Apparently now they’re even exploding when parked in front of run down hotels.

Thanks, you made me look more into that event.

I was not sure if it really happened in front of a Trump hotel.


Firework mortars and camp fuel canisters were found stuffed into the back of the Tesla Cybertruck that exploded outside President-elect Donald Trump’s Las Vegas hotel early Wednesday, killing a suspect inside the vehicle and sparking an intense investigation into possible terrorism.

Las Vegas Metropolitan Police and Clark County Fire Department officials said that a person died inside the futuristic-looking pickup truck and seven people nearby suffered minor injuries.

Police Department Sheriff Kevin McMahill said authorities know who rented the truck with the Turo app in Colorado, but are not releasing the name until investigators determine if it is the same person who died.^[[1] https://apnews.com/article/trump-hotel-vehicle-fire-las-vegas-ad4c171c7a6af64f08db93d9fdc2d749]

Elon Musk effectively bought the US presidency, or at least a very favorable position where he can openly make decisions for the president.

It happened in the daylight, shit, spotlight even and nobody did anything to stop him.

Oh, that is not new; it is the status quo.

The United States is controlled by the oligarchy.

We have legalized bribes; it just gets called lobbying.

The duopoly is ruled by the owner class, who also have a huge say in what policy is pushed and what is passed into law.

Bill Gates and other billionaires do have a direct line to all politicians, but you are right; Elon's actions are much more in the open, especially with his online persona and presence in full display, similar to Trump, where he blurts out the quiet part out loud for the masses to hear.
