Elon Musk Might Not Be Able to Salvage Tesla’s Value After All

Tesla’s value is crashing, despite #ElonMusk & #DonaldTrump ’s best efforts.

"Elon Musk’s rightward turn has led to a downward spiral for #Tesla...

“Tesla is becoming a #political symbol of #Trump & #DOGE, & that is a bad thing for the brand”...

Trump said... acts of #violence against Teslas would be considered #DomesticTerrorism, cementing the automaker’s status as a state symbol"

"Where do Elon Musk’s #business interests end & Donald Trump’s #political interests begin? Trick question—they’re one & the same.

How else do you explain the jarring sight of the #POTUS hawking #Teslas on the #WhiteHouse South Lawn?"

Editorial cartoon. The White House is decked out like a used car lot having a sale. There are flailing arm balloon people with "Own the libs" and "Own a Tesla" on them. There are signs saying, "Free Tesla! When you buy a $5,000,000 test drive with the president" and "Free access! To the president when you buy a $5,000,000 Tesla. There are two red Teslas on the front lawn with Trump sitting in one of them and poking his head out the window. The license plate on the Trump car says, "USA 4 Sale". The other car's plate reads, "POTUS 47". On top of the Capitol, the Tesla flag flies above the US flag, and Elon Musk is jumping up and down.

The Fascist Tech Bro Takeover Is Here
https://www.theindex.media/the-fascist-tech-bro-takeover-is-here-2/

"Musk's $277 million campaign contribution secured him unprecedented access to the levers of #Government & cemented his grip on the #political machine... Musk's influence has infected every arm of Govt. And he is using his #wealth, his control of Twitter's husk, & his presence in the #Trump orbit to steer the country away from #democratic principles & toward oligarchic rule."

Headline, photo, and text from article: Headline: The Fascist Tech Bro Takeover Is Here The future of America isn’t being written in Washington—it’s being coded, traded, and hoarded by tech billionaires who see democracy as a bug, not a feature. by Joan Westenberg 10 Mar 2025 Photo: Some white male techbro's face Text: The future of the United States is no longer decided in Washington. That ship has sailed. It's now dictated in the bunkers, private jets, and compounds of an ideological Silicon Valley, by billionaires and wealth extremists intent on treating democracy as a nuisance that must be swatted away. These men - raised on a rabid press that mythologized their existence in their lifetimes, called them Wunderkind and treated them as something above and beyond mere mortality - have consumed a steady diet of libertarian and authoritarian fan fiction and conceived a new order, designed to elevate their lofty egos at any and all cost.

This Is Going Even Worse Than Steven Levitsky Expected
https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/how-trump-brought-competitive-authoritarianism-to-america.html

"We’re pretty screwed...

The second thing I didn’t anticipate was the role of #Musk... frightening. We don’t know what he’s going to do with #data. And frankly, at least in democracies, I’ve never seen a concentration of #political, #economic, & #media power as vast as this.

[interviewer]And in an unelected official.

[Levitsky]]In an unelected official, right"

#ElonMusk #Doge #Coup #USPol #Politics #News #USA
Text from article(edited for length): Many of the warnings in your essay have already turned into reality... Have things accelerated more quickly than you were anticipating when you wrote it? In other words, how screwed are we right now?  We’re pretty screwed. A couple of things are a little worse than I anticipated... Republicans... have been even weaker than I thought... Congress is basically shutting itself down in the wake of the executive branch usurping its power... The second thing I didn’t anticipate was the role of Musk... That article drew on 20 years of research on competitive authoritarian regimes elsewhere in the world. The kinds of stuff we predicted, a lot of which has come to pass, are strategies that have been carried out in literally dozens of other cases. But Musk is pretty new. This is something that I don’t really have a model to understand. There’s a sort of technological frontier element to this that’s a little frightening. We don’t know what he’s going to do with data. And frankly, at least in democracies, I’ve never seen a concentration of political, economic, and media power as vast as this. And in an unelected official. In an unelected official, right. With the exception of really old-fashioned dictatorships like Somoza and Trujillo, or Mobutu in Zaire — the concentration of political, economic, and media power here is just stunning. That’s just never been seen in a democracy to my knowledge. So that’s really new territory.

"Pew said roughly 20% of #Americans regularly get news fr influencers — podcasters, commentators, etc — & abt ⅔ said it helps them better understand things(?!😱).. X is where most of e #political influencers lived. #Pew found tt 79% of e political posts were on tt site"

This 22-minute short film was made by the US Army just after the Second World War, warning about the tactics that Nazis use to gain power.

It's baffling how many parallels there are with current political developments. I think this video should be shown in every school around the world.

Suddenly some #Norwegian #grunder is standing at a #political #party victory ceremony doing the #romansalute - i.e the nazi salute.

But it's okay, because a 100 years of #liberalization and #NewPublicManagement has lead to the defunding of #PublicEducation - making people politically and historically ignorant.

Some old codger says "I remember my great-great grandad was tortured and killed by the Nazis for owning a jazz record", and a young guy says "stop being a #libtard, grandad."

As it stands now we pay more than any other country on earth for our healthcare but get worse results than countries that pay a fraction of what we do. We can get better results with less money - but that means that rich people would get less rich.

Trump's DOJ secretly obtained phone and text message logs of 43 congressional staffers and 2 members of Congress

The Trump-era investigations into leaks of classified information were far broader than previously known, according to a report by the DOJ's internal watchdog.

Ronald Reagan’s real legacy, charted and graphed. Spoiler: It’s not the bedtime story we’ve been told.

A visual breakdown of the inequality, debt, and mass incarceration still shaping our lives.

'Trickle-down' economics was never real.

A collage of seven charts critiquing socioeconomic trends tied to Ronald Reagan’s presidency, each marked with his face & arrows highlighting the 1980s: 1. A chart shows rising income inequality from 1947 to 2017, with disparities widening in the early 1980s. 2. A graph compares healthcare spending to life expectancy, with the U.S. diverging in 1985 due to high costs & limited gains. 3. A chart shows the top marginal tax rate dropping sharply during Reagan’s presidency. 4. A graph tracks federal debt as a percentage of GDP, which begins rising steeply in the 1980s. 5. A chart highlights growing U.S. debt in the 1980s, both in 2014 dollars & as a percentage of GDP. 6. A chart compares tuition, income, & minimum wage growth in Illinois since 1970, with tuition surging in the early 1980s. 7. Two graphs on incarceration show prison populations rising sharply after Reagan’s 1980s "War on Drugs." Charts reveal long-term impacts of Reagan-era policies on inequality, debt, & incarceration.

I was a #professor at the #University of #Leipzig for 10 years in the 1990s and 2000s. No #regrets about having left, because canceling today a #lecture by #BennyMorris means capitulating to the #dictates of #activists against #AcademicFreedom -- no matter what one may think of his #publications .The #faculty bluntly admits that they have bowed to #political #pressure :"Various groups have asked us to cancel the #lecture ."

According to a new report by the #Israeli newspaper #Haaretz, the number of Israelis #relocating to #Canada has increased considerably during the Israeli aggression on both #Gaza and #Lebanon.

Almost 10,000 #settlers moved from Israeli #OccupiedTerritories to Canada this year, as per the report. The newspaper reported that 7,850 Israelis filed for and were given work visas in Canada in 2024, representing a fivefold increase compared to the previous year.

For context, 1,585 Israelis were granted #WorkVisas in Canada in 2023.

The report revealed that the key reasons for the #migration were "Israel's" precarious #political and security position, heightened conflict, perceived #socioeconomic inequities, and the Israeli occupation's unwillingness to address crucial concerns.

According to the most recent data from the #Canadian Ministry of #Immigration, 3,425 temporary work visas and 4,424 regular work licenses were awarded to Israelis between December 2023 and September 2024.

Over six years after the #GrenfellTowerfire the remediation of faulty & dangerous #building materials remains desperately slow, with building contractors dragging their feet, and Govt. slow to act.

However, when compared with the #HorizonIT & #infectedblood scandals, it reinforces the picture of UK #political #inequality;

when normal people are effected the socio-legal systems of sanction & restitution are slow to move & usually incomplete!

Powerlessness is fatal!
