  • The order came a day after the lawsuit by city District Attorney Larry Krasner was removed to federal court at the request of the Tesla CEO Musk and his America PAC.
  • Krasner’s lawsuit accuses Musk and the PAC, who are supporting Donald Trump over Kamala Harris, of running an illegal lottery.

    I’d be happy if they just deported him. I mean jail time and heavy fines would be the dream but I’ll take him having to leave the country. Isn’t that what they want us to do with foreigners that commit crimes anyway?

    Edit: Reminded this is a civil case so no chance of jail or deportation. Bit of doesn’t hurt to have dreams.

      He’s the world’s second richest fucking person. HOW DOES HE GET PUNISHED IF NOT JAIL OR DEPORTATION?! A fine isn’t a real fucking thing, it’s the equivalent of me giving less than a penny even though I commited a crime. It’s basically free for him
