Someone has to say it: Elon Musk has lied for 27 years about his credentials. He does not have a BS in Physics, or any technical field. Did not get into a PhD program. Dropped out in 1995 & was illegal. Later, investors quietly arranged a diploma - but not in science. 🧵1/
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The University of Pennsylvania considers Musk to be a graduate of both the economics department and the physics department. "Elon Musk earned a B.A. in physics and a B.S. in economics from the University of Pennsylvania. The degrees were awarded on May 19, 1997." -Penn, 2019 snopes.com/fact-check/mus…

BREAKING: Video game testers at Raven Software/Activision Blizzard have won their landmark union election, 19-3. Despite a relentless union-busting campaign, Raven's quality assurance testers have formed the first union at a major U.S. gaming studio.
NEW: Workers who test video games like Call of Duty for Raven Software/Activision Blizzard are demanding an end to exploitation. They work 14 hours/day for poverty wages. Some are on food stamps & have vision damage. Now they’re unionizing & it could revolutionize the industry.

Let's be clear, wealthy women will always have access to whatever doctors, medicines and procedures that they want. Ending Roe is an attack on the autonomy of poor and working class women.

If Republicans cared about minimizing abortions and protecting fetuses, they would support access to contraception and subsidize prenatal healthcare. They don’t do these things because the real goal is controlling women’s bodies and punishing them for casual sex.
