So it seems that Musk did gift some Cybertrucks to Putin's Chechen warlord Kadyrov, but when the news got out was forced to remotely disable them lest he be arrested for an intentional sanctions violation. 1/ One more piece of important evidence ⬇️

2/ Yes, Elon, we really do think you're poorly intentioned and colluding with enemies of America. It's very easy to believe based on everything else you've done.

Are you seriously so retarded that you think I donated a Cybertruck to a Russian general? That’s amazing 🤣🤣

4/ Musk bots are now showing up and looking to "poke holes" in this information. Do not allow fake accounts that started showing up about 10m ago dissuade you from recognizing the reality that this U.S.-based platform owner is doing some fucked up shit!
5/ Yes. Many, if not most, modern electronics can serve dual-use as surveillance apparatus.

It seems Musk can geolocate his vehicles and positively identify at least one of the vehicles sufficiently to disable them remotely, he also has the ability to gather other sensitive intelligence data directly from the battlefield at Tesla HQ, including video! Read: x.com/JSharp1436/sta…

6/ Yesterday (Sept 20), via : "In August, Kadyrov shared a video of himself driving a Cybertruck around the grounds of his palace, demonstrating the vehicle’s capabilities. The truck had been fitted with a machine gun turret, and Kadyrov donned an ammunition belt as

7/ Chinese state media, ~3am GMT on 20 Sept. The story's timestamp is probably when it went out on AFP wire later in the day, but Internet Archive + a second archive site have a 3am timestamp.

8/ I cannot find an earlier source than SCMP (again, Chinese state media, a Russian ally) via AFP which was then republished by many other publications. It seems their article may have been the first.
It isn't. Other connected-car manufacturers don't really want you thinking about this either, but we haven't seen evidence they're using it to support the wartime operations of a country which has been a longtime enemy of the country in which the companies are respectively based
Even if he gifted them rocks with wheels, he still gave a foreign hostile enemy, rocks with wheels, as a US contractor and US citizen.
His insistence he didn't probably means the vehicles were obtained through an intermediary & there may not be an authoritative record available as to who purchased them. If true that he disabled one or more, then Tesla may have been forced to geolocate them, and has the VIN(s).
IF Elon donated or even sold cybertrucks to Russian generals, doesn’t he have to register as a foreign agent? Are US corporations allowed to do business in sanctioned countries??
Even if he didn't sell them directly, which seems unlikely, they have a satellite data service. We don't know whether they were connected to it prior to the bricking, but it seems likely bc how else could they brick it without data service? It is also possible Tesla did directly

So refreshing when someone can see the true motivation of Elon Musk. I've been telling people for over 20 years he is not what people think. Finally it is becoming obvious to others. 😻
i don't see how "disabling" it has anything to do with the fact he violated international sanctions in shipping it to them in the first place....
Wonder if it has anything to do with this

Well, yes, it's a complex computer system connected to Musk's satellite network. Tesla has remote connectivity to the vehicle anywhere it is (as long as it has line-of-sight to the sky) unless Kadyrov is able to jam the antennas without impacting his own comms. Since it is very

Those Cybertrucks should have gone through Mossad first before shipping them to Kadyrov. Would have been really nice to see Kadyrov and his sons in it with a loud explosion!
JSYK: Tesla vehicles use Cellular or WiFi to send and receive data. They do not come with Satellite Connectivity as standard.
It’s 2024. Are there really no other long-form content publishing options on the Internet so that you have to resort to daisy-chaining text snippets on X?
There's nothing in the attached article that substantiates the claim that Musk lifted this/these trucks to Kadyrov. Musk is spreading a lot of disgusting conspiracies here on his site. You're not helping by making further unsubstiated claims. 1/2
I, the person who is reporting on Musk, is actually also SUPPORTING his mission of spreading disinfo? You're a harmful idiot. Blocked
Are you relying on the fact that Kadyrov says he’s buds with Elon to “prove” he’s buds with Elon? As one of Elon’s closest friends, I can say this is categorically false.
