          He has top secret clearance and openly does ecstasy and cocaine and a bunch of other recreational drugs. That’s normally a thing that prevents you from getting a security clearance.

    That he’s walking around without consequences does in fact show he can just ignore it. Actually have him suffer the consequences of his actions please.

    I like that new style of headlines!

    “Court to Elon” tastes so much better than the former tradition of “Elon said”

      Sure he can, just hire enough lawyers to stall the process until the public forgets and we’re on to being outraged by the next big asshole, doing asshole things. Rinse and repeat.
