Sorry to stop the hate train, but just wanted to remind everyone:

    His presence at the hearing was not required.
    The State judge allowed the status quo to continue.
    Removal to federal court is a routine procedure when there is diversity jurisdiction.
    His pledge asks people to affirm the First and Second Amendment to the Constitution, and therefore should not be seen as politically biased. In other words, someone could sign the pledge, vote for Harris, and get the $1 million prize.
    Musk is a citizen and cannot be deported.
    He paid $11 billion in taxes in 2021.

You would think reddit would be more sympathetic to the legal issues of an African immigrant.

This is where we start getting into the fundamental incompatibility of billionaires with a functional, law-abiding society.

There is no financial punishment they can levy against him that he can't simply absorb and deflect. Any fine, no matter how many hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars, is just the cost of doing business for him β€” or he can just not pay them at all and stay wrapped up in court by proxy, his daily income far exceeding any legal fees he could possibly encounter.

Short of prison time, there is simply no way to incentivize a corrupt billionaire to follow the law. They have no need and no reason to. There is nothing they can do but try to imprison him, and that means spending millions and millions of dollars in taxpayer money trying to go up against the aforementioned endless resources he can dedicate to legal proceedings.

Just launch him into the fucking Sun already. I am so SICK and TIRED of this bullshit.

Same people crying about immigrants flooding the country and breaking the law, not respecting the country...

Will praise elon for coming to this country, having a dozen mixed race children, and ignoring requests to be in court for potentially breaking the law

They hate when the "Hollywood elite" use their celebrity and money to sidestep consequences.

But they love when rich buttholes from other countries come here to subvert the election process. And then use loopholes to avoid the potential consequences.

This party of law and order--oddly enough--is filled to the brim with people who spit in the face of the law and have zero care for order while they sow chaos in our society.

Are you literally tarded? Requested means requested. He was not ordered, ergo it is his choice.

And yea I will praise him. He pays for his kids, he pays taxes, he's not some scum bag boarder jumper who just steals jobs from bluecollar workers because he's willing to work for less than union rate

lmao at all these people thinking he's going to catch a contempt of court charge

The guy is a literal billionaire. He doesn't just have a lawyer, he has a whole legal team. I guarantee if it was actually mandatory that he go, his team of lawyers would have told him and he would go.
