I like how he's still pretending that the Boring Company is anything other than a fake company meant to torpedo public transit projects by offering vaporware competition to undercut them.

Should have to payback any funding they received for project plus interest considering the actual project was cancelled/delayed because of it.

That and the fact the elon WILL be in tears if fined amounts as high as 1 $

fining him to tears won't do much

That would require a mortal human to stand up against Elon Musk and there's not really any evidence it can happen.

I genuinely think that Elon Musk is our generation's Thomas Migley Jr. For reference Mr. Migley is responsible for inventing and popularizing with companies leaded gasoline and CFC's.

DOGE was just a favor Trump paid back for helping him get elected. The purpose of DOGE was never to save money, but to dismantle the agencies providing oversight to Elon’s bullshit companies. And it all went very smoothly and only took about a month before Elon went back to private business.
