(THREAD) It’s important that everyone RETWEET this thread. As some of you know, Elon Musk has been on a deranged tear trying to destroy one of the most reliable news sources in the world, REUTERS. The recent reports in this thread are the ones Musk doesn’t want *anyone* to share. Image
1/ REUTERS: Musk’s Neuralink Has Faced Issues With Its Tiny Wires For Years reuters.com/technology/mus…
2/ REUTERS: The Inside Story of Elon Musk’s Mass Firings of Tesla Supercharger Staff reuters.com/business/autos…
3/ Again, all the stories I’m posting in this thread have *just* come out and are absolutely *devastating* for Musk.

He’s trying to destroy REUTERS because the news service has had the audacity to report on his malfeasance.

Don’t let him get away with this. RETWEET this thread.
4/ REUTERS: Elon Musk Ordered to Testify Again in U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Probe of Twitter Takeover reuters.com/legal/us-feder…
5/ REUTERS: Musk’s SpaceX Is Quick to Build in Texas, Slow to Pay Its Bills reuters.com/technology/spa…
6/ REUTERS is publishing so many devastating reports on Musk in quick succession that it’s reasonable to wonder whether a whistleblower inside Musk’s operation is involved. Certainly, Musk has recruited a troll army here at Twitter to try to discredit REUTERS’ accurate reporting.
7/ REUTERS: The Musk Industrial Complex reuters.com/investigates/s…
8/ REUTERS: In Tesla Autopilot Probe, American Prosecutors Focus on Securities Fraud and Wire Fraud reuters.com/business/autos…
9/ It seems clear from these recent REUTERS reports that REUTERS believes—as I do, and as I think Americans broadly writ increasingly do—that Elon Musk is one of the most dishonest men alive, and quite possibly one of the most dangerous to the continuation of our civilization.
10/ REUTERS: Tesla Scraps Low-Cost Car Plans Amid Fierce Chinese EV Competition reuters.com/business/autos…
11/ REUTERS: Musk’s SpaceX Is Building Spy Satellite Network reuters.com/technology/spa…
12/ I’ve been researching Musk in contemplation of a book on the man for over a year—and will soon publish at PROOF a report on his adoption of an extremely dangerous, deranged bundle of ideas known as TESCREALism.

Very few people understand how far off the deep end Musk is now.
13/ REUTERS: Tesla Tries Legal ‘Band-Aid’ to Revive Musk’s Huge Pay Deal reuters.com/legal/tesla-tr…
14/ REUTERS: Wall Street Wants Answers From Elon Musk on Tesla’s Model 2 Car reuters.com/business/autos…
15/ How the hell does a single news service, REUTERS, get *so many* damning exclusives about Elon Musk over just a several-week period? I’ve no idea. I suspect Musk has no idea, either. Which is why he’s desperately trying to napalm one of the most reliable news sources on Earth.
16/ REUTERS: Elon Musk’s Tesla Overhaul Hits the Very ‘Executive Bench’ He Once Touted reuters.com/business/autos…
17/ REUTERS: Tesla Threatened to Fire Law Firm in Bid to Block a Critic of Elon Musk’s Compensation Package reuters.com/legal/transact…
18/ Many Twitter users have been saying that they would like to see Maggie Haberman—recently revealed as little more than a Donald Trump stenographer—return her Pulitzer Prize. I’ve no opinion on that, but if it does get returned, can it be given to REUTERS for its Musk coverage?
19/ REUTERS: Tesla Plans to Cut 600+ More Jobs in California, Notice to Government Says reuters.com/technology/tes…
20/ REUTERS: Tesla Strike in Sweden Heats Up As Nation’s Largest Union Joins Fray reuters.com/business/autos…
21/ These are all *recent* reports. They raise questions:

(i) Are there *any* Musk companies that are *not* flailing?
(ii) How many lawsuits is Musk now the target of?
(iii) How many state and federal investigations is Musk the target of?
(iv) Why does *anyone* support this man?
22/ REUTERS: Tesla Is Sued Over Emissions From California Plant reuters.com/legal/tesla-is…
23/ REUTERS: Australian Regulator Says Musk’s Twitter Should Not Set the Limits of Internet Law reuters.com/technology/aus…
24/ Given all these reports—including many reports on Musk’s use of drugs and bizarre public and private behavior—it’s no wonder that he’s being radicalized by far-right white supremacists in real time, and appears to be having some sort of mental breakdown.

It’s scary to watch.
25/ REUTERS: Elon Musk’s Twitter Loses Lawsuit Against Israeli Company reuters.com/legal/musks-x-…
26/ REUTERS: Protesters Attempt to Storm Tesla Plant in Germany reuters.com/world/europe/p…
27/ REUTERS may be the one indispensable news service in journalists’ ongoing fight to uncover the seemingly endless malfeasance of the world’s second-richest man. So him trying to destroy it is terrifying. Plus we see this idiocy from a Musk stooge he’s now gleefully amplifying: Image
28/ REUTERS: Reuters Wins Polk Award for Coverage of Elon Musk’s Business Empire

REUTERS has a Polk Award for this reporting; it deserves (another) Pulitzer beyond the ones it already has for this run of reporting on Musk.

It clearly has Musk terrified. reuters.com/business/media…
29/ REUTERS: Musk Decision to Leave Knife Attack Video on Twitter Prompts Police Terror Warning reuters.com/world/asia-pac…
30/ If Musk doesn’t want you to see something, it’s probably not just 100% accurate but desperately important—and harrowingly damaging to him in a way he richly deserves. Please do go back and RETWEET the first tweet in this thread so the world can see the man for who he is. /fin

This is one of the most shameful days in US history.

A weak, corrupt, compromised Kremlinist US president recruited his Yarvinist VP to gang up on a heroic ally on live TV. It devolved into a shouting match. Why?

This report explains *exactly* why.

🔗: sethabramson.substack.com/p/the-birth-of…Image
I mean it: that was one of the most distressing videos I’ve ever watched as an American.

Zelenskyy is the George Washington of Ukraine and one of the most heroic men alive. He sat through a shouted (televised) lecture by two of the _worst_ men alive.

A real-life *horror film*.
What happened today was a character litmus test.

If you watched those two weak-willed Kremlinists (Trump and Vance) and thought they were great, you’re a person of low moral character.

If it wasn’t *clear* to you who the hero in that room was—and how he was abused—shame on you.

I only went to Harvard Law and have three terminal graduate degrees, including a PhD, so I apologize if this is a question a drooling moron would ask, @yhbryankimiq, but is there a reason you do not list his accomplishments?

Is it because none are his—but those of his employees?
I know this is a difficult concept for Elongelicals, so let me use their favorite form of argument: anecdote.

I have 5 higher-ed degrees; I earned them all personally and in the shortest possible period of time.

Elon flamed out at three colleges and was *not* admitted to a PhD.
I’ve founded 4 startups: a consulting company and three media outlets, one a multimillion-dollar operation. I had no seed money for my startups but the little in my bank account.

Musk had money from his dad’s emerald mines and $300 million via Zip2—the idea for which wasn’t his.

As an Elon Musk biographer, I would peg his IQ as between 100 and 110. There’s zero evidence in his biography of anything higher.

And I want to repeat that now, lest you think it a typo.

There’s zero evidence, from his life history, of Musk having anything higher than a 110 IQ.
Stepped away from Twitter for a number of hours—on the basis of this not being a platform worth spending time on—and came back to find this tweet went viral because Nate Silver thinks Carlyle's 1800s theory of history, the Great Man Theory, is still relevant to historians in 2025
I understand the MAGAsphere runs on dudes who stayed at a Holiday Inn last night and are now expert astrophysicists, but another possibility is Musk's biographers know him better than fanboys do, and historians know more than pollsters about history.

I mean I'm just an American lawyer, so what do I know compared to a nepo baby whose money initially came from Zambian emerald mines, but under the United States Constitution and the thousands of Supreme Court decisions interpreting it for 250 years, free speech is *not* absolute
And I guess I would add to that, @ElonMusk, that if you don't know what I just said already, while you do not *have* to shut the f*** up under the First Amendment, you absolutely *should* shut the f*** up until you know what the f*** you're talking about, you *petulant man-child*
@elonmusk MAGAism is feelings over facts

All I ever hear Trump voters say is not what is true by law but what they think *should* be true, not actually how anything works but how they *wish* it would work

When you are poorly educated and know nothing, all you have is your Big Feelings

If you wonder why civil commitment statutes exist, the extremely dangerous derangement Musk is exhibiting publicly is why

He's now accused multiple federal agencies of being criminal operations, accused many federal officials of being criminals, and seems to believe he is POTUS
America is watching the mental collapse of the richest man on Earth in real time—and it's only a question of how many markets collapse, how many millions of people lose their jobs, and how many people die due to his actions before someone who cares about him tries to get him help
Clearly not one member of his family is willing to get off the gravy train to stand up to him and tell him that he needs to get off drugs, take a break from public life, and be hospitalized for a period of time

His employees know he is deranged but are obviously terrified of him

(📢) NEW at PROOF: This is my most important report on Elon Musk as a Musk biographer.

Read this and you’ll understand the man.

“Two Essays From Longtime Musk Friends Have Just Revealed Musk’s Supervillain Origin Story” (🔗):

Warning: dark stuff inside. sethabramson.substack.com/p/two-viral-es…Image
(Elon is throttling this feed. If you want anyone to see this new report, please RETWEET the post above.)
1/ One of the things that most surprised me about these revelations is how a number of them relate to the current nomination of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and the support Elon Musk has for it. As well as the support he had for Kennedy becoming President of the United States.
