And leave Twitter and quit Starlink, too.

Stop buying Tesla. If you have one, sell it and buy a competitor. That's how you hurt Elon Musk. It's all about money. Other billionaires will take note.

It’s terrifying, honestly, when I realize how dependent we are on Amazon and how hard it is going to be to disconnect from it. But this is one piece of the effort — another better approach to E-books.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024.
You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right?
Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year.
You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.
