There's not really any news in that article.
Notably, Musk said he would be stepping back from DOGE after May but didn’t go into any detail about what that would mean. Even though he said he would be easing up on his involvement, the billionaire said that he would remain in the government through President Trump’s entire term,
This is meaningless.
And do you know how to know it is meaningless... it starts with "musk said". Everything after that is worthless.
Even the word "notably" before that is useless. Notably something un-notable occurred. Great, thanks.
stepping back from DOGE after May
Appointed temporary government employee which means he only could work until June without congressional approval. Set this up from the start to take heat off of Trump and allow Trump to seem reasonable compared to Musk when Trump 'fires' him in June.
I'm aware of that, but obviously the concept of "work" doesn't apply to Musk as it does to government employees generally.
He will have the same influence and whatever level of involvement he wants regardless of whether he's a temporary government employee, a consultant, or just a contact.

"Oh no! The consequences of my actions!"
Nah fuck this guy. We need to make Nazis unforgivable again. None of this halfway bullshit or trying to see their side of the story.
He will never feel any external consequences.
Best we can hope for is a bout of depression that'll make him do something we all won't regret.
I want him to lose it so badly that he starts blaming this administration for everything that happened to him and starts going off against them. That'd be hilarious.
I wonder how many people will have to die for Elon's self driving taxi Hubris in Austin for Texas to pull authorization. As I understand it, the Texas state government hates the City and Its residents. I expect it to be atleast a 9/11s worth.
Ketamine wearing off. time for another hit
Well, that really is uplifting news. For me that is, not for that fuckhead.
Maybe he'll hit that threshold, and his kids he never sees will get a ton of money. Wouldn't that be something
..it brings on many changes...
It's a start but we can do better, guys
Oh no, please don't hang yourself Mr Elmo, that would be such a waste of good rope.
Yes, but on the other hand, he would create a new national holiday

He’s leaving Trumps team to spend more time at Tesla. The one thing that would benefit Tesla is him spending less time there.
The board should have replaced him a long time ago
It's refreshing to see a major publication just flatly stating that he's a fascist.
Well, his parents are genuine, Bona Fide Nazis who wanted to move to apartheid South Africa from Canada.

Good for him!
Darn, too bad he isn't depressed enoigh to drive one of his Teslas into a swimming pool.
Hell the Tesla could do it for him if the stories about it's autopilot are true.

Oscar, big cigar, Elon Musk can't sell a car.
You are a piece of shit and now everyone in the entire world knows it. There's no coming back.
With all that money and influence you had the chance to make a real difference but instead you decided to be a greedy disgusting fuck.
No one gives a shit about you. Go to Mars and live out your pathetic existence.

Finally! Someone talks about profits instead of stock price!
Building a business and getting involved in politics is financial suicide 99% of the time. It's one thing to work behind the scenes but to be the poster boy is just reckless. It is a tragic situation because Tesla was the only EV company in competition with the Chinese and now the Chinese will dominate global EV sales.
Those with Ketamine OD on their bingo cards are getting excited.
