He Blew the Whistle on DOGE. Then His Brakes Were Cut
A federal IT staffer filed a complaint about DOGE, then went public. Shortly after Elon Musk boosted a post calling his claims false, his brake lines were cut. Now he’s suing for defamation.

Seems like a straightforward lawsuit to win.
If it wasn't filed against the super rich. These guys never pay lawsuits, even if they lose, they appeal, they drag it out, and I suspect they pay people off, to avoid paying one way and another.
I wouldn't be surprised if they hired security firms that hired people that hire people to threaten jurors either at times, that is where we are in this country.
Not so much any more. There are funds that will support large lawsuits to prevent victims from going broke, they take a percentage of settlements but they neuter the idea of dragging out a case as strategy and usually trigger a fast secret settlement.
That lawyer scene was disturbing in Promising Young Woman.
How great would it be if Elon perished in his Tesla the same way the teens that burned alive did
I would feel a little let down. Don't those burn really hot or something? If he's gotta die, just throw him in a brass ox heated by llms.
Nah its better to be hoisted by his own petard or however the expresion goes
Poetry. I would prefer it be a cybertruck or a rocket
Has he ever been photographed in a CT?
I'd pay to watch him burn in a cyberdrumpster.
You don't actually believe K-Mart Hitler drives around in cars of its own brand, do you?
What does it drive around in, then? I feel like its a problem when any automotive exec isnt main driving one of its own brands cars?
"it" - use correct pronouns please. pile of shit = it. and it probably gets flown around in helis or limos.
✅ery well, granted
we can only hope for an unscheduled rapid disassembly of a heli with it inside. :)
Does it actually ride in helis? Never heard of elon travelling tha way. Always thought it was its version or Trump's only eating randomly selected fast food so he doesnt get poisioned by the Russians
I'm just assuming it's doing what rich people do to avoid the plebs. Keep in mind cars have to use roads like ordinary people. Do you really think billionaires risk getting into regular traffic much? I can't imagine that.
I’m pretty sure he realizes what a death trap they are and probably doesn’t ride in them.
Crime is legal in the US as long as you're part of the Epstein class.
This is exactly the kind of shit the CIA et al would do overseas to maintain US control of foreign governments, so no wonder the US/Trump are failing to maintain US global dominance. They’re frantically carrying out the same tactics on American soil to keep the house of cards from toppling & crushing the Epstein class
The imperial boomerang hits hard on the return trajectory. With any luck it sinks American global hegemony for good

It's more likely that the free trial period for his car's brakes ended.
Dumb observation here...
breakbrake lines are normally pipes, not wires.Brake lines are normally spelled brake.
No one said brake wires were cut. Regardless, many modern cars have brake-by-wire systems. It seems whomever sabotaged this car had a good knowledge of modern vehicle electrical systems.
“that the driver-side front impact/airbag sensor had also been removed but noted that the remaining wires had been spliced together, completing the circuit in a manner that prevented the vehicle from detecting or logging the missing component, while also preventing the vehicle from activating its safety protocols, alerting the driver, or engaging limp mode.”
so it was a professional job
With consultation from an automotive engineer. They shunted systems to work around safety checks that happen when you start a car.
By the government nonetheless
They may be pointing out that the image shows cut wires.
They are literally never pipes going to the wheels, they can't be, the wheels move on the suspension. They are hoses.
On a solid rear axle American truck it's common, usually with one flexible hose near the center.
Oh, yup, you're right, solid axles will have one flexible hose rather than one each at the wheelsm
from the master cylinder they run as pipes under the car. The hose section is just to connect the final segment
I am aware, I am in fact, a certified ex auto mechanic, nobody has ever referenced cutting brake lines other than the hoses at the wheels.
Interesting! I would probably be the worst sabotaging guy ever! Hahahah (or maybe the best because overybody only check the hoses lol)
Dumber response - Cutters can cut lines too. Pipes are bigger than lines.
Not only that but if it takes you 5 minutes of driving to realize u don't have brakes it's time you turn in your licence. I have burst lines before and once a line fails you no longer have any pedal pressure. If the line was cut when he got in his car right when starting the vehicle he should have stopped as the pedal went to the floor. More than likely his shit was rotted as I don't see a pic of this cut line, if it were cut it would be incredibly obvious vs corrosion.
Traitors have allowed Russia and Israel to infiltrate the highest levels of the US government. Time to clean house.
