Back in the saddle again
X ^ | 05/24/2025 | Elon Musk

Posted on 05/24/2025 11:53:43 AM PDT by SmokingJoe

Back to spending 24/7 at work and sleeping in conference/server/factory rooms.

I must be super focused on 𝕏/xAI and Tesla (plus Starship launch next week), as we have critical technologies rolling out.

As evidenced by the 𝕏 uptime issues this week, major operational improvements need to be made. The failover redundancy should have worked, but did not.

God bless Elon Musk. He did a great job with DOGE.

DOGE has allegedly saved us $170 billion dollars or 8.5% of the stated goal. That figure hasn’t changed since May 9.

He was the lightning rod, just as Trump has been. By making the left think it was all about him, the stage has been set for the very smart and capable DOGE workers to continue their work with much less drama. DOGE is hear to stay regardless of where Elon spends his time.

Yes.
A lot of people don't know he used to sleep at the Tesla factory back in the day when Tesla was constantly facing bankruptcy.
And before that when he founded his first company, slept at his office and showered at the YMCA.
He had a tough hard grind to get to the top, but that hasn't stopped African American Democrat grifters from trying to use the government to steal his money,

Russell Vought has taken over most of Musk's duties at DOGE.

Indeed. Trump should award him the Medal of Freedom.

Vought is outstanding—brilliant and hard core—exactly what we need.

Congress can over appropriate money—but as long as they do not try to enforce impoundment we are still good to go.

Yes.
That's what I took my post headliner from, not from the Elon Musk post.

Corporate and governmental America needs to learn from this guy. When was the last time your organizational head said,
As evidenced by the 𝕏 uptime issues this week, major operational improvements need to be made. The failover redundancy should have worked, but did not.
Instead we get,
Sustainability goals have been attenuated by indiscriminate challenges to infrastructual systems and planning, outputs to which implementation of diversity, equity, and inclusion will not adhere, despite equity backflow and continued opportunities for improvement.

I want to thank Elon for devoting so much of his talent to helping Trump make American Great Again.

He was demonized by the left and the media. His Tesla automobile brand was attacked by the left. Other countries tried to ban his StarLink communications system. His love of this country has cost him financially. He has feared death threats from those criminal deep state elements whose taxpayer dollar slush funds have been exposed.

No, I wish you God's Speed in doing what you do best and that is thinking outside the box to make American and the World a better place.

Thank you for your time and knowledge.
