Elon Musk has announced that he plans to move the Tesla HQ to Texas and Nevada 'immediately' after a California county health official said that the plant could not reopen.
The disgruntled CEO took to a comment thread on Twitter to share that he was also planning to file a lawsuit against Alameda County.
'Frankly, this is the final straw. Tesla will now move its HQ and future programs to Texas/Nevada immediately,' he said in the Saturday tweet. 'If we even retain Fremont manufacturing activity at all, it will be dependent on how Tesla is treated in the future. Tesla is the last carmaker left in CA.'

Texas!
We stick to our guns, bibles, and backbones. :-)
Yep. Some might call us something special. Our flag, able to fly at the same height as the US banner. (now that’s something special!)
Fair enough
The plant is currently unusable, but he may still have the income from the transferable tax credits.
Isn’t it about time for the kick-back, er, subsidies to expire?
Yes Texas is changing colors due to the spread of disease of another kind. Texas, it was nice known’ ya’ll.
Go Elon!! Eff California!
...
Actually, his beef is with the county.
Tesla is making parts in a neighboring California county 24/7.
But I don’t think he’s too happy with the state or big government in general, either. He’s made several Tweets about freedom and tyranny lately.

You and me, Elon. You and me. Six and a half weeks and I am outta here.
Dont worry, the Nut Jobs fear Texans. They will force Tesla to pay a hefty severance package and think they were smart.
Then find a job cleaning crap off of the sidewalks in San fran freako.
another company that ought to move its world headquarters is Boeing ... they need to move from Chicago to pretty much any non-blue state ...
Sorry we are full. You don’t want to move here alligator’s will eat your dog and the mosquitoes will snatch your child.
Nope Florida’s bad seek life elsewhere
Bang Zoom ...You’re Going to the Moon!
You know maybe Plano/Richardson.
Come to TN
“So if he comes to TX. ...does that mean a bunch of whack o CA lib’s move too? TX is changing colors soon.”
Don’t believe that. Union car workers=leftists. Non-union car workers=conservatives.
any guy who builds a tunnel on his own to cut time to work is ok with me.
Thanks for the ping. Musk is one of those guys I could see just disappearing with a giant LED “Brother, you asked for it” glittering on the side of a building. Before Trump I would have said it was inevitable, after Trump, stand by.
The perfect recipe for a typical liberal.
Elon, you were more than happy to take taxpayer subsidies to profit from. When the government gives, it always takes more. You would not be as rich as you are were it not for your corporate welfare at my expense. Suck it up, buttercup.
Maybe when more leftists like him realize that these governors are tyrants, we can correct course.
