“A board loaded with defense contractors and one draft-dodging war hawk will decide the future of the US military,” said one observer. “What could possibly go wrong?”
It’s OK though: they’re overseen by a drunken TV host, and he’s overseen by a senile pedophile rapist, and in any case all the big policy decisions are made by the zombie-eyed, hairless, friendless Nazi lurking in the shadows.

A non citizen of the US leading their military. How can any of this go wrong

Naturalized citizen I suppose. Not a true citizen since citizenship by naturalization can be revoked. Elon musk’s naturalized citizenship should be revoked since he is a traitor and anEpstein class pedophile. An Epstein class naturalized US citizen should definitely be grounds for removal, don’t you think? Nope he’s being put in charge of the military. Can’t make this shit up 😂

Theoretically this can only be done if it’s proven the naturalized citizen lied on their application. So probably still applies to Elon.

His own brother admitted they lied on immigration papers, so it definitely still apploes

The other two, sure, but Palmer Lucky has actually been developing autonomous weapons for some time now… And he also sold Meta the Quest V1 which kicked off the current phase of VR technology some 15 or so years ago.

Last I recall Elmo thinks that stealth aircraft are pointless because they can be defeated by “cameras and AI” or some such. He literally thinks he’s the smartest engineer in the world when he’s not even an engineer.
This amount of corrupt rot and dunning-kruger has the promise of being a fatal bowie knife to the kidney of American military power, so I can’t say I’m too unhappy.

They actually had to hire someone who’s job it is to make sure Elon never talks to engineers. Because he had a bad habit of firing them when they contradicted him.
Which they did because he knew nothing about what he was talking about.
This problem was so bad it lead to a hiring crisis.

I think they also have a team at SpaceX to keep him away from important projects.

So merging XAI and SpaceX actually was a money saving idea because they could consolidate the don’t let Elon talk to the engineer teams?

Not surprised.
Billionaires are not the best and brightest of us. They are people who merely have a lot of money which buys more money. They don’t innovate, the success of their companies is in spite of them not because of them.
And I hope to see the revolution.

I don’t think enough people are questioning who the “influencer “ is and where he came from or who funds him
