When police arrived to a Las Vegas Tesla repair center, they found five vehicles set on fire or damaged, and the word “resist” spray painted on the front of the business.
Elon Musk took to the social media platform he owns Monday night to vent about his alleged mistreatment.
“My companies make great products that people love and I’ve never physically hurt anyone,” Musk posted. “So why the hate and violence against me?”
Take a lesson Canada, be proactive, lean in. Ban Tesla is new exciting ways.
"HUGE red flag moment here by DOGE.
US Institute of Peace is a 501c3 - an independent non-profit entity, not a govt agency.
If DOGE can do this to USIP, what's to stop them from breaking into offices of other NGOs that receive US funds?"

"Happening now at the USIP: "DOGE has broken into our building," acc to USIP Acting President & CEO George Moose."

Story about how protests outside Tesla dealerships have been happening organically around the US
"... I didn't see anything happening (here) and thought I'd show up and maybe take a picture of myself... then there were a dozen people there... and a dozen more..."

I wrote both my senators about this and also my congress rep.
I encourage every US citizen to do the same.
I'm under no illusion that writing letters or making calls is the solution. And I'm not sure how much it will help. But we have to make our voices heard somehow and I'm unable to go to any protests in person.
This MAGA woman is running for Congress in Texas District 31. The #TrumpMusk regime & especially, Border Czar Homan, likely support Valentina Gomez, & the photo she's shared, which clearly indicates her death wish for undocumented immigrants.
I apologize for posting this disturbing photo from X (VG: 408K X followers), but I believe Americans need to understand the threat that Republican leaders pose.
The president on Friday while speaking at the Department of Justice suggested the actions of the press should be deemed illegal and subject to investigation.
“These networks and these newspapers are really no different than a highly paid political operative,” Trump continued, claiming that CNN and MSNBC are corrupt.
“And it has to stop, it has to be illegal, it’s influencing judges and it’s really changing law, and it just cannot be legal,” he added.

“Stranding all or part of rural America with worse internet so that we can make the world’s richest man even richer is yet another in a long line of betrayals by Washington,” wrote Evan Feinman
The least shocking thing I realized today: I find it very angering, depressing and unsettling that people are being disappeared by the US federal government on a regular basis now.
Like, I knew I’d be angry when such things were promised by Budget Bashar and the Technocrat Tyrant during the campaign, but feeling the bone deep rage as it happens is a whole other experience.

No automotive stock has dropped in value faster than Musk’s Tesla, as Americans band together in grassroots fashion to “takedown Tesla”, and it’s working.
Or as a recent NY Times columnist put it, “we are all trapped in a burning Tesla” because of Musk and his economic policies, but how do we get out.
Michael Popok opens the door and explains why the Tesla Takedown matters to our democracy.

"The regime won't merely use [government databases] for nefarious purposes. Musk's wrecking crew will be able to change what's inside those databases – and I believe it's a certainty that at some point they will.
Are you old enough to be collecting Social Security payments or Medicare? Musk's incels could decide that you don't deserve any of that, and delete you from the system. That's what people with access to "everything, including source code," can do. When people working in good faith are replaced by people who exemplify bad faith, expect the worst."

The Trump administration has called on the Pentagon to provide military options to ensure the country has full access to the Panama canal.
The military is drawing up options, according to NBC News, that range from a closer partnership with the Panamanian military to soldiers seizing the Panama Canal by force, according to unnamed officials. The use of force depends on how much Panama’s military is willing to work with the US, the officials told NBC News.
