If you attack the Capitol to overturn election results and to overthrow democracy on behalf of a criminal, you’re a hero.

BREAKING: Senate just UNANIMOUSLY restored $1.1 billion for DC local govt that was eliminated
Why?
Because Senators of BOTH parties work in DC - and most have homes there - and none of them want to be in a hellhole
Now - try applying that same logic to THE REST OF THE COUNTRY

Over years, I have a few times called Musk a liar (across the country by 2016, then 2017) and thief (money for upgrades), on national TV even. Maybe that’s why my Twitter account has been blocked for a few months despite violating no rules. I can’t get it fixed.

What’s Driving Tesla’s Woes?
As Tesla faces a global sales slump, and with shares down for the seventh consecutive week, could Elon Musk's antics really be to blame?

Musk did a Nazi salute and then weeks later endorsed a Nazi apologist far right party in the German election. He teamed up with Trump to antagonize Ukraine. So yeah, it’s no wonder Tesla sales are declining in Europe while EV sales in general are up.
New data out this week shows a sharp decline in Tesla sales in Europe. The company is facing multiple headwinds — including consumer pushback to CEO Elon Musk's political pivot to the right.
