“There Will Be Blood”: Elon Musk Says He Is Looking For Lawyers To Start A “Hardcore Litigation Department”

Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, tweeted out on Friday that he is putting together a “hardcore litigation department” and is “looking for hardcore street fighters” for his team.

Musk said his commitment is:

“We will never seek victory in a just case against us, even if we will probably win.

She alleges that Musk exposed himself to her and also offered to buy her a horse in exchange for an erotic massage.

Musk told Insider that “there is a lot more to this story.” He also added that this is a “politically motivated hit piece.”

This allegation against Musk came soon after his announcement that he would be voting Republican in the coming election.

He made this statement on an episode of the All-In Podcast. Musk said on the show, “I have voted overwhelmingly for Democrats, historically – overwhelmingly. Like I’m not sure, I might never have voted for a Republican, just to be clear. Now this election, I will.”

Musk is also still involved in the acquisition of Twitter, which has currently been put on hold after finding out that there is a bot/spam problem. His $44 billion offer is now on hold.

He said in a tweet that “they began brewing attacks of all kinds as soon as the Twitter acquisition was announced. In my 30 year career, including the entire MeToo era, there’s nothing to report, but, as soon as I say I intend to restore free speech to Twitter & vote Republican, suddenly there is…”
