Hi everyone, here are the final Tesla delivery estimates for Q3 2025. For reference, deliveries were 462,890 units in Q3 2024.

I don't have a magic solution to the question "how do we convince people who don't care that much about politics that Trump is bad" but I do feel very confident that tweaking New York Times headlines or shifting their content mix is not going to be the answer.

Last night in Poland we saw the most serious European airspace violation by Russia since the war began, and indications suggest it was intentional, not accidental.

I am in contact with NATO Secretary General Rutte and Poland FM Sikorski.

The EU stands in full solidarity with Poland. (1/2)

Donald Trump announced new tariffs last week, “emboldened by the fact that the economy had remained strong until now despite economists’ warnings—a fact that turned out not to be a fact at all,” Rogé Karma writes.

Turns out it wasn’t actually that strong.

My Trade Secrets today. Imagine the US in 1957 had seen the Sputnik satellite overhead & said "Nah, we'll leave space to the Soviets".

Thanks to climate change denial, mindless prejudice and trade protectionism, that's just what it's doing now with China & green tech, esp EVs and batteries. 1/2

Akkurat no går flyalarmen i Ukraina. Familiar i heile landet lurer på om det er deira hus eller nabolag som står for tur denne gongen.

Om eit par veker køyrer eg ned ein bil som skal brukast til å skyta ned droner, missil og anna russisk ufyse.

Dette kostar pengar.
Eg set stor pris på all støtte.
Bil til dronebekjempelse i Ukraina
Innsamla midler går til kjøp av bil, omregistrering, profilering, diesel og ferje, for å få bilen fram til Ukraina. Ingen pengar går til sjåførar eller administrasjon.
