Tuesday Cartoons

My daughter had her EEG yesterday, her she is in the waiting room right before the test. You can see the concern and worry in her face. I hope the results come in soon.

This will be a quick post. Cartoons are from Cagle:

A few other observations:

Be safe. Enjoy the day.

    “Tesla earnings plunge as Elon Musk hits firestorm of controversy

    The electric vehicle manufacturer’s net income was down 71 percent in the first quarter from a year earlier amid protests and tariff threats.

    Tesla’s quarterly earnings plunged by 71 percent compared to the first quarter of 2024, the company announced Tuesday, abruising result that comes amid widespread backlash against CEO Elon Musk and his work with the Trump administration.

    Tesla was already struggling before Musk enmeshed himself in GOP politics last year. Since President Donald Trump’s inauguration he has almost entirely shifted his focus to running the U.S. DOGE Service. DOGE stands for the Department of Government Efficiency and is aggressively pursuing aninitiative meant to reduce “waste, fraud and abuse” in the federal government.

    A combination of increased competition from Chinese electric carmakers such as BYD, uncertainty around Trump’s tariffs and Musk’s declining popularity has pushed the company into turmoil.

    Tesla owners are trading in their vehicles at an increasing rate; prices for used Teslas have sunk; and widespread protests against the brand have erupted around the world. Vandals have also targeted the company’s dealerships, charging stations and vehicles with molotov cocktails, gunshots and arson.”

    “WSJ: The S&P 500’s performance since Inauguration Day is now the worst for any president up to this point in data going back to 1928, according to Bespoke Investment Group.”

    This is really serious. That’s an index that reliably calls recessions/depressions
