this, but were terrified at the idea of offending or going against Dear Leader, so they came up with the most transparent, childish excuse possible.

It’s why I’ve gotten back into video games recently. It’s my best way to ignore everything else and immerse myself in a different world

I would just copy/paste my job description and schedule emails for as far out as I possibly could

Cancel Visa credit cards, if possible. I’m cancelling 2 of mine: apnews.com/article/elon...

I have 2 Visa credit cards that I’m cancelling on the 28th. Why? Because Visa does business with fascists: apnews.com/article/elon...

These pieces of 💩 are some of the most unreliable things I’ve ever used and they haven’t improved at all since they started selling them

I’ll bet some people just went thru their job description and basically copy/pasted the first 5 items listed and somehow they’ll still be targeted/fired

So when people get cuts to their SS, is Trump/Musk just going to accuse the people getting cuts as being the people who were receiving the payments of the “150+ year olds?” Will ALL people get cuts? Of course, none of the justifications for anything they’ll do will make any sense, but 🤷‍♂️

Honestly, probably very easy for them to filter the “spam” by simply filtering out the non-.gov emails. But, still worth a try 🤷‍♂️

I’m gonna take a wild guess and say getting fired for “not responding to an email” is definitely illegal.

Make sure you’re carrying some snips around if you live in Boston and want to “help” with the ICE vehicles’ tire pressure

I’ve already changed my name on social media accounts and put everything I can think of under the highest privacy settings. Lock. Your. Shit. Down.

From an NBC News article: “In a letter to New York Gov. Kathy Hochul, U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said the federal government has jurisdiction over highways leading to Manhattan and that these additional tolls posed an unfair burden in motorists outside the city.”

He’s put his ignorance on full display for sure, but is it possible that he actually knows what he’s saying is a lie and instead he’s laying the groundwork for cutting off social security payments till “investigations are complete.” I really wouldn’t be surprised at this point.

Exactly. They’ll continue to break and destroy everything they can, then raise taxes and take benefits away from the working class. And give the obscenely wealthy a tax break. And the average sub-$1000 net worth MAGA will cheer.

All federal workers need to be racing to download copies of their work performances/reviews AND printing physical copies if you haven’t already!

AOC? Lmao, wasn’t it just news recently that she “only” has a net worth of like $500k? But hey… just throw a bunch of 💩 at the wall and see what sticks, I guess?

Mace is the type of person where I would just run in the opposite direction and just never stop running if she approached me. Wouldn’t touch that with a 10,000 ft pole

I’m sure Musk has a long term plan that essentially forces people into using it

“Rivian is now selling electric vans to anyone who has a commercial fleet” I’m pretty sure that’s not just “anyone”
