The access would be a major expansion of Elon Musk’s government role and highlight his conflicts of interest.

The Pentagon is scheduled on Friday to brief Elon Musk on the U.S. military’s plan for any war that might break out with China, two U.S. officials said on Thursday.

Another official said the briefing will be China focused, without providing additional details. A fourth official confirmed Mr. Musk was to be at the Pentagon on Friday, but offered no details.

    If war with China happens I am 100% defecting to China lol. I have absolutely zero love or respect for my shithole country.

      I’d like to caution against percieving the grass as being greener.

      The US is being a shitbird, but do not let that cloud criticism of other countries- their governments are (usually) rarely better.

      And nobody treats turncoats particularly well, especially if they don’t offer concrete and immediate value beyond ‘hostage’.

      Far better to agitate where you’re at- help your neighbors where and how you can and demonstrate how they’re being lied to.
