Monthly reminder that Elon Musk is an illegal immigrant
Monthly reminder that Elon Musk is an illegal immigrant
Musk called his immigration status a 'gray area' while discussing the 1990s.

The reason this is relevant is because he has spent the better part of a year complaining about “illegal immigrants” who are “invading” the country. But an old video from 2013 resurfaced on Saturday that appears to show the billionaire admitting he was at one point building his small business in the country illegally, describing it as a “gray area.”
“In fact, when they did fund us, they realized that we were illegal immigrants,” Kimball says in the video.
“Well, I mean…” Elon says.
“Yes, we were,” Kimbal replies.
“I’d say it was a gray area,” Elon insists as the crowd laughs.
“We were illegal immigrants…” Kimbal says, continuing his story about how they were sleeping in an office when raising money from venture capitalists.
…Those on student visas also have to follow strict rules when working in the country. Even those on an H-1B visa, which allows people to work in the U.S. legally, are prohibited from earning money outside their primary employer of record.
meaning if he lied on his immigration paperwork (probable) his naturalized status
canshould be revoked.then deported and denied re-entry forever.
that would be SOP if he didn't buy a presidency.
(and, since is fortune was made while committing federal crimes, perhaps he should leave that behind with the treasury department).
Detain, Deport, Dispose, Musk
Important not to tar all illegal immigrants with the same brush, while some are soulless freeloading morons with terrible taste, most of them aren’t Elon.
Also a massive yobber
