Tesla and Elon Musk have made a powerful statement by committing over $3 billion to a new research factory in Texas, fully embracing America First principles.

   This massive investment in innovation and manufacturing on American soil showcases the kind of bold, private-sector leadership that drives real economic growth and technological superiority. Texas continues to attract visionary entrepreneurs who value freedom, low taxes, and limited government over the failing policies of high-regulation states. This move signals a clear alignment with the MAGA vision of rebuilding American industry and securing our technological edge against global competitors. Musk’s decision to pour resources into the Lone Star State reinforces the strength of pro-business environments that reward hard work and ingenuity rather than punish success. It stands in stark contrast to the regulatory warfare and hostility toward achievement seen in liberal strongholds. Under President Trump’s leadership, policies that unleash American enterprise are delivering results, drawing investment and talent back to our nation. This development strengthens our economy, creates high-quality jobs, and bolsters national security through domestic innovation  ----May be an image of text that says 'C ·· BOOM! TESLA AND ELON MUSK JUST WENT FULL MAGA AND INVESTED OVER $3 BILLION ON A RESEARCH FACTORY IN TEXAS!'

Elon First! The guy who destroyed over 100,000 American jobs!

It's easy for Texas to subsidize billionaires because they are using other people's money, from blue states, to pay their bills. 

And what a lot of these businesses are discovering is that it is hard to attract the top young talent because the top young talent doesn't wanna live in Texas because of the oppressive laws targeting their personal life.  The fact of the matter is Texas isn't safe for women of childbearing age.

 

Tesla is failing as an automaker right now. They built massive factories and spent billions to develop the cyber truck.  They built infrastructure based upon selling 500,000 units a year and they can't even sell 50k units a year. It was an epic failure one of the biggest in automotive history.

 

Their other models are old designs based on a very old

platform. Other EV makers are leaving them in the dust. They never have been able match the fit and finish of the legacy automakers. Elon had to buy an insurance company because nobody wanted to insure Teslas because the repair costs are so high.
