(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

Imagine being a 42 year-old pleading with a known pedophilic sex criminal to fly you to his island so you can party with girls he assures you will be 25 or younger.

Then imagine lying about it to hundreds of millions. Even after your lies are caught.

You don't hate Elon enough.
Instead of saying—as honor demands—"I made horrible mistakes for which there's no excuse, I'll take time away from public life to reflect on them," he's kept lying, attacked media, tried to distract, and obscenely said he worked harder than Epstein's victims to get the Files out.
Now imagine that this happens during the same 12-month period this man gleefully—without having any idea what he was doing, or even *caring* if he had any idea—cut a massive foreign aid program whose erasure is projected to cause *more than 10 million deaths* in the years ahead.

This major report on the Greg Bovino-to-Tom Homan handover in Minneapolis at once reveals that the Trump regime hasn’t changed its plans for ICE *and* serves as a primer on the many aspects of the criminal justice system Homan lied about today.

🔗:

RT! sethabramson.substack.com/p/trump-border…Image
It can't be sufficiently emphasized that the Trump regime has at all points lied about every aspect of its immigration agenda, every aspect of how immigration enforcement works and every aspect of the justice system that touches upon immigration enforcement.

It's all a long con.
No one is saying that every American must understand the justice system.

That would be ideal, but it's impractical.

The problem is that our justice system lies at the center of our politics—which means ignorance about how it works is ripe for abuse by an authoritarian regime.

I shouldn't even have to say this, but precisely *no one* in the independent journalism sphere is saying that Trump can *legally* cancel the midterms.

So corporate media should put on its thinking cap and ask themselves what independent journalists *are* saying.

Yes.... *that*.
It's Month 1 of a 10-month plan and they're already illegally invading countries, illegally occupying U.S. cities, posting Nazi memes from government accounts almost daily, and publicly saying there should be no elections anymore. You think their plan is to do *anything* legally?
So I've no idea why corporate media keeps sanctimoniously reminding us of something we already know—that Trump can't *legally* cancel elections. Because that's not where the debate or mystery is now. The question is whether he thinks he can wait until 2028 to declare martial law.

The question media should be asking: if Minneapolis only needs 600 police officers to perform all general law enforcement activities in the city, why did Trump send 3,000 federal agents to execute a statutorily and constitutionally *much* smaller task?

Answer? He wanted a *war*.
Based on the size of the task and authority ICE actually has—merely executing judicial warrants for already-identified undocumented persons—we'd expect an ICE "surge" in Minneapolis to be about 100 agents.

Trump sent *30 times that*.

Because he wants to declare an insurrection.
So if you're an American paying only small attention to Minneapolis and wondering why things are crazy there, imagine *your* town being the target of an *unprecedented* federal op.

Big deal, right?

Now imagine the feds sending *30 times* too many men—most *virtually untrained*.

(🧵) THREAD: There’s no purpose in debating Trump supporters on Venezuela. They lack the background to participate in a coherent conversation. Do they know Trump is backing a socialist despot over a capitalist who won the 2024 election by 34 points? No.

It gets worse from there.
1/ People without principles, like MAGAs, desperately alight on random anecdotes to try to “prove” points—as they don’t know how to *actually* prove a point, make an argument, hold a consistent position, marshal evidence, or maintain logical throughlines across diverse scenarios.
2/ So for instance, they’ll tell you that the justness of what Trump did is “proven” by how some Venezuelans reacted to it. But these are the same folks whose political ideology has long been grounded in denying international law and the sovereignty or interests of other nations.

This is the tip of the iceberg.

As detailed in 2020 bestseller Proof of Corruption, Trump used Erik Prince, Rudy Giuliani and a megadonor to launch clandestine negotiations in Venezuela that would've effectuated some version of the deal. America is being lied to every which way. Image
What the NYT-bestselling Proof Series has shown—across 2,500 pages and over 15,000 reliable major media citations from around the world—is that what we think of as many different scandals is *one* scandal: the Trump-Russia Scandal. Ukraine, Israel, KSA, Venezuela... even Epstein.
The Trump-Russia Scandal, as a research topic, is so vast—it covers so many continents, decades, and scandals in various nations—that we can analogize being a scholar of it to being a scholar of the Cold War or the Gilded Age.

We keep speaking of trees without seeing the forest.
