The Pentagon is scheduled on Friday to brief Elon Musk on the U.S. military’s plan for any war that might break out with China, two U.S. officials said on Thursday.
Another official said the briefing will be China focused, without providing additional details. A fourth official confirmed Mr. Musk was to be at the Pentagon on Friday, but offered no details.

Did I miss the part where this piece of shit was vetted and granted security clearance? This is out of hand. Why does this man have access to literally anything that I don’t within my fucking government?
You know why he doe$.
Have YOU bought and paid for that access ?
This is great. Now he’ll be able to use giving the plans to Xi as a bargaining chip for a couple more tesla factories in China.
Who is going to buy his teslas? But I agree with you that he will pass something to Xi.
Why
I feel like i repeat this to myself 20 times a day. I can’t stand this administration.
I know it’s just awful. If it was a tv show it would be seen as unrealistic but its actually happening.
Trump was trying to get China to attack to initiate martial law in 2021. He’s probably trying to start a war to initiate martial law now.
Because no one’s stopped him.
Well clearly we haven’t been efficient enough in starting conflicts with China. We need to find ways to hurt our trade with them even further
Does this unelected twat even have security clearance?
Of course he does! Remember when Jared was denied clearance and trump overrode it?
Are you assuming laws, security, and allegiance to the USA exists right now?
What security clearance does that clown have? And why?
Why would president musk not have security clearance?
Dictatorships don’t need such things, and Elon is the heir apparent to Trump…
I wonder what jd will do when Trump dies and elon takes over.
I wonder what Trump will do if Elon dies and he has to take over.
Cry to the nearest couch in a sad attempt to get some pity sex?
He has some level of clearance due to the work SpaceX is done but even there, he does not have access to some of SpaceX program because he could not get the right level of clearance
He’s probably had a security clearance for a while now due to his involvement in space x
Not necessarily. Their are directors at my work that don’t have any clearances.
Well if course, he is the president
Musk is the CEO of the United Corporations of America and Trump is the Chairman of the board.
Holy fuck he is really going to start WW3
only if its profitable
War is always profitable. Especially if you don’t plan to ever fix damage to your country.
Luckily I don’t think Tesla-made tanks, jets and rifles will put up much of a fight on the battlefield.
Kamikaze
Yeah, ever see that picture of the outline of a kamikaze plane burnt onto the side of an otherwise intact destroyer?
The profit comes from SpaceX and Starlink.
Starlink is gonna get phased out, guaranteed in Europe at least, as people learn they can’t trust it. And I do believe SpaceX stuff keeps blowing up.
We the people need to put an end to this madness now! South Korea did it!
Lol my dad said trump was the best choice for avoiding ww3. Lmao even.
If war with China happens I am 100% defecting to China lol. I have absolutely zero love or respect for my shithole country.
I’d like to caution against percieving the grass as being greener.
The US is being a shitbird, but do not let that cloud criticism of other countries- their governments are (usually) rarely better.
And nobody treats turncoats particularly well, especially if they don’t offer concrete and immediate value beyond ‘hostage’.
Far better to agitate where you’re at- help your neighbors where and how you can and demonstrate how they’re being lied to.
Sorry I’m learning mandarin buddy
We have deranged psychopaths in charge of the US. We really are going to have WW3 soon aren’t we
Well attempting to annex Canada or Greenland automatically enacts Article 5 of NATO so 31 countries should in theory fight back. 29 of them would likely assist in their defense, and by defense I mean attacking the U.S. in ways that will economically starve the country until 10-15% of the voters realize this has all been idiocy and drag those responsible out of office and ban all responsible ever holding a public office again. Then we would have lost all trade allies and spend 100 years building back respect. Media will slowly start bringing their heinousness to light and slowly the vast majority will deny they were ever a part of it out of shame
attacking the U.S. in ways that will economically starve the country until 10-15% of the voters realize this has all been idiocy and drag those responsible out of office and ban all responsible ever holding a public office again.
Wishful thinking.
These bastards are spin masters that have conditioned their fandom to automatically assume all bad things are the fault of DeMoCraTeS, Woke-isms and foreigners. The mere thought that “their guy” could harm them is nearly impossible to comprehend. The people most responsible for such a disaster will thrive in the chaos they cause.
This timeline fuck’n sucks.
Maybe, but not many people in the U.S. think attacking Canada or the U.K. something they wanted to do pre-trump. So hopefully they’ll be some sense. Every non-white person in the U.S. still hasn’t absorbed the information that Trump removed the restrictions on segregation for bathrooms/resteraunts/water fountains for all U.S. contractors. The amount of interracial families that should start picking up that the racism is real should hopefully start accelerating at some point. The question is if it will be to far gone at that point.
I agree with you.
The question is if it will be to far gone at that point.
I do think that the rest of the US is not that far gone. Even if the Trump fandom is a lost cause.
What’s the plan? To bomb china with Teslas?
To share top secret intelligence with China.
Funniest comment of the day right here!

He’s not holding any cards right now. Trump made him a tough guy. He’s gambling with World War 3.
Wait, sounds… Nah forget it.
i have multiple layers of questions about why i am seeing a headline like this
I know it’s just… where to start.
