Billionaire Elon Musk said Tuesday he will shift the headquarters of privately held SpaceX and social media site X to Texas from California — calling Gov. Gavin Newsom’s decision to sign a new student gender identity law “the final straw.”
The law, signed Monday, blocks school districts from requiring teachers to notify parents about changes in a student’s gender identity or sexual orientation without the child’s permission. It also requires the state’s Department of Education to create resources for families of LGBTQ+ students from seventh grade through high school.
“This is the final straw,” Musk wrote on X. “Because of this law and the many others

Elon, DON'T go to Austin, please???? ANYWHERE but Austin! You would be moving from California to mini-Cal if you go to Austin. Go to Waco, Arlington, Tyler, Longview, Corpus Christi, hell even Luckenbach - ANYWHERE but Austin! That city is worse than LA! (And I mean, Los Angeles, not Louisiana, although that would be correct also, had I meant it.)

Excellent timing, Elon.
You are highlighting how screwed up California is, and at the same time, depriving Gavin of much needed tax revenue. All just before an important election.
Musk is a strong ally for Trump.

Grewsome strikes again and drags California further down the slope. Elon's action should be the only clue that remaining Californians need to call U-Haul and make a reservation.

Time to trade California to China for a dozen egg rolls and one tub each of mustard and sweet sour sauce.
Okay, make it two dozen; it's a big state.

Remember when they couldn't do thing with the child without the parents permission?
Now they have to seek the child's permission
Californicate.

What is going unsaid is that there are numerous "progressive" teachers in public education who strongly support the transgender movement. They notice a somewhat effeminate boy or a somewhat masculine young girl and tell them they must be mistakes--they are meant to be the opposite gender. Then they take steps to facilitate the transition, without bringing the parents into the conversation.

I pray Elon has taken proper steps to avoid being taking out by the Barack HUSSEIN Obama goons in the White House....now that Elon has committed millions to the President Trump campaign...he's more of a threat than before...I pray for him every night...and hope God has His hand on his shoulders...these democrats are vicious people and will stop at nothing...

We are thankful to the Lord we escaped California the summer of 2020. We saw the handwriting on the wall. Our son in the public high school was subject to the LGBTQ indoctrination and its supporters the teachers.
This all started years ago when the CA State Supreme Court over-ruled the vote of the people 55-45 on a petition that supported marriage between a man and woman. A few liberals vetoed the will of millions of Californians on a vote of what a traditional marriage should be called. And a liberal Court stopped it! Courts should be not be legislating from the bench, that is left to the people and their representatives. Who will stop these out of control courts?

Isn't at least one of Elon's kids 'trans', or at least 'gender confused'?
But yeah, like #1, when I first heard he was headed to the Austin area a few months ago, I thought "Why bother moving at all?"

Sorry #1, but having spent half of my working life in Texas, plus my really fun class trip at Lackland AFB in 1961, I always came back to Louisiana. Love Texas and its people, but it just doesn't cut it in the food department.

What matters is CA losing the Tax $$$ thanks to Gav.
