Well didn't you hear in the interview? He said it out loud that he cares a lot. 0:33:

"I'm criticized constantly, I could care less."

See? Dude clearly cares. He could care a lot less!!

Absolutely.    Would you like other guys pointing out Hotez deficiencies?   It was actually more about Hotez but whatever? Why stick around? All the constructive back and forth

The SEC officials investigating Elon Musk over his handling of the Twitter takeover seem to be growing more and more impatient with his legal antics. The two sides have been locked in a dispute over Musk’s refusal to testify in the investigation.Now, in a new filing, the SEC accuses Musk of trying to “misrepresent” the regulator’s investigation. “Musk continues to distort the true scope of this investigation – his only hope for establishing that the SEC is not seeking relevant evidence,” the SEC writes in a court document.

The SEC has been investigating Musk since 2022 over his delayed disclosure of his stake in Twitter, which was then a publicly-traded company. The regulator sued Musk last year in an effort to force him to testify in the investigation. The SEC said at the time it was investigating “among other things, potential violations of various provisions of the federal securities laws in connection with” his purchase of Twitter stock and “SEC filings relating to Twitter.” A federal judge ordered Musk to comply with the subpoena and schedule an interview last month.

 

<and then there's more of elmo protecting the extreme>

Reading comprehension - how does it work? That's NOT what the paragraph says at all.

And did Elon just reveal one of his fetishes?

It's a weird thing with right wing internet weirdos to just completely misstate and misrepresent the people they disagree with, always followed by knocking that straw man down and beating on their chest about it. I mean sure we see it here on Surly all the time, but it's just wild seeing one of the richest and most powerful men in the world doing it. 

And then not even 24 hours after posting this outright misinformation and lies, he's doing test flights of the most powerful rocket ever built.

It's fucking crazy that elmo is so fucking crazy.

It really is just a standard MO, isn't it?  Practicing logical fallacies is functionally a sacred act for them.

These are weak people, with weak ideas.....which appeals greatly to weak people with weak reasoning skills. So...it works.

The usefulness of online discourse is almost gone. Only took, what, 25 years? Social media is crashing and burning at a much faster rate. I'd guess the majority of high volume users and engagers have some form of mental illness, which will just get worse the more they are online.  People's behavior online rarely transfers to real life, but what else do people have to go on at this point? We are encouraging people to work from home and generally staying inside and away from others most of the time. Genuine relationships are dying. I'm sure the people not addicted to the internet are much happier and healthier. 

As a society, we're cooked. I'd love to hear how things better, because I haven't thought of it yet.

The Don Lemon firing definitely points out how thin skinned Elon is. He obviously saw Lemon as a potential to reach out to new audiences. Actually a good idea to pay well known, left commentators to produce shows for X. 

Elon must have wanted to be the first interview but then fires Lemon hours after being interviewed. If you don't want a true independent interview that might have tough questions, don't agree to an interview.

First 35 minutes of Pivot - Galloway/Swisher - is an interview with Don Lemon. Good stuff. Some highlights:

  • There is a debate on what is owed Don Lemon, Elmo has made it out that there wasn't any special deal, but Lemon has pointed out that he had one AND if there wasn't a deal, why is Elmo saying "Contract Terminated" to his agent?
  • Add to that, Don pointed out that there wasn't a deal unless he went to CES to be a front man and face of deal - so Elmo was advertising hard on this
  • Elmo is his own walking Streisand effect. Like they point out, he does this interview and let's it go - is't not even news today. But in his 2-year-old-like reaction blows this out of proportion and keeps it alive for much much longer. 

Listen to it if you want

Tesla is the worst performing stock in the S&P 500. Analysts say it has further to fall

But a new report by Wells Fargo analyst Colin Langan on Wednesday offers a darker picture than previously imagined.

Tesla, he wrote, is a “growth company with no growth.”

Elon Musk’s Tesla once represented the future of automaking. Now the company’s own future is in question.

The once red-hot electric vehicle maker — heralded as part of the so-called Magnificent Seven behemoth tech stocks — is currently the worst performer in the S&P 500 this year, down nearly 32% since January.

The story of Tesla’s (TSLA) decline has been well documented. The company has been plagued by safety issues and recalls, slowing growth and has even been forced to slash prices. But a new report by Wells Fargo analyst Colin Langan on Wednesday offers a darker picture than previously imagined.

Tesla, he wrote, is a “growth company with no growth.”

Langan predicts that Tesla’s growth will remain flat this year and then decline in 2025 as competition increases, deliveries disappoint and the beleaguered auto and tech company is forced to cut prices again.

UBS also downgraded its forecast for Tesla on Wednesday. Analysts said concerns are mounting as demand for electric vehicles slows and as Chinese rivals take an ever greater share of the global market.

With the exception of Tesla, all of the Magnificent Seven companies (that also includes Apple, Amazon, Meta, Google, Nvidia and Microsoft) saw double- or triple-digit earnings growth in the final three months of 2023. Tesla reported a 40% decline in profit from the year before.

Tesla has been navigating through a perfect storm. The EV environment is getting more crowded right as the company’s fundamentals have come into question. Its share price has dropped about 60% from its 2021 all-time high of $407.

But even with the recent drop in price, Tesla’s stock is still very expensive when compared to its actual earnings and profits, said Langan. The company’s former propensity for rapid growth is no longer certain, he said, and shares likely have further to fall.

Wells Fargo has lowered its price target for the stock from $200 to $125, predicting another 25% decrease in value. UBS, meanwhile, has lowered its price target to a more moderate $165 from $225.

Well if censoring a whole shit load of people to protect a fucking nazi isn’t free speech absolution, I don’t know what is. 

Elon is all in for two things: protecting nazis, and free speech.  Except, ummm, disregard that second thing.  Really, he's just all about all the nazi shit.

It wasn't that Musk didn't like the questions being asked in the interview. Musk had never met Don Lemon and was unfamiliar with Lemon until he sat for the interview.

This is what it looked like when the producer brought Lemon into the room to meet with Musk.
