Trump advisor and world’s richest man Elon Musk threw a wrench into the much-ballyhooed gears of Trump’s AI infrastructure plans, insisting that billionaire investors in the project called Stargate — who stood next to Trump in an announcement this week — “don’t actually have the money.”
During a Tuesday afternoon press conference in the White House, President Donald Trump was joined by Masayoshi Son of SoftBank, Sam Altman of OpenAI, and Larry Ellison of Oracle to announce the project. The assembled chief executives all gave credit to the president for making the project possible, even though the project began under former President Joe Biden in 2024, and construction of the massive building in Texas set to house it has already started.
I kinda hope Trump deports Elon.
Once again, President Musk sets the record straight. You gotta teach that puppy to heel my dude.
Of course, until Amazon sues him over the rights to the name “Stargate”
They won’t do that. They should, but they won’t.
Wait, Amazon owns that now?
They got it when they bought MGM Studios
I didn’t even know they bought MGM, I learned a lot in just a couple comments.
Larry Ellison is personally worth $200 Billion. OpenAI is backed by Microsoft with a $3.2 Trillion market cap.
I bet Musk does not remember what Putin did to Khodorkovsky.

That would be fun to watch.
Translation: “We’d rather have the American people pay us for it with tax dollars so we can raid the treasury.”
