If you think the US government is revoking the citizenship of a billionaire I have a bridge to sell you
It wouldn't happen, but theoretically if it did it could be hilarious.
The US doesn't look kindly on people who lied on official documents. Mostly this affects people who once came into the country illegally or overstayed their visas. That makes it nearly impossible for them to get citizenship later. So, if Musk had his citizenship stripped, he could be in a position where he could never get it back.
Additionally, the US has an exit tax for citizens who want to renounce their citizenship. That includes taxes on "Assets that haven’t been taxed yet but would be in the future, such as capital gains on stocks or funds in retirement accounts". So, if they hit him with that after stripping him of his citizenship, they could tax the hundreds of billions of unrealized gains in his various companies.
I agree that it's not going to happen unless something dramatically changes, but if it did it would be epic.
How much are you asking?
I don't think Musk is losing his citizenship, I'm just curious about that bridge.
Why buy the bridge when you could buy a Senator for less?
About tree fiddy
That's what I expected. Damn you Loch Ness monster.
Realistically probably can seize starlink as 90% of it is tax dollars anyways and it has government (military) contracts
Musk has posted around 1,300 times on X this year about immigration and voter fraud.
Yeesh. And that's just a couple topics. He knows he has other companies too, right?
And to be clear, posting on X is in no way related to leadership duties at X.
Spoiler: Elon doesn't actually do anything. He posts to X an average of every like 20 minutes, literally all day and night. He doesn't have time for anything except low-effort trolling.
That applies to ALL of his companies, Eron Musky is a fraud
Scheduled?
Elmo bot I presume
Conservatives tend to create rage bait around single issues. It's been their tactic throughout history, get people mad about specific things and they will ignore the rest, notice how everything is always blamed on immigrants.
That's an interesting title. Bad things can happen to someone if that someone does something bad...
Welcome to the tautology club.
The first immigrant to be deported and makes nationwide news
Musk Deportation Now!
Probably did, this is the US, money is the solution.
Please, this would be so funny. Pleasepleasepleasepleasepleaseplease
Go back to Africa!
More like off the coast of Africa
The point is, this illegal immigrant needs to go back where he came from. (Any of this sound familiar to anyone else?)
But that would just be cruel to africa
And look... that is how he can be thrown under the bus by the orange parasite.
and that would make him buying voters as a foreign entity a criminal? is he teflon coated by association?
Pfft, he is rich. There is zero percent chance he faces any punishment for anything.
Keep dreaming lmao.
Because that would be unethical and we hold ourselves (even when trolling on alts) to a higher standard.
