Pro tip: Never hit a @Tesla on the freeway and speed away like you’re going to get away with it. 360 degree cameras record everything. Here is an idiot hitting me today on the freeway. He fled. Big mistake.

It really comes down to: do you want a car that drives itself or a car that doesn’t look like a family-sized suppository?

Cathie Wood just explained why the establishment will never stop coming for Elon Musk. And the reason is worse than they think. Wood: “Tesla was an environmental move, which I think a lot of people attacking his cars… they’ve forgotten.” They didn’t forget. You don’t forget thirty years of marching and petitioning and begging for the machine that saves the planet. Someone built it. Forced every automaker on Earth to follow. Then they turned on him the moment he delivered exactly what they asked for. Not because he failed them. Because he made them unnecessary. A solved problem is an existential threat to every institution built to solve it. Kills the funding. Kills the committee. Kills every career that exists to manage the crisis rather than end it. Wood: “I think he’s the Thomas Edison of our age… he wants to do the right thing to transform the lot of most of humanity.” Edison was hated too. By the people who sold candles. Every revolution looks like an attack to the people it makes obsolete. Wood: “What we learn about material science and technologies… is going to help us here on Earth as well.” SpaceX is not an escape. It is a forge. Build under the most brutal conditions in the solar system and every breakthrough comes home. Most people at his level stop building and start protecting what they have. Musk picks the hardest unsolved problem on Earth and runs straight at it. That is not what terrifies them. What terrifies them is he does it without their funding, without their approval, without a single thing they can hold over his head. A man you cannot buy is a man you cannot control. And a man you cannot control who keeps solving the problems you profit from is the most dangerous human alive. They will spend their careers trying to tear him down. Their grandchildren will live in the world he built anyway.

Back in 2019 when Tesla announced the Cybertruck, my wife and I were just starting to get our financial life together. Fast forward to 2026. After years of grinding, sacrifices, and staying disciplined, we finally reached a place of financial freedom I never thought we would see. Most of the credit goes to my wife. She is the one who got us on the right path and kept us there. Today I picked up my Cybertruck. Something I genuinely did not think would ever be possible for me and my family. To everyone who calls it a fridge, a trash can, or not a real truck, that is cool and we can share laugh together. One thing this is not….is a political statement, never will be. For me and my family, this truck is proof that the work we put in paid off. Grateful does not even cover it. 📐

2014 clip shows how much Elon Musk appreciates taxpayers. Host: Taxpayers essentially loaned you, Tesla, almost 500 million dollars. How much of that do you still owe? Elon Musk: We paid the whole loan back with interest and a prepayment penalty last year. Host: Did you have to do that? It wasn’t due, was it? Elon Musk: I know it was not due for another ten years or something. Host: Why did you pay it off early? Elon Musk: The taxpayers supported Tesla. We ought to repay them as soon as we can. And since we had the ability to do it and the stock markets were good, we thought, “Well, let’s pay it back with interest and a thank you note, by the way,” which said, you know, “I really, really appreciate it. Thank you.”

Charges have been dropped against Dharmesh Patel, the man prosecutors charged with attempted murder after he drove his Tesla off a 250-foot cliff along the Pacific Coast Highway in San Mateo County, injuring his wife and two young children. In a literal miracle, all four passengers survived the crash in their Tesla Model Y. A San Mateo County judge dismissed the charges on Monday after Patel completed a two year mental health diversion program with a Stanford psychiatrist and a family therapist.

Elon Musk just said the one thing about America they made sure you’d never learn. The one thing that should’ve made you proud, not ashamed. Musk: “After World War 2, the US could have basically taken over the world and any country. Like we got nukes, nobody else got nukes. We don’t even have to lose soldiers. Which country do you want?” One nation held a weapon no civilization had ever possessed. Total monopoly on destruction. No rival. No consequence. No limit. Every empire in history that held that kind of power did the only thing empires know how to do. They took until there was nothing left to take. America had a greater advantage than all of them combined. And rebuilt the nations it just defeated. Musk: “The United States actually helped rebuild countries. So it helped rebuild Europe, it helped rebuild Japan. This is very unusual behavior, almost unprecedented.” Not almost unprecedented. It had never happened. Not once in 5,000 years of recorded civilization. The nation with the power to take everything chose to rebuild instead. Enemies became allies. Rubble became economies. Surrender became partnership. Germany went from ashes to the economic engine of Europe in a single generation. Japan went from unconditional surrender to the third largest economy on earth. Three years after the war, America was flying food into Berlin. Into the capital of the country that just tried to end the free world. That decision reshaped every economy, every alliance, and every trade route on the planet. Billions of people lifted out of poverty over the next half century trace back to one moment. One nation choosing restraint over domination. No other country in history can make that claim. Not one. Musk: “There’s always like, well America’s done bad things. Well of course America’s done bad things, but one needs to look at the whole track record.” Every nation on earth has blood in its history. But the measure of a nation was never its worst chapter. It’s what it does when nobody can stop it. When nobody could stop America, it fed its enemies and rebuilt their cities. You’re being told every day that this country is something to be ashamed of. By people who have no idea what the world looks like without it. Every free market. Every open border for trade. Every democracy that took root outside Europe stands in the shadow of that single decision. The values that built this country didn’t just shape America. They shaped the modern world. AI is about to hand a small number of people a power advantage that makes nuclear monopoly look primitive. 1945 was the first test. AI is the last. That power is going to exist. The only question left is who holds it. The most powerful thing America ever did wasn’t building the bomb. It was having the power to take everything and choosing not to. The people trying hardest to tear that story down have never built a single thing worth defending.

John Fetterman just broke from the usual party line, praising Elon Musk as a modern-day Thomas Edison and questioning why anyone would hate someone who creates jobs and builds companies. Fetterman: “I'm in awe of what he's accomplished. We're the same age, he's so far more successful and smarter than I could ever be.”

Elon Musk did something no one in Washington has survived in a hundred years. He counted. You can lie in Washington and die of old age. Lies get you a committee seat. A pension. A statue with your name on it. The one thing the system cannot survive is an honest number. Musk: “You turn off the money spigot to fraudsters, they get very upset to say the least. My death threat level went ballistic.” Nobody threatens to kill you over inefficiency. Nobody puts a target on your back for a rounding error. They only reach for the knife when you touch the money. The press cut his villain edit before he finished the sentence. Politicians moved in formation. Same lines. Same hour. All guarding the same invoice. Joe Rogan: “The whole machine turns on you because you were getting in the way of this amazing graft.” Musk: “The goal was to destroy me absolutely.” $200 to $300 billion a year in fraud. A shadow economy the size of a G20 nation, stitched into your paycheck. Then he said the line they will never forgive. Musk: “Probably cut the federal budget in half. And get more done.” Half of what leaves your paycheck was never roads. Never schools. Never a country. It was feeding the thing that lives only as long as you never look. He looked. That is the whole story. Not that he was loud. Not that he was rich. That he was right. Out loud. With the receipts. The death threats were not a warning. They were a confession.

Elon Musk: “The reason I felt that it was important to acquire Twitter was because I could feel the walls closing in. It was outrageous that they suspended the account of a sitting president. I think it was only a matter of time before they suspended my account. Twitter and pretty much all the social media companies, Google and everyone are controlled by far-left activists. That’s the truth of it. How do you know what’s real when it’s all filtered through a far-left San Francisco Berkeley lens? They just manipulate the truth constantly."

I've been a Tesla convert for years. Model X, Model S Plaid, Cyberbeast. But the Model Y we just got still blew me away! It feels so tight, so well built, so right. Unbelievably good car and good value. It sending an Aston Martin DBX 707 and Taycan Turbo S out of the fleet!

The car is limited and can not reach its advertised charging speed, I'm in talks with the Zeekr engineers. Still fun to see it beat its 10-80% time, and especially doing so on Teslas home turf. It is literally 3 times faster than a LR Tesla.

We’ve now spotted Robotaxis across North Austin, TX… and even as far as Georgetown, Texas. That’s several miles beyond their current operational boundary. Whether it’s fleet expansion, testing, or repositioning, one thing is becoming clear: they’re showing up farther from where we expected. The future keeps getting closer. ⚡️🤖 @Divanyle0 @Smokehbear
