Nope, No Corruption Here. Move Along

Donald Trump’s transition team is reportedly considering scrapping a car-crash reporting requirement that Tesla and X CEO Elon Musk stongly opposes, according to a new report.

According to Reuters, which viewed a document reportedly proposing the change, the removal of the requirement could hamstring the government's ability to effectively investigate crashes and regulate the safety of vehicles with self-driving systems, like Musk's Teslas and Cybertrucks.

Musk, who is the world's richest man, used his vast wealth to pour a quarter of a billion dollars into Trump's 2024 campaign. If Trump's team does remove the accident reporting requirements, it would likely directly benefit Musk's Tesla, which has reported the majority of crashes — more than 1,500 — to federal safety regulators under the program.

There is no "likely" on this. Teslas are rolling pieces of shit and Dilbert Stark will do whatever he can to cover up that fact.

I don't need to snark on this, the corruption, the quid pro quo, is as obvious as the missing nose on the Ghoul's face. Musk has rented, if not bought, the Trump Administration and Donnie is paying off for him.
