Can't believe he would do this without being elected to congress first
This was not a good comment to read directly after sipping coffee
I still can't believe that Menendez had a stash in his closet of not just cash but gold bars too. That's a scene from a Coen Brothers movie called "Congress".
I don't think he's guilty, insider trading requires having material, nonpublic knowledge of a company's workings, so to be guilty, Elon Musk would have to have knowledge.

I really, really hate this guy. Just the worst kind of "I'm the smartest boy in the room" shit coming from a completely mid intellect that's been gassed up as the ueberboer his entire life. Load bearing toxic copes as central pillars of his identity. Viciously hateful takes and barely coded white supremacy nonsense. There's a lot there to despise, but I gotta tell you that unless it leads to his actual downfall, and it won't, how can anyone care about an accusation of something that's been obvious to anybody paying attention?
This guy made a car to spec on an apple 2 edutainment program and made it real. He's the worst.
Oddly enough I think Elon deserves to win this one since only a brainwashed moron thought it had a fair valuation and selling was the obvious play.
He'll never wriggle out of this jam!
Assuming 
isn't literally braindead he would have scheduled this sale well in advance to avoid any insider trading accusations.
So there's only a 70% chance he's guilty.
:shocked-pikachu:
I sure hope this wealthy white man faces consequences!
ah well nevertheless
I have to admit that I was an idiot when I saw the title. I thought at first the DOJ might be doing something. What have I been smoking? I haven't even been smoking.
A Tesla investor is accusing...
Of course.
Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:
To learn about and discuss meaningful news, analysis and perspectives from around the world, with a focus on news outside the Anglosphere and beyond what is normally seen in corporate media (e.g. anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, Marxist, Indigenous, LGBTQ, people of colour).
To encourage community members to contribute commentary and for others to thoughtfully engage with this material.
To support healthy and good faith discussion as comrades, sharpening our analytical skills and helping one another better understand geopolitics.
We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.
Newcomm and Newsmega Rules:
The Hexbear Code of Conduct and Terms of Service apply here.
Link titles: Please use informative link titles. Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.
Content warnings: Posts on the newscomm and top-level replies on the newsmega should use content warnings appropriately. Please be thoughtful about wording and triggers when describing awful things in post titles.
Fake news: No fake news posts ever, including April 1st. Deliberate fake news posting is a bannable offense. If you mistakenly post fake news the mod team may ask you to delete/modify the post or we may delete it ourselves.
Link sources: All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include the Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance) or at least strip out identifier information from the twitter link. There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source.
Archive sites: We highly encourage use of non-paywalled archive sites (i.e. archive.is, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org) so that links are widely accessible to the community and so that reactionary sources don’t derive data/ad revenue from Hexbear users. If you see a link without an archive link, please archive it yourself and add it to the thread, ask the OP to fix it, or report to mods. Including text of articles in threads is welcome.
Low effort material: Avoid memes/jokes/shitposts in newscomm posts and top-level replies to the newsmega. This kind of content is OK in post replies and in newsmega sub-threads. We encourage the community to balance their contribution of low effort material with effort posts, links to real news/analysis, and meaningful engagement with material posted in the community.
American politics: Discussion and effort posts on the (potential) material impacts of American electoral politics is welcome, but the never-ending circus of American Politics© Brought to You by Mountain Dew™ is not welcome. This refers to polling, pundit reactions, electoral horse races, rumors of who might run, etc.
Electoralism: Please try to avoid struggle sessions about the value of voting/taking part in the electoral system in the West. c/electoralism is right over there.
AI Slop: Don't post AI generated content. Posts about AI race/chip wars/data centers are fine.
