Summary
Members of Elon Musk’s private security team have been deputized by the U.S. Marshals Service, granting them federal law enforcement privileges.
The move follows heightened security concerns and death threats against Musk.
While the Marshals Service routinely deputizes officers, deputizing private security is highly unusual.
The extent of their authority remains unclear, but they may carry weapons and make arrests.
Not a good look… private police? What the fuck is this nonsense… Ayn Rand libertarian fanfiction?
I don’t think Ayn Rand would have supported this bullshit. The talentless “businessmen” who wear the trappings of wealth but produce nothing were always the villains in her books. Plus she was vehemently anti-theocracy.
death threats against Musk.
STOP THREATENING!!!
Only a matter of time before they start randomly shooting people who they don’t like the look of.
I thought we were already well past that point.
The Muskapo
Musk-eteers
Boooo
But only because I love the movie, the Three Musketeers
It does add a different interpretation to: “All for one” [… and we can skip the rest of the quote]
Just wait untill the new FBI starts going after lawyers and the media like the new head has promised:
oh, wearing your child around your vital organs doesn’t seem like enough of a bullet stopper anymore?
Elon trusts his private security? If I was as public a dipshit as him, I certainly wouldn’t pay people to be armed around me.
