So, Elon Musk will be arrested for skipping court once he re-enters America, right? I am *fairly sure* this is some form of contempt of court.

Of all the people who should have their citizenship stripped, Elon is at the top of that list.
Who let this piece of shit in anyway? Send him back to South Africa.

Sounds like Elon wants a default judgement against him.

Judge should simply dismiss the suit. It would serve musk right.

Silly judge, laws don’t apply to billionaires in America in the year 2026

Elon certainly has gotten cocky despite not wearing one of his kids as a human shield everywhere.

Surely that judge will charge him with contempt and issue a warrant for his arrest! Surely! Shirley!

The US govt is too weak to hold these billionaires responsible. We’re being gaslit that states can’t even tax the millionaires! Happy 250th?

So issue an arrest warrant and put his ass in jail when he gets back.
Why are these judges such fucking cowards?
ProfessorVolga on
Is there not a single judge in this country that is not a fucking coward and willing to make a billionaire face even the slightest consequence? Real question.

I’m struggling with this. How can we have them both loose? Not sure if that is possible but both are horrible.

I hope his famously large gut bursts and he shits himself. Then I hope the judge finds him in contempt and they lock him in a little box.

Where is Bovino when you need him to deport another criminal alien?

Why is musk traveling to China with Drump if he’s not a government official?
cinephileindia2023 on
Pardon my ignorance, but, can we, as citizens, do something about this if he is not arrested for contempt of court after he is back? This is a genuine question.

One can only hope that when he gets off the plane coming back that he’s arrested the second he steps on the jet bridge. Also, fleeing to another country is a great reason for a judge to deny a bond for his release. Why he wasn’t asked to surrender his passport is another red flag.

I’m an attorney. Any judge I appear in front of would hold such a “litigant” in contempt for disobeying an order and a 10 day sentence in jail. As you probably know, justice is not fair.

>Elon Musk traveled to China with President Donald Trump this week, despite his ongoing trial over his lawsuit with OpenAI and a federal judge’s order that he remain at the ready to be recalled to testify at short notice.
While he could be held in contempt, I would find it even funnier if the OpenAI lawyers called him to testify and the judge dismissed Musk’s lawsuit when he didn’t show. Musk won’t even notice the contempt fine, but dismissing the suit will force him to start again against lawyers who already know his allegations.

He knows it will be worse if he doesn’t placate China. The West won’t hold him to account, so he does what he wants.

Not surprising, Elon is a member of the Epstein class and they are above accountability.

Elon belongs in jail and his fortune belongs to us.

When democrats take back power, and **we will**, Elon musk should have his businesses seized by the government and he should be removed from the country as a traitor. Fuck him.

Sounds like good enough reason to deny the case.
Come on Judge, show you have a pair!

So basically he’s taunting the court asking what they’re going to do about it.
So what are we going to do about it? If I left the country while under trial, I’d have my ass thrown in jail. Why does he get a pass?

If it happened to you or me, jail.
