When I worked on the Kerry campaign, an aide told me his wife Teresa bought a castle in Europe and had it flown over and rebuilt brick-by-brick on their estate in Montana and I think about that story a lot when I'm drinking out of a paper straw to reduce my carbon footprint

Yeah, and Dr. Fishbones is an idiot like all the other X posters you repost here.

"No, John Kerry does not own a castle in Montana. However, this is a common mix-up often fueled by two specific facts: his education and his actual property in Idaho.
The Source of the Confusion
The "Montana" connection usually stems from Institut Montana Zugerberg, a prestigious international boarding school in Switzerland that Kerry attended as a boy in the 1950s. The school is housed in grand, historic buildings (including a former 19th-century hotel) that sit atop a hill and can easily be mistaken for a "castle" in photos.


His Real Properties
While he doesn't have a castle in the Treasure State, Kerry and his wife, Teresa Heinz Kerry, are known for their impressive real estate portfolio, which has included:

• The "Reassembled" Idaho Barn: They own a famous home in Ketchum, Idaho (near Sun Valley). It isn't a castle, but it is a massive, historic structure: a 15th-century barn originally built in England, dismantled, shipped to the U.S., and reassembled.
  
  
• The Boston Townhouse: A historic five-story home in the posh Beacon Hill neighborhood.
  
  
• Martha's Vineyard: A large waterfront estate in Massachusetts.
  
  

Summary
If you see photos of John Kerry associated with a "castle" and the name "Montana," you are likely looking at his Swiss boarding school. If you are thinking of his massive, rustic mountain retreat, that is located in Idaho."

Too bad Fishy didn't marry an heir from the Heinz fortune. He should get out of the basement.

Elon has engaged in more fraud and crimes than just about anyone on the planet though.

Feel free to support this claim with evidence

I'm glad you asked Mr. Teach, digest this:

"While he has frequently emerged victorious in court, there is a substantial record of legal actions, settlements, and recent jury verdicts that critics point to as evidence of misconduct related to securities fraud, market manipulation, and transparency violations.


Here is a breakdown of the primary legal challenges and findings used to support such claims:
1. The Twitter Acquisition Misconduct (20222026)
This has been the most significant area of recent legal liability for Musk.

• Delayed SEC Filings: In January 2025, the SEC sued Musk for failing to disclose his purchase of over 5% of Twitter stock within the legally required timeframe. The SEC alleged that by staying silent, Musk was able to buy more shares at a lower price, "underpaying" by at least $150 million at the expense of unsuspecting sellers.
  
  
• Securities Fraud Verdict (March 2026): In a major civil trial in San Francisco, a jury found Musk liable for securities fraud. They determined he misled investors by tweeting that the Twitter deal was "temporarily on hold" and "cannot move forward" without more bot data. These statements were found to be materially misleading, causing shareholders who sold during that period to lose money. The jury awarded damages estimated at $2.1 billion.
  
  
  

2. The "Funding Secured" Case (2018)
This is the most famous instance of alleged fraud regarding Tesla.

• The Tweet: In 2018, Musk tweeted he was considering taking Tesla private at $420 per share and had "funding secured."
  
  
• The SEC Charge: The SEC charged him with securities fraud, arguing he knew the funding was not actually secured.
• The Settlement: Musk and Tesla each paid $20 million in fines. Musk was forced to step down as Chairman for three years and agreed to have his tweets pre-approved by "Twitter sitters" (legal counsel). He did not admit to or deny the allegations as part of the settlement.
  
  
• Shareholder Lawsuit: In a separate 2023 civil trial, a jury found Musk not liable for defrauding investors in this specific instance, though shareholders are currently appealing that decision.

3. Other Legal & Ethical Allegations

• The "Unlawful Lottery" (2024): During the 2024 U.S. election, Musk and his America PAC were sued for operating a $1 million daily giveaway. Critics and state officials alleged this was an "unlawful lottery" used to influence voters.
  
  
• Workplace & Personal Conduct: Musk has faced numerous lawsuits alleging a "toxic" culture at SpaceX and Tesla, including allegations of sexual harassment and racial discrimination. In 2024, The Wall Street Journal detailed allegations of inappropriate relationships with subordinates at SpaceX.
  
  
• The "Pedo Guy" Defamation: In 2019, Musk was sued for defamation after calling a British cave diver a "pedo guy" on Twitter. Musk won this case, arguing it was a common South African insult and not a statement of fact.

While Musk's supporters argue his "free-wheeling" style is just a byproduct of his genius, legal authorities have increasingly characterized his public statements as manipulative tools that violate the protections of the public market."

I gave you pretty long damn list. Pretty much more than anyone else on the planet, Teach, you got the evidence that tracks that you requested.

I get an A on the homework , Teach.

See Epstein thread. My understanding is the Trump administration arrested Epstein.

Ok, I'm actually speechless here...

Elon Musk fought against SEC bureaucrats who tried to muzzle him. In 2018, he settled their bogus "funding secured" civil case for $20 million personally (no admission of guilt) to protect Tesla from collapse when banks had a gun to its head by threatening to cut off capital. He later called it out publicly, saying he was "forced to concede unlawfully" and that those "*******s" railroaded him just to save the company. Classic example of weaponized government targeting a true innovator.

LOL, you are the equivalent of Karoline Leavitt for this guy

What a place to be in.

Those are out there Tenner, lol

Elon is pond scum

I guess you prefer slacker stoners?

Cali Train to Nowhere now $231 Billion, doesn't include financing costs, and any estimates of getting into downtown LA and San Francisco are pipe dreams.

Brown - Newsom fiasco, worst White Elephant ever?

Even more sad, tye Libs which just pine for the days when a Democrat Socialist is in the WH to throw more money at it, more Green Scam shakedown money, and Central Valley Latino laborers aren't spending $100 on a ticket from Fresno to Modesto.

The cost of High-Speed Rail is now estimated at $231 billion. Our country has never seen a fiscal disaster of this magnitude. https://t.co/wSnlA7gafk

I posted all the things that Newsom has done great, how dare you call him a slacker stoner? How did we know you aren't one?

We've likely never had a fiscal and operational disaster as big as DOGE. Oh yeah, that was Elon.

Did it cut the deficit? Did you get a DOGE check?

How much has Elon grifted for Tesla from the government? How many illegitimate kids does he have?

Straight fraud

Choose Kindness and get a grip
