lmao......Musk is going all out, banging everything in site

He's right though, as soon as he went to the Darkside the liberal media went after him. His personal life should have nothing to do with the vehicles he sales, but whatever, just keep putting product out.
This would have been at the same time Grimes was having his child through a surrogate and a month after having twins with Shivon

2021 was a busy year

Quarantine must have given plenty of time to deal with two women at the same time, most of us have a hard time dealing with the one full time 😆.....Musk is truly a genius

Yeah. It's very salacious but it really doesn't have anything to do with anything. The only takeaway is maybe don't hang out with Elon Musk.
 
From the WSJ article:

”At a party earlier this year, Mr. Musk dropped to one knee in front of Mr. Brin and apologized profusely for the transgression, begging for forgiveness, according to people with knowledge of the incident.”

Elon is ramping up his eccentricity to 11 these days…
 
Your post does roughly zero to change the point of the post you are replying to. Also I would say that the drug companies pay taxes which help fund the research. It all depends on when you want to press the start button.
I'm not so sure they pay all the tax you think they pay EG. Pfizer relocated HQ to Ireland which is now a huge haven for companies to NOT pay taxes. They USED to be HQ on 42nd st Manhattan or thereabouts. Apple parks alot of its money in Ireland also. Some article I read a few years back claims 32TRILLION dollars is offshore out of the reach of the government. Wanna talk about the national debt now?

It is EXTREMELY unlikely the staid Wall Street Journal is going to break a sex story like this that if wrong would hugely anger two of the planet’s wealthiest men without solid sourcing. The lawsuit would be far, far too easy to lose ....and both guys could pay the lawyers to file it with with a rounding error from counting the change under their couch cushions.
Elon wouldn’t be ha ha-ing it and trying to act like there’s nothing there if the story was as wrong as he says. The suit would already be filed.
 
The suit would already be filed.
On what grounds? Elon is a public figure, so there has to be actual malice, which would be difficult to prove. A very smart person I know suggested that Elon was feeding these (bad) sources to the WSJ and media. That would make the most sense here. It works perfectly for Elon. Plus it would be super fun (and he doesn’t have much else to do so seems like a good way to spend his time).

Ha, that would be funny.

But the article gave the WSJ cover since it was based all on anonymous sources. Sources say this and that. So a libel case would be hard.

It was simply a shoddy article that will indeed tarnish the WSJ. so if Elon was behind it, then, congrats, he did some battle damage there.

Yep, perpetuates his desired narrative of doing battle against the click-maximizing attention on him, and his battle with the biased media, and allows him to discredit those sources in the process. Plus it gets him a supernova of attention which he loves and craves. For him it is win-win-win. And the media can’t help themselves, in their rush for a poorly researched scoop.

He’s loving this now; it is fun stuff that he got rolling, for maximum engagement. He is a pro.

Anonymous sources don’t work in court. If Elon had proof this wasn’t true -- starting with people who had seen his recent interactions with his fellow zillionaire, and the WSJ only had “anonymous sources” they would have no case.
