Siddhant Awasthi and Emmanuel Lamacchia, the Tesla executives in charge of its Cybertruck and Model Y programs, are leaving the company.

The Tesla Cybertruck And Model Y Bosses Both Just Quit
Tesla has lost several top executives across divisions in recent months. They seem to be leaving on good terms, but the rate of executive turnover seems high.

Tesla’s profit fell 37% in the third quarter. It's been in the process of laying off 14,000 workers. It had more cars impacted by recalls than any other brand in 2024.
Yet Elon Musk just got a pay package worth $1 trillion.
American capitalism is off the rails.

Does the Speaker of the House know what's going on in the country?
It's not clear that he does, as Mike Johnson's communication strategy seems to rely heavily on being unaware.
When faced with questions he should be able to answer, he has a reliable response: "I don't know."
