You’re fucking dumb, they’re paid stations we weren’t losing money on them we were making money on them. It’s stupid as fuck to lose money to remove some shit that turns a profit. It’s virtue signaling to the virtue less.

You are clueless. The federal government is the largest employer in the nation. Every single one of these decisions affects hundreds of thousands of people.

Small things matter too, writing then off as inconsequential is idiotic.

Is this going to piss off his boss; Lonely Kumslut? Or is he intending to replace them?

His boss is the dictator of a major petro state. I’m sure he’ll be pleased.

These are almost all non-Tesla chargers with a plug which makes them more convenient with other brands.

Edit: fixed who can use the chargers

with a plug which can only be used by other brands.

Let’s not spread misinformation. Teslas come with an adapter to use J1772 plugs for charging, they can use those stations just fine.

Less convenient to use does not equal impossible to use.

Nah, Mellon Husk stands to benefit if other brands’ EV chargers close down

Yeah, that’s going to be my guess. Rip out the existing ones, then he sells a bunch of cybertrucks to the government and suddenly those chargers need to be installed, but this time as Tesla superchargers.

Shameful. Reminds me of when Reagan had the solar panels removed from the roof of the White House.

Everyone is focusing on musk, not realizing he’s trumps patsy. He’s the goddamn fall guy. He said some true, but unkind, things about trump and trump doesn’t forget slights. If this charade starts to crumble, he’s going to point at musk and blame him for everything.

I think they have other fall guys lined up. Trump seems barely coherent enough to run for office, musk is pulling trump’s strings

They’re both more than dumb enough to believe that the other one is their patsy without realising they’re really both Putin’s puppets.

It would be kind of tragicomic if they weren’t fucking up the world in the process.

That’s just untrue. They believe they’re each others’ fall guy. In reality Trump is owned by Russia (not exaggerating, look up “American Kompromat”), and Vance is owned by Peter Thiel. We can only hope that Trump’s pettiness and Musk’s ego can cause this whole house of cards to implode before they completely dismantle American institutions.

That will surely lower the cost of eggs! I know people say it all the time, but like cruelty is the point. Why do this? There is no savings, no point, it’s just to be a prick.

Not true. He’s also stealing and grifting a lot of money. Like, this guy was in insane debt before he ran for office… Now I believe he’s probably a legit billionaire.

He went to make sure fort Knox had gold the other day… Lol. We know what this guy is doing.
