Ah, but I would bet my bottom dollar that a quick trip to the SCOTUS will prevent states from filing suit, as they lack standing. This is Federal Government all the way.
You might be right, Geoff, but perhaps not. Anybody who had their data scraped resides in a state, and a clever AG could file state criminal charges against Musk and his team of off ducks. But mostly the civil tort system will have to break this coup d'etah--sue him out of existence.
Trump can't pardon state criminal arrests or any civil suits. Best to go after Musk in those two ways.
Beat me to it. Has to be State charges. I'm sure the NY FBI Division Head can work out something with Leticia James.
Absolutely!
Oh, I think you're remembering how our laws used to work. There are no rules now. trump will do whatever he wants and no one will stop him. :(

Nope, the States aren 't going to save us.
