A Bluesky post featuring a link to BBC News. The thumbnail is a photo of a burning Cybertruck. The headline reads "Elon Musk sent to Guantanamo after his Cybertruck explods outside White House". The lede says "Tesla stock jumps 250% on news that Musk would be unable to run the company from his cell".
