And Musk knew this and gave him a quarter billion smackers to become president.

[-] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 36 points 1 month ago

He'll just claim he only just discovered it in the DOGE files.

[-] TheFogan@programming.dev 6 points 1 month ago

Which is also harder because... that's admitting that dodge is sifting through classified data that they are very far from authorized to have.

[-] Theprogressivist@lemmy.world 65 points 1 month ago

So you're admitting that you support(ed) a pedo?

[-] Eldritch@lemmy.world 27 points 1 month ago

Well at least in elon's case the s*** didn't fall far from the horse's ass. His father was a grooming pedophile as well.

[-] PalmTreeIsBestTree@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

An incest pedo at that

[-] SmackemWittadic@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

You can say "shit" on this website, buddy. It's okay to use creative language

[-] Eldritch@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I often do. However the google a speech to text itself is shit and automatically censors all that, and i've yet to find a way to disable it. So one will always slip through now and again without getting fixed.

[-] Akasazh@feddit.nl 8 points 1 month ago

He brought his young child to the office of a guy he knows is a pedo.

[-] OutlierBlue@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 month ago

That wasn't a young child. That was his meat shield.

[-] Akasazh@feddit.nl 1 points 1 month ago

Learned from the Bibi..best!

[-] KneeTitts@lemmy.world 41 points 1 month ago

duh.. they were like best friends for 15 years when they lived right beside each other in Miami, he met his bloody child wife Melanomia through Maxwell at an Epstein party ffs.

First of all: zero surprise.

Second of all:

I see two possibilities:

  1. Musk finally realized that the main buyers for EVs are more left than right, and is now trying to rescue TSLA from collapse.

  2. He’s a drug-addled raging narcissist with poor impulse control and worse judgment who loves being in the headlines.

It’s actually kind of hard to apply Occam’s Razor here.

Edit: Another possibility is that Elmo learned that Trump’s people leaked (heheh) the ketamine bladder damage story to the NYT.

[-] Almacca@aussie.zone 15 points 1 month ago

There's no reason both can't be true.

[-] iltoroargento@lemmy.sdf.org 11 points 1 month ago

Yeah, I mean, 2 is for sure true, but 1 may or may not be in the mix at this point.

[-] Almacca@aussie.zone 6 points 1 month ago

I think 1 would be more accurately phrased that the shareholders have told him that in no uncertain terms.

[-] iltoroargento@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 1 month ago

Yeah, I'm sure that has happened at some point.

[-] jonne@infosec.pub 5 points 1 month ago

He's not coming back from the Nazi salute thing. I guess in the US there's limited options for electric cars, but in Europe and Australia BYD is eating Tesla's lunch.

[-] iltoroargento@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 month ago

I agree. I mean it's a pretty consistent 90 degree nosedive for him and has been for a while lol

Love to see it.

[-] MeekerThanBeaker@lemmy.world 21 points 1 month ago
[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 17 points 1 month ago

What was his next big reveal? That he's not 6' 3" and weighs more than 215 lbs?

[-] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 17 points 1 month ago

Somehow I don't think the people who voted for a felon rapist traitor conman are going to care if he fucked some kids.

[-] Jolly_Platypus@lemmy.world 16 points 1 month ago

...and in other news...

DUH.

[-] ALoafOfBread@lemmy.ml 15 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I thought we already knew that?

But either way, this is what we need: for the Right to balkanize and start publicly attacking each other. The Democrats are totally ineffectual at this sort of thing and the news will only report on it if the right wing does it anyway.

Edit: I got my wires crossed, we havent seen the epstein files, but we do know he [most likely] raped a 13 year old girl at an Epstein-related function https://www.courthousenews.com/rape-allegations-refiled-against-trump/

[-] Chainweasel@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

I thought the Musk-Trump feud was political theatre but this sounds like it has actual venom in the words.
Maybe the honeymoon is really over

[-] Bieren@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

This is about as news breaking as Elons drug use. We all know. Bring some fucking proof.

But really, this all probably just more stock manipulation. Tank that Tesla stock before these two have some wild makeup sex.

[-] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Hm. Well, before Musk said this, I 110% believed for certain that Trump was in the Epstein files. Now that he's the one who's saying it, I'm...not so sure.

[-] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

/s, but seriously, this guy lies a lot.

[-] sunbrrnslapper@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

These guys deserve each other.

[-] bender223@lemmy.today 5 points 1 month ago

oh, I thought musk would be in the epstein file too. I thought it was mutually assure destruction. 🤔

[-] Jax@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 month ago

I don't like that Musk is the one 'revealing' this news. It seems like MAGAs opinion has soured enough that he could easily be considered just another part of the 'woke media empire'.

I hope I'm wrong, but this seems like it could be used to fuel misinformation quite easily.

[-] Almacca@aussie.zone 5 points 1 month ago

Musk needs to fuck off forever.

[-] SoftestSapphic@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Someone ran out of Ecstasy

[-] Gsus4@mander.xyz 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

https://youtu.be/xvOhgtSiza4?t=192 same drama queens, but some have too much power.

[-] Melatonin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago

What i hate about this is Elon working to unseat Trump means the biggest loser is outspokenly on my side. Elon's touch is instant death.

[-] IcePee@lemmy.beru.co 1 points 1 month ago

What a petty diva Musk is. FFS, every jab Musk tries to land on Trump circles 'round to him. As he, himself stated he got Trump elected despite credible accusations that Trump palled around with and knew about Epstein's PDFilia.

[-] Jinarched@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

This feels like a very very bad game of mafia/werewolf.

[-] Seasm0ke@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago
[-] WizardofFrobozz@lemmy.ca -1 points 1 month ago

But they're both Drake.
