    Elon Musk appears to have a favorite judge: Federalist Society member Reed O’Connor in Fort Worth. He’s presiding over two major Musk cases, even though none of the parties are based in Texas. Records show O’Connor is a Tesla investor.

    Wow I've never seen this before at a sentencing hearing: Botham Jean's brother asked the judge if he can hug Amber Guyger after a jury sentenced her to 10 years in state prison for killing his brother. He said he forgave her and they embraced as sobs rang out in the courtroom

    Tesla, which has received billions of dollars in government subsidies over the years, does not appear to have the label.

    NEW: Judge Reed O'Connor has recused himself from one of Elon Musk's lawsuits, against the coalition of advertisers. This comes after NPR reported on Reed's investment in Tesla and Musk's forum-shopping by filing in Reed's district, where none of the parties are based.

    $400M of Teslas for State Department? Trump admin said it started in Biden White House. I obtained a doc showing the amount Biden's State Department planned to spend on EVs: $483,000. Former WH official on $400M: "I don’t think this is a clerical error"

    Wow: Twitter's new ToS says all disputes will be heard in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas located in Tarrant County (Tesla investor Reed O'Connor's court) Truly remarkable, considering Twitter's new HQ is NOT in this district, but in western Texas.
