Despite a judge’s order that “all parties must be present,” Tesla founder, X owner and billionaire Elon Musk did not appear in a Philadelphia courtroom Thursday after District Attorney Larry Krasner sued him over his super PAC’s plan to award $1 million a day to voters in key battleground states in the 2024 election.

Krasner and members of his office joined attorneys for Musk in Judge Angelo Foglietta’s civil courtroom at City Hall for a hearing Thursday at 10 a.m. ET.

Musk’s attorneys filed documents Wednesday night in the U.S. District Court in Philadelphia, a federal court, requesting the matter be moved to their jurisdiction – and out of the local Court of Common Pleas. A judge granted that transfer.

Attorneys for Krasner said they would contest that recommendation.

    Why do they always look so evil?

      Presumably because mania is a key part of the cult, and many portrayals in media use the behavioural signs of mania to convey evil.

      Although I’m sure plenty of people might look a little manic if they were pictured while handed a lot of money with a big debacle made out of it.

        I wonder what it would feel like to be manic

              No problem, its actually chemically similar to MDMA, which is euphoric and beautiful, the colours are brighter, the food tastes better, music sounds amazing, you feel no need to sleep, but obviously after 4-5 days of that it gets to be unnerving, you can begin to get irritable and begin making poor choices. Its honestly sometimes the best and worst times of my life.

              Fun anecdote I once was manic I became so confused that I convinced myself LSD would cure depression and wound up taking close to 2000 tabs over the course of 4 months. Just wild

                  It did not help, I wound up spiraling and flipping between large amounts of LSD and large amounts of benzos. Ended in a suicide attempt.

                  Lasting affects are I really have a great sense of how my thoughts work. I’ve been sober for almost 7 years now and stable for a good 6. No real negative mental or physical affects other than the mess I made of my life. I’m an addict so I know I won’t be able to try to use these things even in a controlled setting.

        He dresses as baphomet that is depicted to have a beard and female breasts, while spouting hate against transgender persons all day?

      It’s the eyes. It’s the emptiness you see when Jehovas Whitnesses knock on your door.
