  • getting involved
  • 3:30
  • in European Politics on top of that um
  • 3:33
  • please see this old video if you haven't
  • 3:34
  • already Twitter was an awful deal for
  • 3:37
  • Wall Street one of the worst since the
  • 3:39
  • great financial crisis um check out that
  • 3:42
  • and I mentioned this because I think one
  • 3:44
  • of the things that could be and it's
  • 3:45
  • hard to say because this is where you
  • 3:47
  • know you have to do some investigation
  • 3:49
  • and this kind of stuff um is there
  • 3:51
  • foreign money propping up Tesla SpaceX
  • 3:55
  • uh Twitter right Elon Musk himself uh
  • 3:57
  • who knows uh you'll get these headlines
  • 3:59
  • up every now and then where for example

  • 4:01
  • it says Russian oligarch held stake in
  • 4:03
  • mus SpaceX through the trust while he
  • 4:06
  • was sanctioned it's like okay how is
  • 4:08
  • that even a thing um then you have this
  • 4:10
  • Ela mus secret talks with Putin ramped
  • 4:12
  • up during his Twitter takeover that was
  • 4:14
  • back in October I'm mentioning these
  • 4:16
  • things because sometimes people don't
  • 4:17
  • realize like how much uh this sort of GL
  • 4:20
  • guys reaches all over the world and
  • 4:22
  • multiple uh entities are involved even P
  • 4:24
  • Diddy was part of this thing he actually
  • 4:26
  • invested in Twitter Jack dorsy there was
  • 4:28
  • Sai money in it there was Russian money
  • 4:30
  • in it uh Elon Musk when you call him out
  • 4:32
  • on places like Reddit uh he'll get uh
  • 4:35
  • your Forum blocked this came out
  • 4:37
  • February 5th Reddit blocks white people
  • 4:39
  • Twitter Forum after mus says Doge post
  • 4:42
  • broke the law and on top of that again
  • 4:46
  • he's supported by all kinds of things
  • 4:47
  • now this one I'm not sure I'll be I'll
  • 4:49
  • be frank I'm not sure now I'll explain
  • 4:51
  • what I mean by that uh the headline
  • 4:53
  • reads Tesla offers Insurance subsidy for
  • 4:55
  • model 3 buyers in China so basically
  • 4:58
  • right you know well try to give you

  • 5:00
  • discounts on your insurance um I do know
  • 5:03
  • that there are subsidies for Tesla in
  • 5:05
  • China right and so is it the insurance
  • 5:07
  • part of that I'm not sure I just know
  • 5:09
  • that there are Chinese government
  • 5:10
  • subsidies out there um and this is sort
  • 5:13
  • of how you keep your company aoat so
  • 5:14
  • I'll give you an example so this is
  • 5:16
  • something that's being offered for uh
  • 5:17
  • car companies right now in China where
  • 5:19
  • um if you trade in your uh conventional
  • 5:21
  • car you'll get like more of a trade in
  • 5:24
  • right it's just it's a government
  • 5:25
  • subsidy so if you you know do this with
  • 5:29
  • the insurance maybe more people will buy
  • 5:30
  • Teslas but it's it's artificially
  • 5:32
  • propped up the same way for example is
  • 5:34
  • um this was another one that just came
  • 5:36
  • out today there's always Teslas like
  • 5:37
  • this crazy drama company so is musk
  • 5:40
  • Tesla will give you cheaper car
  • 5:41
  • insurance but only if you take the risk
  • 5:43
  • of engaging quote full
  • 5:45
  • self-driving um basically Tesla
  • 5:47
  • Insurance isn't very good people have
  • 5:49
  • mentioned that before in the community
  • 5:51
  • um it doesn't necessarily cover you the
  • 5:52
  • way you want and then the customer
  • 5:54
  • service is God awful like it's all
  • 5:56
  • through the app and I don't think you
  • 5:57
  • can necess get someone on the phone that
  • 5:58
  • easily um and then I guess theoretically

  • 6:01
  • if you want to take their insurance
  • 6:02
  • maybe they're discounting it but don't
  • 6:04
  • expect the coverage to be very good and
  • 6:06
  • also too you're putting your like
  • 6:07
  • because like for example what good is
  • 6:08
  • insurance if if you die I just be F
  • 6:10
  • Frank uh be careful with that stuff on
  • 6:13
  • top of that they got a demand problem
  • 6:14
  • over there and so so why we why are we
  • 6:16
  • talking about like like I'll keep going
  • 6:17
  • through this stuff but why are we
  • 6:18
  • talking about is because much of Elon
  • 6:20
  • musk's wealth is based on the price of
  • 6:23
  • Tesla stock like it connects to
  • 6:25
  • everything to buy Twitter he had to sell
  • 6:26
  • some stock but he couldn't sell like all
  • 6:28
  • of it and in fact
  • 6:30
  • what you had to do they had to borrow
  • 6:31
  • money to buy um to buy Twitter right and
  • 6:34
  • it's interesting because like a lot of
  • 6:35
  • people think like you know this guy
  • 6:36
  • what's he's the richest guy in the world
  • 6:37
  • why is he borrow money no the guy
  • 6:39
  • actually they has debt right I mean
  • 6:41
  • that's why they're they're they're
  • 6:42
  • selling his debt around they're even
  • 6:43
  • selling it at a loss uh the loan the the
  • 6:46
  • the loan interest rate is kind of
  • 6:47
  • interesting I think it's 11% which is
  • 6:49
  • kind of crazy when you talk about like
  • 6:51
  • these big numbers I think it might have
  • 6:52
  • been 13 billion dollar loan or something
  • 6:54
  • of that nature so you're paying like a
  • 6:55
  • billy a billion a month or something
  • 6:57
  • like crazy like that um and then on top

  • 7:00
  • of that if your wealth is based on the
  • 7:01
  • stock um you're borrowing money be it
  • 7:03
  • lines of credit or loans based on the
  • 7:05
  • stock but the stock can like functua
  • 7:07
  • like like crazy right so who keeps
  • 7:08
  • propping the guy up when sales are are
  • 7:10
  • clearly falling right you can see it uh
  • 7:13
  • and you're just ticking people off plus
  • 7:14
  • your products are unsafe so you have
  • 7:16
  • that like for example here you got a
  • 7:17
  • problem real problem with cybertruck
  • 7:19
  • Tesla dropped cybertruck lease price
  • 7:21
  • dramatically offers free WP so I guess
  • 7:23
  • if you want a cyber truck now it's like
  • 7:25
  • 749 a month um and we we'll see if they
  • 7:28
  • just like have to just give these things
  • 7:29
  • away um this guy's got lawsuits always
  • 7:32
  • up the wazo um he's uh threatening or
  • 7:35
  • actually I should say he added more
  • 7:37
  • companies I did a video on this it's
  • 7:39
  • hard to keep track of ref Frank I I um
  • 7:41
  • he added more companies to the lawsuit
  • 7:44
  • uh he's saying hey you can't you're not
  • 7:46
  • suing on my you know xplatform therefore
  • 7:48
  • I sue you and like Nestle was added to
  • 7:50
  • list and Legos was added um uh I think
  • 7:54
  • it was like Colgate motive was added it
  • 7:56
  • was it was a bunch of things um you also
  • 7:58
  • have this one this was an interesting

  • 8:00
  • one musk moves to dismiss suit over
  • 8:02
  • Tesla's alleged use of AI generated
  • 8:04
  • blade Rider imagery that was back in
  • 8:06
  • their um presentation when they
  • 8:08
  • announced their their humanoid robot
  • 8:10
  • stuff like like they use this kind of
  • 8:11
  • picture right which is looks like Blade
  • 8:13
  • Runner to me and that's the second Blade
  • 8:15
  • Runner movie um and then the um the
  • 8:17
  • Creator movie was like yo you you stole
  • 8:19
  • my crap stop doing it uh on top of that
  • 8:22
  • now this this was the news UPS today uh
  • 8:24
  • is they're they're trying to sell the
  • 8:26
  • rest of the X debt so I guess this was
  • 8:28
  • just part of it uh 5.5 billion I think
  • 8:31
  • there's six billion still on the on the
  • 8:33
  • books let me read this it says here
  • 8:35
  • there's still more work to do the loans
  • 8:37
  • bought by investors are among the senior
  • 8:39
  • most credits the bank still hold some
  • 8:42
  • six billion of x's debt some of which is
  • 8:44
  • considered even riskier than what was
  • 8:45
  • sold this week and and it was
  • 8:47
  • interesting when when you read through
  • 8:48
  • this stuff so basically Lisa Yaro uh
  • 8:51
  • she's got to go around and in my opinion
  • 8:54
  • basically lie her teeth off and say oh
  • 8:56
  • yeah AI is going to be awesome and you
  • 8:59
  • know X has a little bit of stuff with

  • 9:02
  • that xai which is you know musk is is is
  • 9:04
  • pumping up the valuation of that thing
  • 9:06
  • to raise money for said thing right and
  • 9:08
  • then he has to talk about how awesome
  • 9:09
  • xai is and so people who are investing
  • 9:12
  • in X now um you're saying okay musk is
  • 9:14
  • going to you know and team are going to
  • 9:16
  • owe you money you're going to get 11% uh
  • 9:18
  • you know interest rate on this stuff uh
  • 9:20
  • so yeah it's great and then wal's like
  • 9:22
  • dumping it out a loss they got to get
  • 9:24
  • off their books um it was actually uh
  • 9:26
  • the the loans they had were actually
  • 9:28
  • marked down a lot more before um but
  • 9:31
  • during the Trump stuff they're saying
  • 9:33
  • hey advertisers are coming back Amazon
  • 9:35
  • to be fair to them Amazon did come back
  • 9:37
  • but it's interesting because you see
  • 9:39
  • Jeff Bezos hanging out with Trump and
  • 9:42
  • mus together they're all inauguration
  • 9:44
  • and so is there some sort of deals made
  • 9:45
  • behind the scenes regarding Amazon I I
  • 9:48
  • that I don't know I don't know I I can
  • 9:49
  • see them together but there there my
  • 9:51
  • guess there's got to be some sort of
  • 9:53
  • agreements there of like why is Amazon
  • 9:54
  • suddenly you know advertising on X and
  • 9:57
  • then also before there could be any on
  • 9:59
  • any number of foreign monies popping

  • 10:01
  • this stuff up uh so Wall Street they did
  • 10:03
  • sell the loans um they sold it it says
  • 10:06
  • here in the end investors including so
  • 10:09
  • this not all of them it just says
  • 10:10
  • including Pimco and Citadel agreed to
  • 10:13
  • buy the loans at 97 cents on the dollar
  • 10:15
  • the floating rate debts carry an
  • 10:17
  • interest rate of about 11% with
  • 10:20
  • borrowing costs several percentage above
  • 10:22
  • even the riskiest loans on Wall Street
  • 10:25
  • so I think they're essentially saying
  • 10:27
  • hey we'll dump this at a loss uh we'll
  • 10:29
  • put the rates here but this is actually
  • 10:31
  • relatively High uh I I personally
  • 10:35
  • wouldn't touch this de but that's what
  • 10:37
  • I'm saying is there like foreign money
  • that's propping this up that's okay with
  • taking losses in order to spread your
  • nonsense on on X because I'll give you
  • an example uh musk wants to remove all
  • regulations from everything right so if
  • you do that then suddenly you could take
  • any number of of monies from China or
  • Russia to promote whatever propaganda is
  • on X cuz now actually which is kind of
  • crazy um exate media he he uh just

  • 11:03
  • throws out any kind of you know trumpy
  • stuff all the time and and it's nonsense
  • like it's total nonsense that's sort of
  • why I I show you guys every now and then
  • and anyone that has any sort of you know
  • just logical thinking right you can see
  • right through the stuff that mus says
  • the sad thing about it though here's the
  • sad thing is that there's some people
  • that frankly just I guess turn off their
  • brains because they're part of a cult
  • and they believe the must the stuff that
  • must says so for example this just thing
  • about this logically this is what musk
  • is trying to sell you Elon Musk moves to
  • make Starbase Texas the official Gateway
  • To Mars right he's selling you Mars
  • gateways you're all going to be rich
  • according to musk with humanoid robots
  • maybe five in your house he he pays
  • these you know stock promoters on
  • Twitter Etc pump up their Channel on on
  • YouTube and all of these like you know
  • dudes and their you know mom's basement
  • kind of stuff drinking beer seriously
  • and they they sit around and chat about
  • oh yeah man T is going to be the most
  • valuable company in the world man yeah

  • 12:01
  • he's going to take the the the the the
  • top five you know companies in the world
  • add them up together Tesla's going to be
  • bigger than those combined man yeah and
  • that's actually what Elon said he
  • actually said in the earnings call that
  • there is a path for Tesla to be the most
  • valuable company in the world more than
  • the top five companies in in the world
  • combined and I always stick on that
  • particular point because if he says
  • nonsense like that nonstop what stops
  • them from saying nonsense about
  • everything be it politics be the
  • company's finan an es being his
  • relationships being his kids who knows
  • any number of things that he's making up
  • stuff let alone the video game stuff
  • with which he's lying about he lies
  • about all kinds of stuff and so he's
  • promising you Gateway tomorrow so anyone
  • with any sort of you know just logical
  • thinking you should be able to spot
  • through this BS but there's so many
  • people out there and this is the always
  • the argument they say well they say well
  • Chris you're so dumb Elon must makes
  • money and I like money that's what they
  • say but be careful out there guys
  • there's more life than money and taking
  • money from some random dude on the
  • street corner just because he promises

  • 13:00
  • you riches can get you in trouble or
  • taking some money from some dude saying
  • hey we're all going to Mars be very very
  • careful who you get involved with so
  • want to hear your thoughts on this one
  • thank you for watching and I'll catch
  • you next video
