    Taxpayers money and governmental resources being used to protect some asshole’s private assets. Musk, as the richest person on Earth, apparently can’t afford private security.

    Why? I thought Trump would love to dismantle the FBI so why help his ‘friend’ Musk? Okay, justice for all so the do well to investigate, but a whole taskforce? Doesn’t sound very doge to me.

    This is the best use of taxpayer dollars in a long time. /s

    1. Do they really have nothing better to do?
    2. They’re all supposed to be busy redacting Epstein files.

      1. Probably. Why commit atrocities against America if they’ll just do it themselves?

      2. They were never gonna do that. Trump and his buddies are on there.

    Oh good, I see that since they now have time and manpower for this it must mean that they’ve finally caught all those serial killers and human traffickers. Way to go on that 100% clearance rate, boys!

    So someone already tried to run down the protesters (from the article):

    “The protestors had to move out of the way in order to avoid being struck by the vehicle,” the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement on the arrest of the man, Andrew Dutil.

    Dutil was charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon without intent to kill.

    How is trying to run down humans in a car out truck not an intent to kill?

      Someone tell the FBI’s “vandalizing a Tesla is domestic terrorism” task force that I found an instance of domestic terrorism

      Anyone else who finds it too convenient that qanon started in Trump’s first term and immediately this is gaining prominence? Distraction campaigns clearly work and we really need to prevent these angry boomers yelling at town halls from reverting to being internet conspiracy theorists with this nonsense.

          It’s gobbledygook made from “geopolitical” words, arranged to look like secret code.

        I’m not posting this because I think it’s a distraction or any kind of psyops campaign. But it’s a little unnerving to think that these people are placing stuff in food and that really doesn’t seem to cause any sort of concern.

          From what I understand, it’s a major felony to tamper with food. The notes are not touching the food, but it certainly isn’t a good feeling that some groyper had their grubby fingers on your purchased product.

      Why do these things seem to happen so much in Pennsylvania? From the Toynbee tiles to the steel furnace letters, why does it seem we get so much weird shit?

    Why do we need a task force when we already know the stock price is tanking, “full self driving” is expensive vaporware, teens are roasting Cybertruck owners1, and even Canadians (!) are vandalizing showrooms?

    Oh, they meant the other way. Sorry, just read the article.

    1 Don’t laugh at this one. The teens eventually come for us all. Do not ask for whom the teen roasts. Teens roasts for thee.
