The accusation was made in a letter to U.S. District Judge Alison Nathan in Manhattan. She presided over a 2018 settlement with the SEC stemming from a series of tweets Musk made about plans to make Tesla a nonpublic company.

2022-02-20 17:00:06 Tesla to build factory in India

Tesla will set up a factory to assemble the Model 3/Y in the Indian state of Karnataka, located in the south of the country. In the meantime, Tesla itself needs to invest more than $600 million in the country in order to start shipping its electric cars without 100% import duties.

Last month, Tesla registered a subsidiary in India with an office in Bangalore, a hub for international technology companies.

No official confirmation has yet been received from Tesla itself. Открыть/Комментировать

2022-02-20 14:00:05 Musk seeks to provide the U.S. government with cars

U.S. President Biden said he is preparing an initiative to replace 600,000 federal government vehicles with electric cars. In his opinion, this would have a positive effect on the economy, as it would help create more jobs, fix supply chain problems in the U.S., and be an excuse to buy electric cars made domestically.

Musk reacted to this tweet and hinted very transparently that Tesla is willing to do such a task. Открыть/Комментировать

2022-02-19 14:00:13 SpaceX Starship's first orbital flight postponed once again

Although SpaceX is ready for the test, bureaucratic hurdles are preventing the launch.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) stated it couldn't meet the previously announced deadline for completing the environmental review for the Boca Chica spaceport and wouldn't do so until March 28.

The problem with the site is that there is a conservation area near it. As test launches at the spaceport in Texas expand, the scale of the environmental impact grows and needs to be peer-reviewed. Открыть/Комментировать
