The Supreme Court has told Elon Musk to buzz off.
The Supreme Court refused Monday to hear an appeal from Elon Musk’s X Corp. on the company’s claim that special counsel Jack Smith took an unlawful deep dive into Donald Trump’s social media account without notifying the former president.
X Corp. begged the Supreme Court in July to determine under what circumstances a tech company can be compelled to turn over information on its users, while being prevented from alerting those users that they’re being investigated.
…
When X Corp. challenged the order, it was found in contempt and fined $350,000. Prosecutors argued that notifying Trump of the search would endanger the evidence.

Boy…. Musk sure is simping hard for the turdmonger.
Probably should check his bank accounts for rubles
It seems to me that Musk is trying to get deeper into politics, and one way to do that is to be a part of Trump’s cabinet. So I’d imagine he is bootlicking for the role. And it’s probably working.
Well, bootlicking always works on mewling narcissists.
But the after taste is awful. And permanent.
Some people have no concept of taste, and Musk would certainly fit that description.
I bet all he’s ever had is a concept of taste.
Just like the concepts of a plan.
Thank god he can’t run for President. I don’t think he’d be satisfied being one-among-many Senators or Representatives. Governor of Texas, though…
Oh, he’d definitely try to secede.
Two of his largest businesses depend on the US government being friendly to him. Space X and Telsa. The grift is in plain sight. “Please keep buying my rockets, and please don’t make life hard for EV manufacturers.”
I don’t necessarily think this is a boon. I mean this time is against people i hate, and that’s cool. Just as long as the government can be trusted not to abuse their power.

Ah, after reading the headline I was wondering what motive could be so ulterior that it could override the MAGA Justices’ [sic] corrupt compulsion to help Trump. Yep, putting gag orders on services while investigating their users is nefarious enough to fit that bill.
Just to be clear here, if there’s anybody who eminently deserves to be fucked over by secret subpoenas, it’s Trump. But despite that political expediency serving the good guys (for once), it’s still a bad precedent.
This isn’t the NSA snooping on your private conversations because it’s a day ending in a y.
This is a search for corroborating evidence against someone credibly accused of inciting a fucking insurrection done with reasonable suspicion, court order, the works.
As for the “gag order” part, Trump is known to routinely delete evidence and there’s no doubt that Musk would warn him to do so if it didn’t put himself in legal jeopardy.
Tl;Dr: you’re comparing apples and hand grenades.
The NSA were looking through our webcams. Donnie committed a felony on live television. Hope this helps you spot the difference.
