It might be time for Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s own fork in the road.
The electric carmaker is set to report quarterly earnings Tuesday afternoon that may say a lot about which direction Musk and the company he has ridden to immense wealth will go next.
The company will update investors on revenue, profit and other key figures after months of turmoil as Musk continues to dedicate a large portion of his time to the Trump administration’s attempt to radically remake the federal government, far away from his corporate responsibilities at Tesla, SpaceX and his other companies.
With Tesla’s stock and brand reputation getting pummeled — and with Trump’s tariff policy threatening to upend the automotive market, Tesla included — many Tesla investors have called on Musk to scale back or end his government work entirely and return his focus to business.
Tell that to Citizens United
What a group of bozos. But that’s not what I meant at all. I wouldn’t hold a grudge against an inanimate object, or an imaginary constuct, regardless of if some malicious law defined them as people.
You misspelled Bezos.
I do. I haven’t been to an Exxon gas station in 35 years, nor a BP in 15, and I’ve never used a gas station flying a confederate flag. Fuck those imaginary constructs and anyone who flies their banners.
So no VW, no Mercedes, no Toyota, no Ford, and so on. Confederate flag still actively stands for some real garbage, so it doesn’t count.
Yeah well actually that’s all true. Have never owned any of those and probably never will. I’m not sure who you’re counting in and so on, but unless it includes GM and Chrysler it has turned out that way mainly by happy coincidence.
I started with whichever I can at least loosely link to ww2 atrocities off the top of my head. GM destroyed a lot of public transit, but there’s probably better reasons that I just don’t know.
Yes, they wanted to sell busses, tires, petrol and everything else surrounding the products GM (and the co-conspirators) dealt in. So they bought up and dismantled functioning rail services and replaced them with bus lines. Greed was the reason at the expense of the American people. Again.
An American tale.
I mean no company is innocent and the grudges I chose to hold are completely arbitrary. However one point you made was that the confederate flag is presently still a symbol of racism and slavery. Exxon and BP both fought hard to limit the damages they had to pay. Many people died without ever receiving compensation because their pockets were so deep that they could just wait out the survivors.
The fact that they are still in business and they have never fully compensated victims for their own willful negligence means that they represent an ongoing miscarriage of justice.
But mostly the arbitrary thing.
