The bromance is over. Musk doubles down in fight with Trump administration, risking his empire

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Over the next several years, Elon Musk aims to take astronauts to the moon using a 403-foot rocket, launch a fleet of autonomous vehicles that lack a steering wheel or pedals, and turn millions of existing Teslas into self-driving cars overnight.

Musk has acknowledged his ambitions require overcoming regulatory hurdles, roadblocks presented by NASA, the U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Aviation Administration and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Throwing caution to the wind, Musk took aim at the man overseeing each one of those agencies in X posts this week - Transportation Secretary and acting NASA administrator Sean P. Duffy - igniting a new public feud with the Trump administration through an official who possesses direct oversight of his business empire.

“Having a NASA Administrator who knows literally ZERO about rockets & spacecraft undermines the American space program and endangers our astronauts,” Musk said in an X post on Wednesday.

1. Stopped Clock Example

Musk isn't right often, but he's right about this.
Duffy is a buffoon.

2. Off today, on tomorrow. Adolescent crush

3. I could see him trying to attain the post himself, this being but one method

He repeatedly showed his belly to trump, and that's all trump requires. Musk's bizarre showmanship and ability to run a great company into dirt is a green mark in the trump column as well.

7. One could say this in reference to every appointment TSF has made. What, therefore, does that say about him??

“Having a NASA Administrator who knows literally ZERO about rockets & spacecraft undermines the American space program and endangers our astronauts,”

8. It's all performative.

All of it.

9. Now would be a sweet time for some mutually assured destruction

[DavidDvorkin]

10. Musk also plans to produce an army of general-purpose robots

There will be one in every home. And he has said that he wants to have influence over that army (or words to that effect).

11. Some say he's still fucking Stephen Miller's wife.

I'm certainly not, rather just asking questions.
