@FREEMINTZ @elonmusk Thank you, I do understand there are independent rental companies. However wanting to work directly with Tesla on the rental.

@ls_brucker @elonmusk This is possible, I can make recommendation

@elonmusk I want to rent a Tesla to round trip Az to California. It takes more than a test drive to really get FSD I expect. No crossing state lines to do this? Not helpful as a week rental, why would I stay in Az and not go visit family? Is this still in force and why?

@elonmusk @matteopelleg I want to rent one for a longer test drive. But I can’t drive to California from Az and back. Both states rent Tesla so this doesn’t make sense. I’d love to fo an extended FSD.

@matteopelleg True

Buying a Tesla in 2026 is like buying an iphone in 2010 You know eventually everyone will get one

You know exactly what he means and why dealing with the opaque Iranian regime is impossible ( unless sending cash). Not 1x in history have they acted in good faith. But again you know this, you make a living being an obnoxious opposition on Fox, so your voice matters little thankfully. We all have to make money doing something don’t we?

What an embarrassment this man is.

@stephenasmith And you actually spoke of running for office? The opaque crazy regime has never behaved or negotiated in good faith. And who knows who’s in charge now in said bad faith current regime. He’s putting out a message not trying to get likes on social media. Shshhhh

It never ends with Trump. It’s just never ends.

@piersmorgan @realDonaldTrump I wonder what Piers thinks 😂😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

This is embarrassing, Delete it, President ⁦@realDonaldTrump⁩ - unless you want everyone to think you’ve lost your marbles.

@Arightside Also ask "yourself" how does soft talk to terrorist networks work out? There is no half way in this, and it was caused by years of placation and talk that didn't cause hurty terrorist feelings.

In moments like this, we must look inward and ask ourselves honestly and without distraction: Do these words move us toward peace or further into conflict? What do they stir in our conscience and what kind of future do they lead us toward? AW

It would be great to be multi state especially across states who have the rental program? Can this be done? I am 75% sold on Tesla and think trips like this could help people decide. Thank you.

@BillAckman @X It’s got to stop, and if you have the will and means let it be you who starts the fight against what is sounding like extortion.

I am reaching out to the @X community for advice with the likely risk of sharing TMI. I have been sufficiently upset about the whole matter that I have lost sleep thinking about it and I am hoping that this post will enable me to get this matter off my chest. By way of background, I started a family office called TABLE about 15 years ago and hired a friend who had previously managed a family office, and years earlier, had been my personal accountant. She is someone that I trusted implicitly and consider to be a good person. The office started small, but over the last decade, the number of personnel and the cost of the office grew massively. The growth was entirely on the operational side as the investment team has remained tiny. While my investment portfolio grew substantially, the investments I had made were almost entirely passive and TABLE simply needed to account for them and meet capital calls as they came in. While TABLE purchased additional software and other systems that were supposed to improve productivity, the team kept increasing in size at a rapid rate, and the expenses continued to grow even faster. While I would periodically question the growing expenses and high staff turnover, I stayed uninvolved with the office other than a once-a-year meeting when I briefly reviewed the operations and the financials and determined bonus compensation for the President and the CFO. I spent no time with any of the other employees or the operations. The whole idea behind TABLE was that it would handle everything other than my day job so that I would have more time for my job and my family. Over the last six years, expenses ballooned even further, employee turnover accelerated, and I became concerned that all was not well at TABLE. It was time for me to take a look at what was going on. Nearly four years ago, I recruited my nephew who had recently graduated from Harvard and put him to work at Bremont, a British watchmaker, one of my only active personal investments to figure out the issues at the company and ultimately assist in executing a turnaround. He did a superb job. When he returned from the UK late last year after a few years at Bremont, I asked him to help me figure out what was going on with TABLE. When I explained to TABLE’s president what he would be doing, she became incredibly defensive, which naturally made me more concerned. My nephew went to work by first meeting with each employee to understand their roles at the company and to learn from them what ideas they had on how things could be improved. He got an earful. Our first step in helping to turn around TABLE was a reduction in force including the president and about a third of the team, retaining excellent talent that had been desperate for new leadership. Now here is where I need your advice. All but one of the employees who were terminated acted professionally and were gracious on the way out (excluding the president who had a notice period in her contract, is currently still being paid, and with whom I have not yet had a discussion). The highest compensated terminated employee other than the president, an in-house lawyer (let’s call her Ronda), told us that three months of severance was not enough and demanded two years’ severance despite having worked at the company for only two and one half years. When I learned of Ronda's request for severance, I offered to speak with her to understand what she was thinking, but she refused to do so. A few days ago, we received a threatening letter from a Silicon Valley law firm. In the letter, Ronda’s counsel suggests that her termination is part of longstanding issues of ‘harassment and gender discrimination’ – an interesting claim in light of the fact that Ronda was in charge of workplace compliance – and that her termination was due to: “unlawful, retaliatory, and harmful conduct directed towards her. Both [Ronda] and I [Ronda’s lawyer] have spoken with you about [Ronda’s] view of what a reasonable resolution would include given the circumstances. Thus far, TABLE has refused to provide any substantive response. This letter provides the last opportunity to reach a satisfactory agreement. If we cannot do so, [Ronda] will seek all appropriate relief in a court of competent jurisdiction.” The letter goes on to explain the basis for the “unsafe work environment” claim at TABLE: “In early 2026, Pershing Square’s founder Bill Ackman installed his nephew in an unidentified role at TABLE, Ackman’s family office. [His nephew]—whose only work experience had been for TABLE where he was seconded abroad for the last four years to a UK watch company held by Ackman—began appearing at TABLE’s offices and conducting interviews of employees without a clear explanation of his role or the purposes of these interviews. During this period, he made a series of inappropriate and genderbased [sic] comments to multiple employees that created an unsafe work environment. Among other things, [his nephew] made remarks about female employees’ ages (“Tell me you are nowhere near 40”), physical appearance (“Your body does not look like you have kids”), as well as intrusive questions about family planning and sexual orientation (“Who carried your son? Who will carry your next child?”). These incidents were reported to senior leadership at TABLE and Pershing Square. Rather than being addressed appropriately, the response from senior management reflected, at best, willful blindness to the inappropriateness of [his nephew]’s remarks and, at worst, tacit endorsement.” The above allegations about my nephew had previously been brought to my attention by TABLE’s president when they occurred. When I learned of them, I told the president that I would speak to him directly and encouraged her to arrange for him to get workplace sensitivity training. The president assured me that she would do so. When I spoke to my nephew, he explained what he actually had said and how his actual remarks had been received, not at all as alleged in the legal letter from Ronda’s counsel. I have also spoken to others at the lunch table who confirmed his description of the facts. In any case, he meant no harm, was simply trying to build rapport with other employees, and no one, as far as I understand, was offended. Ironically, Ronda claims in her legal letter that TABLE didn’t take HR compliance seriously, yet Ronda was in charge of HR compliance at TABLE and the person who gave my nephew his workplace sensitivity training after the alleged incidents. In any case, Ronda, as head of compliance, should have kept a record or raised an alarm if indeed there was pervasive harassment or other such problems at the company, and there is no evidence whatsoever that this is true. So why does Ronda believe she can get me to pay her nearly $2 million, i.e., two years of severance, nearly one year of severance for each of her years at the company? Well, here is where some more background would be helpful. Over the last two months, I have been consumed with a major family medical issue – one of my older daughters had a massive brain hemorrhage on February 5th and has since been making progress on her recovery – and I am in the midst of a major transaction for my company which I am executing from a hospital room office next to her . While the latter business matter is publicly known, the details of my daughter’s situation are only known to Ronda because of her role at our family office. Now, let’s get back to the subject at hand. Unfortunately, while New York and many other states have employment-at-will, there has emerged an industry of lawyers who make a living from bringing fake gender, race, LGBTQ and other discrimination employment claims in order to extract larger severance payments for terminated employees, and it needs to stop. The fake claim system succeeds because it costs little to have a lawyer send a threatening letter and nearly all of the lawyers in this field work on contingency so there is no or minimal cash cost to bring a claim. And inevitably, nearly 100% of these claims are settled because the public relations and legal costs of defending them exceed the dollar cost of the settlement. The claims are nearly always settled with a confidentiality agreement where the employee who asserts the fake claims remains anonymous and as a result, there is no reputational cost to bringing false claims. The consequences of this sleazy system (let’s call it ‘the System’) are the increased costs of doing business which is a tax on the economy and society. There are other more serious problems due to the System. Unfortunately, the existence of an industry of plaintiff firms and terminated employees willing to make these claims makes it riskier for companies to hire employees from a protected class, i.e., LGBTQ, seniors, women, people of color etc. because it is that much more reputationally damaging and expensive to be accused of racism, sexism, and/or intolerance for sexual diversity than for firing a white male as juries generally have less sympathy for white males. The System therefore increases the risk of discrimination rather than reducing it, and the people bringing these fake claims are thereby causing enormous harm to the other members of these protected classes. So what happened here? Ronda was vastly overpaid and overqualified for the job that she did at TABLE. She was paid $1.05 million plus benefits last year for her work which was largely comprised of filling out subscription agreements and overseeing an outside law firm on closing passive investments in funds and in private and venture stage companies, some compliance work, and managing the office move from one office to another. She had a very good gig as she was highly paid, only had to go into the office three days a week, and could work from anywhere during the summer. Once my nephew showed up and started to investigate what was going on, she likely concluded that there was a reasonable possibility she would be terminated, as her job was in the too-easy-and-to-good-to-be-true category. The problem was that she was not in a protected class due to her race, age or sexual identity so she had to construct the basis for a claim. While she is female and could in theory bring a gender-based discrimination claim, she reported to the president who is female and to whom she is very close, which makes it difficult for her to bring a harassment claim against her former boss. When my nephew complimented a TABLE employee at lunch about how young she looked – in response to saying she was going to her 40-year-old sister’s birthday party, he said ‘she must be your older sister’ – Ronda immediately reported it to our external HR lawyer. She thereby began building her case. The other problem for Ronda bringing a claim is that she was terminated alongside 30% of other TABLE employees as part of a restructuring so it is very difficult for her to say that she was targeted in her termination or was retaliated against. TABLE is now hiring an external fractional general counsel as that is all the company needs to process the relatively limited amount of legal work we do internally. In short, Ronda was eminently qualified and capable and did her job. She was just too much horsepower for what is largely an administrative legal role so she had to come up with something else to bring a claim. Now Ronda knew I was a good target and it was a good time to bring a claim against me. She also knew that I was under a lot of pressure because on March 4th when Ronda was terminated, my daughter had not yet emerged from consciousness, she was not yet breathing on her own, and my daughter and we were fighting for her life. I was and remain deeply engaged in her recovery while at the same time I was working on finishing the closing for the private placement round for my upcoming IPO. Ronda also knew that publicity about supposed gender discrimination and a “hostile and unsafe work environment” are not things that a CEO of a company about to go public wants to have released into the media. And she may have thought that the nearly $2 million she was asking for would be considered small in the context of the reputational damage a lawsuit could cause, regardless of the fact that two years of severance was an absurd amount for an employee who had only worked at TABLE for 30 months. She also likely considered that I wouldn’t want to embarrass my nephew by dragging him into the klieg lights when her claims emerged publicly. So, in summary, game theory would say that I would certainly settle this case, for why would I risk negative publicity at a time when I was preparing our company to go public and also risk embarrassing my nephew. Notably, she hired a Silicon Valley law firm, rather than a typical NY employment firm. This struck me as interesting as her husband works for one of the most prominent Silicon Valley venture firms whose CEO, I am sure, has no tolerance for these kinds of fake claims that sadly many venture-backed companies also have to deal with. I mention this as I suspect her husband likely has been working with her on the strategy for squeezing me as, in addition to being a computer scientist, he is a game theorist. My only advice for him is to understand more about your opponent before you launch your first move. All of the above said, gender, race, LGBTQ and other such discrimination is a real thing. Many people have been harmed and deserve compensation for this discrimination, and these companies and individuals should be punished for engaging in such behavior. Which brings me to the advice I am seeking from the X community. I am not planning to follow the typical path and settle this ‘claim.’ Rather, I am going to fight this nonsense to the end of the earth in the hope that it inspires other CEOs to do the same so we shut down this despicable behavior that is a large tax on society, employment, and the economy and contributes to workplace discrimination rather than reducing it. Do you agree or disagree that this is the right approach?

@_The_Prophet__ "I" not "In"

@_The_Prophet__ In stopped for all of these very reasons 11 years ago, and really wished I had accepted the facts earlier.

⚡️Alcohol is a socially legalized self-poisoning ritual that culture still flatters because it is old, profitable, and woven into status, celebration, and relief. Most people still treat alcohol like a harmless lifestyle accessory with a few edge-case downsides. That is fantasy. Alcohol degrades sleep, recovery, judgment, mood stability, training quality, metabolic control, and long horizon health. It also has the uniquely stupid feature of making people feel like the damage is connection, sophistication, or decompression. The real pattern is simpler. More alcohol means more damage. Frequent alcohol means compounding damage. Nightly alcohol is one of the dumbest normalized habits in modern life because it feels mild while quietly wrecking recovery. The deepest truth is that alcohol’s biggest advantage is that it is familiar. People forgive it because they grew up around it. If alcohol were discovered today and introduced as a new consumer chemical that mildly reduces inhibition, worsens sleep, raises accident risk, increases long run disease burden, and trains people to borrow mood from tomorrow, respectable society would call it a public health disaster. The line about offsetting damage with sunlight, exercise, and nutrition is weak. Those things make a person healthier. They do not transform alcohol into a smart choice. They help absorb the blow better. That is different. Stronger baseline health does not make repeated self-sabotage magically coherent. So the real answer is simple. Zero is best. Rare is far better than regular. Nightly is stupid. Bingeing is barbaric. The cultural defense of alcohol is way stronger than the biological case for it. Where to stand on it? Treat alcohol like an expensive tax on clarity, recovery, and future health. If someone still wants to pay that tax occasionally, fine. But call it what it is. Stop dressing it up as wellness, balance, or harmless fun.

@TheoVon @joerogan Difficult, as you state as fact your ideas convinced by the information you have at the time and then viewers see and hear you and draw conclusions with same. Maybe both are misled? Saying it goes both ways. Take care, be healthy , people are actually quite forgiving

People are taking stuff out of context and thats not fair. Joe and i were having a convo abt getting off antidepressants prior and this is after that. Joe has been supportive on and off mic abt my well-being, like any friend would, and im grateful. Thanks @joerogan for having me

I love @DaphneOz and her chocolate chip cookie recipe.

@ChefGruel Seriously? That won't be the reason, 10 seconds of research tells you why the price is high and then as mentioned the cattle cycle takes time. GOP didn't cause it....Silly

If the price of meat doesn’t come down it’s going to be a bloodbath during the midterms for republicans. It’s that simple.

@CoffindafferFBI Your

@CoffindafferFBI You’re re analysis is “almost” hiding the fact that you are re victimizing her and friends, family, and public by placing this video that adds nothing to your analysis in the thread.

Violence Warning Charlie Kirk It is really critical that people understand what the ballistics findings mean in Charlie's case. That bullet went into Charlie, did not exit, and was mangled in the process, and became a bullet fragment. Bullets don't tell the story in this instance. Casings do. You see there are marks left on a casing (casings hold the bullet) when they are ejected by a gun. These are caused by the extractor and ejector of a gun. There are also little impressions made by the firing pin that are unique. That is what is used to determine what gun shot a cartridge. Can bullets also be linked to a particular gun via examining the rifling striations? Yes, but that requires a bullet to be intact for comparison. Charlie's bullet upon removal was more of a fragment, not a round. Tyler Robinson is accused to assassinating Charlie. The bullet fragment not matching Tyler's gun is not exculpatory evidence, it was expected due to the state of the bullet. On a side note, sure wish people would quit revictimizing Charlie's widow. It's really pathetic. #charliekirkshot #TylerRobinson

@ChefGruel Can you use whole poached egg or temper the yolk? I’m old school and worry about salmonella.

@elonmusk I need our housing community to put in a couple chargers. We live in a small rural community with summer homes. Many patio type homes no garages . Does Tesla have solutions for communities like ours.

True

🤣🤣🤣

@MichelleMaxwell That’s very frustrating and don’t let it discourage you from getting answers or going to emergency if anything feels off. Did you put your results into grok? I would, it read my husband’s ekg and blood test thoroughly and perfectly

Now I remember why I almost never go to the doctor. The cardiologist I went to was basically useless. I actually ended up in tears because he made me feel like my situation was no big deal. He never even asked me any questions about my medical history. He decided to do me a favor by scheduling an echocardiogram for the 2nd. Before I left to see him I took my blood pressure and it was 138/90. I took a screen shot of it because I was in shock I normally have super low blood pressure and when mine is high it is about 120 like a normal person. My husband had a heart attack at 46 and open heart surgery where he bottomed out and had to be wheeled back into surgery because they didn’t properly clamp an artery and he was bleeding out into his back. So I have seen first hand how heart situations can turn out. I am BRCA2 positive and have had prophylactic surgeries. One of them was a bilateral Salpingo oopherectomy (tubes and ovaries removed). This caused me to go into shock menopause before the age of 45. So I don’t have estrogen and all of this can have a major impact on the heart. I also supposedly snore and have sleep apnea(according to my husband and daughter)and previous situation leads to this and also greatly impacts one’s heart. This supposed cardiac doctor never once asked for a history and was just basically like, “so what brings you here?” It was the last appointment of the day and a Friday and they already had some lights turned off. I should have just gone to the hospital. I just really needed to vent. America needs more natural health focused doctors that are conservative. I ended up taking two baby aspirin when I got home. This doctor was foreign and could have cared less for what I am experiencing. Sorry for the novel. Going to try and get some sleep. Have a good night everyone. Thank you for caring. Love, Michelle 😘
