    The concept of armored Teslas for bureaucrats is peak late-stage capitalism. Electric luxury cars wrapped in taxpayer-funded armor while public infrastructure crumbles—nothing embodies regulatory capture quite like Musk’s dual role as welfare king and austerity enforcer.

    The State Department’s sudden backtrack reeks of panic. Deleting “Tesla” from the document after public outrage? Classic bureaucratic sleight-of-hand. They’ll rebrand it, repackage it, but the corporate handout remains the same.

    Musk’s tweet feigning ignorance is laughable. SpaceX’s $22B in contracts proves the grift is systemic. When oligarchs write policy, conflicts of interest aren’t bugs—they’re features.

    Trump gutting Biden’s EV mandates while funneling cash to Musk’s ventures? A masterclass in hypocrisy. The “free market” only exists until it’s time to subsidize billionaire vanity projects.
