Most companies win in arbitration -- which is a system that is rigged to support the company and arranged & paid for by them. Musk's x/Twitter is managing to lose cases in their own arbitration court -- which is now lined up with cases from outraged former employees who want to take it through the entire process. These successes will only spur more employees to go fully to the finish line. When you clearly have not paid former employees their agreed upon severance; it is pretty hard for even an arbitration court to rule in your favor. This may end up costing Twitter tens of millions by the end. At this point Musk should simply settle and pay out the agreed to severance amounts to former employees. An ex-Twitter employee won a legal battle over unpaid severance. Experts say it could spark more claims. https://www.businessinsider.com/ex-...d-severance-dispute-elon-musk-takeover-2024-9
The idiot Musk gets fact-checked by his own "anti-woke" AI. Musk's claim that “Very few Americans realize that, if Trump is NOT elected, this will be the last election” is obviously false. In fact the inverse is potentially true -- if you listen to Trump's own words -- he will be a dictator on Day 1 and you will never need to vote again. Mark Cuban Fact-Checks Unhinged Elon Musk Conspiracy Theory Using Musk's Own Tech No, Democrats are not flying people "directly into swing states" to change the vote there. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/elon...g-state-conspiracy_n_66fab7b4e4b0a61d19be9aec Elon Musk on Sunday embraced a racist and wildly conspiratorial election theory ― only to get fact-checked by fellow billionaire Mark Cuban, who used Musk’s own AI chatbot to do the job. Musk, who’s endorsed Donald Trump and was once rumored to be donating $45 million a month to a pro-Trump super PAC, claimed Sunday that the former president “is the only way to save” democracy from immigrants. “Very few Americans realize that, if Trump is NOT elected, this will be the last election,” Musk wrote on X, the social media platform that’s lost nearly 80% of its value since he took over. He then asserted, without any evidence, that Democrats are flying immigrants “directly into swing states” who are then “fast-tracked to citizenship” for the purpose of altering the outcome of the election. The claim is false. Noncitizens must first spend at least five years as a lawful permanent resident before they’re typically eligible for naturalization, meaning Musk’s conspiracy would have had to begin during the Trump administration to bear any meaningful fruit. (The median number of years in the U.S. for citizens naturalized in 2023 was actually longer: seven years.) And according to the Department of Homeland Security, the top 10 states where people who were naturalized last year reside are: California (not a swing state), Texas (not a swing state), Florida (not really), New York (absolutely not), New Jersey (also solidly blue), Illinois (nuh-uh), Washington (try again), Pennsylvania (the only one), Massachusetts (blue) and Virginia (debatable). Nine-tenths of those are not swing states. Pennsylvania, the lone exception, only accounted for 2.8% of those naturalized in 2023. More than 50% live in California, Texas, Florida and New York. Undeterred by facts, Musk predicted that, if Trump loses, “there will be no more swing states” and “Democracy is over.” (Relatedly, Presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden both separately deported more people than Donald Trump.) Musk’s rant also caught the eye of Mark Cuban, who fact-checked Musk using Twitter’s own “anti-woke” AI chatbot Grok, which Musk concocted after finding competitors were too politically liberal. “Hey [Elon Musk], truly appreciate the work you have done with [Grok].” Cuban wrote to Musk in a public message. “It’s a great way to factcheck you.” Cuban then shared a link to Grok’s lengthy analysis of Musk’s claim. The chatbot concluded that Musk’s xenophobic theory “contains exaggerated claims and speculative fears rather than factual analysis,” and was “presented in an alarmist and overly deterministic manner.” Earlier, Cuban also publicly called out Musk’s servility to Trump and warned it would never be repaid. “Elon, there will come a time when you need something from Donald Trump,” he wrote. “You will think you will have earned the right to ask and receive. You have been a loyal, faithful soldier for him. You have supported him politically with 10s of millions of dollars. “Then, at the point you need him the most, you will find out what so many before you have learned, his loyalty is only to himself.”
How will Trump execute this take-over on day one? Will he pack the court to rubber stamp it Will he create new states to pack more auto-Dem senators Will he remove the filibuster to get a simple Senate majority vote Will he remove the electoral college and change to popular voting Will he then remove all the States powers and Nationalize all state functions , Heath, education, welfare, voting These five steps,long Democratic dreams, will bring all power into the Executive office and remove all checks and balances END RESULT = FASCISM...Dictator on day one
In his original post on the matter, Musk argued that, “Very few Americans realize that, if Trump is NOT elected, this will be the last election. Far from being a threat to democracy, he is the only way to save it! Let me explain: if even 1 in 20 illegals become citizens per year, something that the Democrats are expediting as fast as humanly possible, that would be about 2 million new legal voters in 4 years.” “The voting margin in the swing states is often less than 20 thousand votes. That means if the ‘Democratic’ Party succeeds, there will be no more swing states!!” he continued. “Moreover, the Biden/Harris administration has been flying ‘asylum seekers’, who are fast-tracked to citizenship, directly into swing states like Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin and Arizona. It is a surefire way to win every election. America then becomes a one-party state and Democracy is over.” In her article, Giraritelli systematically takes Musk’s claims apart, writing that “The Washington Examiner analyzed Musk’s claims and determined that claims did not align with the reality of how illegal immigrants from the border are processed.” “When asked to respond in a statement, Musk declined to comment when asked for proof to support his claim and blocked a Washington Examiner reporter from further contact,” she added. https://www.mediaite.com/news/conse...sk-over-fact-check-of-absolutely-false-claim/
