It looks like a case of runaway romance mode on that Model X on the lake. The fire leapt from the screen into the cabin and the rest is history.

Only Elon knows why he tweeted that. I would not presume to know, that was my point. He is privy to so much more relevent info than any of us are. And he knows more about the effects of such a tweet. Additionally, he has more skin in the game than anyone else.Can you elaborate on what Elon perceived as the benefit from a tweet that, to those of us who willingly admit to being uninformed, appears to be gratuitous?
So I think (as a non-lawyer) I'm not sure this extends to constitutional First Amendment prohibitions: the U.S. Government cannot require, even via voluntarily agreed to contracts and settlements, terms that violate the Constitution.
One prime example are the very restrictive Trump NDAs of White House staffers, which are considered unenforceable by many:
Trump NDAs can’t silence ex-White House officials: legal experts | Reuters
“These NDAs strike me as clearly unconstitutional under the First Amendment,” said Kitrosser.
“A public employee,” added Fenster, “can’t be forced to sign away the right to speak.”
With the obvious national security and privacy exceptions.
While a consent decree is a stronger legal document than an employment contract, and even for the WH employment contracts the legal profession is ... conflicted.
But note what the SEC is trying to do here: they are trying to restrain all of Elon's Tesla related speech, just on the basis that it 'might' contain material non-public information, and the legal challenge they started here uses a case where arguably Elon didn't disclose any material non-public information.
Note how the SEC lost a key First Amendment case in the past:
Securities and Exchange Commission
"In Lowe v. Securities and Exchange Commission (1985), the Supreme Court addressed whether the SEC violated the First Amendment when it sought to prohibit Christopher L. Lowe from distributing his “impersonal” investment advice letters. The SEC sought to regulate Lowe’s newsletters under the Investment Advice Act of 1940. The Court decided the case primarily on statutory, rather than constitutional, grounds in determining that Lowe had the right to publish his letters under a statutory exception for newspapers."
Note that Lowe was a convicted felon, yet he won the case. But the facts of the case are different: he was convicted and ordered, he didn't settle.
I actually think that image looks kinda cool and artistic.

@Fact Checking I really hope your right. I hope the judge throws the book at the SEC. What gives me pause is why the Tesla lawyers didn't make this case with the SEC, and if they did, why then is the SEC still pursuing. Are either the Tesla or SEC lawyers truly that incompetent or are we missing something here?
He always means run rate.
That makes sense. I was under the impression that it was a back and forth. Like the SEC going to Tesla and saying that we're considering filing a contempt case against Musk and is there any reason that we shouldn't? But if it is how you say, then boy the SEC did not do their homework and they're going to look stupid in court.I believe you are missing that this is regular procedure: Tesla only saw the full memorandum and detailed arguments of the SEC when the SEC made their filing.
Before that the SEC only wrote short, curt letters, to which Tesla replied in a narrow fashion as well.
I'd expect Tesla to bring out the big guns in their reply filing. My post tries to guess how Tesla's reply filing will look like on March 11.
Thursday 2pm? Payoff?
And now, because of all the SEC shenanigans today - there is wall to wall financial news coverage about Tesla 2019 car production growth expectations - which are probably a surprise to a lot of non-Tesla investors. Maybe a reason for the heavy buying activity today.
