🇺🇸 Elon couldn't even turn off "work mode" on a first date Long before Tesla took over the world, he reportedly kicked things off by asking about electric cars… then spent the whole night talking about them. Some people call it obsession, others call it the reason Tesla exists.... show more

🇺🇸 Elon in 2013: “I’d trade a Tesla for one bite of a chicken burger” Yes, really. Long before Tesla took over the world, this was peak Elon humor: chaotic, random, and unfiltered. Who else is glad he didn’t actually trade the car? Throwback gold that still hits. Writer: Val

🇺🇸 Elon walked the line that used to build cars, that’s where Optimus is coming from now. He says they’ll start with the dull work like simple jobs on the factory floor, then the harder stuff. And with time, people get to buy one: A humanoid that leaves a Tesla plant and eventually shows up in someone’s house. Factory first, then everyday life after that.

NEW: CNN “Tesla investor” pushes insane narrative that Tesla owners are getting flipped off on the streets for driving a car associated with Elon Musk. “Consumers don’t want anything to do with the brand. Every day, people complain they’re getting flicked off for driving a Tesla. “So Tesla makes some of the best cars in the world, but it has the worst image as a company of any company I can think of right now.” This smear job is about as pathetic as it gets.

Elon Musk: Big companies thought electric cars were dumb. That's why we started Tesla. “The incumbents are resistant to new technology. Generally there's an opportunity for new companies when there's a significant technology discontinuity. Some sort of step change in technology is what opens up an opportunity for a startup. Certainly the world didn't need another car company that made gasoline cars. There are plenty of those. But no one was doing electric cars. The reason we started Tesla and put all the effort into it was not because we thought there was this huge opportunity in electric vehicles, but actually because no one was doing electric. Everyone thought it was stupid. And the big companies thought it was dumb, and there weren't really any startups doing it. So it's like, if a big company is not going to do electric vehicles, then it has to come from a startup. That's the only option. Source: World Energy Innovation Forum, May 16, 2014

🇺🇸 Elon on xAI building the first gigawatt-scale compute cluster in record time: "Jensen Huang said he's never seen anything built so fast in his life. A great compliment from Nvidia." People said reusable rockets were impossible. He landed them 500 times. The pattern is always the same: everyone says it can't be done, and then he does it. Source: Tesla Elon Musk

Nobody wanted to build a real electric car The biggest automakers had the money, factories, engineers, and decades of experience, but they did not believe a truly viable electric car was possible or that people would buy one They did not even want to try it at least Elon did. He built Tesla to prove that electric cars could work, could sell, and could force the entire auto industry to change He proved it, and now the rest of the world is following Before Tesla, EVs barely existed and largely dismissed by the entire auto industry. Elon is one of the main reasons electric vehicles advanced so quickly and became impossible for the auto industry to ignore Today, Tesla is the most valuable automaker on Earth.....worth more than the rest of the publicly traded auto industry combined One person was willing to attempt what every established company had already dismissed, and that changed the entire course of the human history

#BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: “Before the White House said anything about it, we learned this weekend from a Kremlin announcement, that Donald Trump apparently had an HOUR AND A HALF long call with Vladimir Putin this weekend. That’s apparently how the President of the United States celebrated the 250th anniversary of the founding of our country. He had a long, undisclosed, secret phone call with a foreign dictator he has weird slavish devotion to, and who helped him get elected to the White House in the first place. Again, it was the Kremlin that reported first on the existence of the call. After the Kremlin reported that the call had happened, not the White House, we had to hear it from Russia, Trump was then asked about it by reporters and he did then admit today that he’d had the call with Putin right before heading off to NATO. Huh, who called who?”🤦‍♀️

George Blankenship got so emotional sharing the story of early Tesla The Model S was the first car from Tesla that was really meant for people to drive like a regular car It was their do-or-die moment. The production line pushed the company into one of the most terrifying survival stories in startup history 10,000 people trusted and handed Elon Musk $5,000 each without a car or a guarantee - only a promise The reality behind the scenes was grim. In Q2 2012, Tesla managed to deliver just 12 cars in an entire quarter. Wall Street was circling like vultures, waiting for them to die With the company’s life on the line, Elon took a massive, unbelievable gamble: he publicly tweeted that Tesla would be profitable by Q1 2013 To pull off that miracle, Elon demanded exactly 4,750 deliveries. The standard he set was absolute. The pressure was so intense that George Blankenship was required to email Elon every single night at exactly midnight with raw survival metrics: how many cars shipped, how many were ready, how many were moving By the final week, it was pure desperation and unity. IT guys were washing cars. Marketing guys were driving them across the lot. Under Elon's unrelenting drive, job titles vanished. Everyone did everything to keep the dream alive Then, on the final Saturday of the quarter, at exactly 3 PM... Car 4,750 was delivered Blankenship stood on his desk, looked at his exhausted team, and told them: "What you just did is monumental... not just for Tesla, but for what we're going to do for mankind" Tesla shocked the world that quarter with an $11M profit. The stock violently surged from $20 → $90 They did not just build a company. They forged a foundation for the entire EV revolution

NEW: Tesla investor Ross Gerber says Elon Musk’s “divisive Nazi rhetoric” is driving Tesla into the ground—demands he ditch DOGE or step down as CEO. “There isn’t more that Elon could do to turn off customers from Tesla. I really don’t think there’s more he could do.” “It’s people like Ned who are now keying Teslas and protesting in front of the showrooms because they’re so unhappy with the decisions he’s making in government and all the divisive Nazi rhetoric that he keeps spewing.” “So if he’s going to work in the government… work in the government. He’s obviously doing a great job, right? (Sarcastic) And if he’s going to work at Tesla, then work at Tesla. But there’s some other CEO that runs Twitter… So why isn’t somebody running Tesla?”

🇺🇸 TESLA: MY SELF-DRIVING CARS DRIVE BETTER THAN YOU Tesla just dropped the receipts: Full Self-Driving cars rack up 2.9 million miles before a serious crash, over 4x safer than your average driver. Minor crash? Still nearly 1 million miles between them. The U.S. average? Just 229,000. They even count it as a crash if FSD was on five seconds before impact, even if it was turned off when it happened. Tesla’s using official crash definitions, just like the feds: if the airbags go off, it counts. And unlike the usual vague safety talk, Tesla’s showing hard data, not PR fluff. Waymo talked big, but Tesla’s the one actually posting numbers. Robotaxi race? Tesla’s driving it like it already won. Source: TechCrunch, Poblana

Peter Thiel on Elon Musk: “When Elon was building Tesla and SpaceX in the 2000s, people—even PayPal alumni—thought he was really crazy. We planned a book where his chapter was titled ‘The Man Who Knew Nothing About Risk.’ If one succeeded, you’d call it luck. But when both harebrained ideas triumph, you have to reassess: Maybe the rest of us are too risk-averse, or Elon knows something about risk we don’t.”

If you're interested in Tesla Robotaxi, Tesla AI or Tesla FSD, then you ought to know about jimmah . He's probably the one person who's done the deepest public dives on Tesla FSD and Tesla AI over the years. In fact, over the past 4 years I've published 40+ videos (!) with James Douma on Tesla AI/FSD (they are all on a playlist on my YouTube channel). I first discovered James Douma a long time ago (maybe almost 8-10 years ago?) on a web forum called . Back then it was one of the only places for early Tesla owners and TSLA investors to discuss issues deeply. While I posted about investing topics, James posted about Tesla Autopilot and its hardware but in a way that was more thorough than anybody else. When I started posting YouTube videos years later, I invited him on my channel to hear his thoughts on Tesla Autopilot/FSD. It was a riveting discussion and I was surprised at how much I could learn from him. I invited him again for another interview on my channel, and once again I was floored by how much I was learning. So over the years, James has been a great resource for me (and many others) to keep pulse on what Tesla is doing with FSD and AI (and even robotics). He doesn't have his own YouTube channel. He doesn't have any paid services or subscriptions. He probably has mixed feelings about so many people knowing about him. But I appreciate his willingness over the years to be available and help the Tesla community by offering his insights and knowledge. Yesterday I spent most of the day with James taking Robotaxi rides and discussion all things Robotaxi: - current state of Robotaxi - quality of Robotaxi rides - possible scaling plans - challenges - comparison to Waymo and others - Tesla AI 5 - and much more Attached is a 2+ hour edited video of our Robotaxi rides and discussion. We also had an hour+ discussion on Optimus humanoid robots that I'll upload as a separate video tomorrow.

Before Elon Musk introduced the Model S and Tesla in 2012, there had been 17K electric cars sold in a country of 300M people. He LITERALLY INVENTED the electric car industry as accepted by the customers.” “He saved the space program. Many Democrats say they love science. It’s CRAZY to me that he’s become the whipping boy when he’s single-handedly accomplished so many things that Democrats say [they care about].” YEP!
