🧵 Kimbal Musk, PPPillionaire 🧵
Everyone knows that Kimbal Musk stole from the "Family Fund", his restaurants’ emergency tip jar. But did you also know that he was rolling in PPP cash - even as he stole from his employees? #Tesla #SpaceX $TSLA $TSLAQ 1/12

On 4/8/20, Kimbal got $4.93 M in PPP cash for The Kitchen Café, LLC, his restaurant in Boulder, CO. On 4/10/20, another entity (likely one of his) called Next Door, LLC, also HQ’d in Boulder, CO, got $358k in PPP cash. Kimbal’s charity, Big Green, got $783.5k on 4/9/20. 2/12

On 4/21/21, Kimbal scored another cool $2 M in PPP cash for The Kitchen Café. Next Door scooped up $501.5k on 1/23/21. Big Green got a nice $852.3k on 2/24/21. #TrickleDown #Tesla #SpaceX 3/12

Let’s now consider Kimbal Musk’s wife, Christiana (neé Wyly) Musk. Did you know that Christiana is the daughter of billionaire Sam Wyly, who, with his brother, were charged with commiting billions of dollars of tax fraud? 4/12

Turns out, Christiana Musk's the Chairwoman of the Unreasonable Institute, an “ESG” venture capital firm. The Unreasonable Institute's two entities got a total of $757k in PPP cash. 5/12

Blood runs thicker than water. Does grift as well? Consider Tosca Musk, Elon & Kimbal’s little sister. She runs a film outfit called Passionflix - like Netflix, but for softcore romance yarns. Tosca scored a comparatively modest $77k in taxpayer bailout cash. 6/12

“But Claire, the PPP funds helped save jobs!” True. BUT, couldn’t Kimbal and Christiana have pawned off Kimbal’s PRIVATE JET (N278PC) instead, and flown commercial like us peasants? Or was giving up his private jet too much of a sacrifice? 7/12

Side note: Kimbal also flew now-Sen. John Hickenlooper (ex-CO governor & US presidential candidate) on his jet, which caused an ethics stink (coughbribecough). @Hickenlooper officiated Kimbal’s wedding & pushed subsidies that went to #Tesla. 8/12

I digress. "But Claire, Kimbal works hard & deserves his private jet!" Fine. Did you know that Kimbal’s also scored $115.8 M from just selling $TSLA stock alone in the past 11 years? Yep. He’s well-compensated for “serving” on Tesla’s board. 9/12

So my question is, why didn’t Kimbal pawn off some of his own $TSLA stock (or #SpaceX stock for that matter) and bail out his own employees? Why didn’t Kimbal, or Elon, bail out their sister Tosca’s softcore porn production? 10/12

Why didn’t Christiana Musk dip into her own family’s overseas trusts & tax shelters to bail out her own ESG investment firm? 11/12

Why did the Musk family drain PPP funds, which now have run out, to the tune of > $10 M? How many real mom-and-pop shops – desperate lives & livelihoods – that aid could have saved! Instead, $10 M in PPP cash went to line the pockets of the Musk clan. #Grift $TSLA $TSLAQ 12/12
