So apparently Alameda county doesn’t think Tesla should reopen until June 1

Tesla is filing a lawsuit against Alameda County immediately. The unelected & ignorant “Interim Health Officer” of Alameda is acting contrary to the Governor, the President, our Constitutional freedoms & just plain common sense!

Frankly, this is the final straw. Tesla will now move its HQ and future programs to Texas/Nevada immediately. If we even retain Fremont manufacturing activity at all, it will be dependen on how Tesla is treated in the future. Tesla is the last carmaker left in CA.

As California resident, I see where he is coming from but come on....Elon is such a cry baby bitch. He has crossed over the line of genius to fricking nuts.

On Twitter, Governor Abbott responded with a pair of eyes.

He’s been itching to relocate to Austin. Let’s see how much tax money he can squeeze out of both states.

I like businesses moving to Texas but I don’t like liberal Californians moving to Texas.

Lot of empty space about to be available at Hawthorne airport where Tesla and SpaceX are.

This is just silly.

He can’t afford to move headquarters. Their financials still don’t seem strong to me. They’ve only recently started naming a profit after years of bad earnings. Their free cash flow is like 5,000,000 and their total net income is like 80,000,000. Not enough money to make a move. Tesla is a public company now. He can’t do whatever he wants

One odd point about Musk's rant is that he's suing Alameda County for the shutdown of the factory, and he's threatening to move Tesla HQ to another state. But Tesla HQ is in Palo Alto, in Santa Clara County, so moving HQ doesn't punish Alameda County. But moving HQ would be much easier to do than moving a factory.
