As a lawyer, I can confirm that this is astoundingly stupid and wrong. Just because it doesn’t fit under one very specific statute, it does not mean it’s not corrupt. Go to SEC.gov and read some of the FCPA enforcement actions. USG has prosecuted people for way less.

Yep, that’s exactly the term Michael Che used to describe Trump’s activities with Stormy Daniels on SNL’s Weekend Update 😁

This was exactly my lab. He would smack the water with his paws and then try to bite the splash, all while his butt was sagging because he didn’t know to use his back legs to kick. But then one day he jumped in our pool to chase after a ball and swam with perfect form. It could still happen!

He set the record for a *one year* tax bill because he was exercising $100b worth of options that year. Doesn’t mean he’s paid more than anyone ever, or that he’s paid anything close to commensurate with his wealth. And he still gets his cash tax-free from margin loans.

Do you have any evidence at all for this claim? Just because he’s richer than everyone else, doesn’t mean he paid more taxes. He famously never sells Tesla stock - he borrows using the shares as collateral, so he gets cash without paying tax. It’s possible you’re right, but I don’t think so.

Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning. Elon invested about 6 months after it was founded, and only became CEO about 4-5 years later, right as their first model Roadster was released.
