after what US has done tariff wise I'm surprised that they haven't blocked all US companies from it.

Option 1: Tesla fraudulently filed rebates
Option 2: Tesla filed a backlog of rebates when they realized they had to
Both are possible, but everyone is jumping to conclusion that it's option 1, while option 2 is the easier answer.
Also the government said they're going to let all the other rebates that this pushed out at the last minute get the rebate regardless of if these were legit or not.
Maybe they shouldn't have kept a backlog then? That certainly sounds like a 'them' problem though, doesn't it?
Doesn't strike me as very efficient either

Option 2 should be easy to prove, so why didn’t they do that already, like literally the same day they were accused of it? Then their funds wouldn’t have been frozen.

Canadians taking on the Nazis they should send canned food to tesla next.
Put local parasites in prison...
Claw back all the payments
Hopefully, this amounts to a fraud investigation and shareholders dump their stocks and cause Musk to fall below the margin call and then he liquidates and Tesla goes to rock bottom.
Doesn't he only own like 13% of the stock in Tesla? His wealth is barely affected by Tesla going bankrupt

Bankruptcy! Woo!
Jail time would be even better.
Hope so. They’ve been trying to undermine the Swedish job market here, and even fucking stalked their employees. Horrible company.
Wait what? Can we give more details? What do you mean by stalked?
Idk about Sweden, but in Germany middle management visited sick employees at their homes to check whether they were really sick.

Holy fuck. I'm sorry, if I take a sick day I take a sick day - you might see me out shopping for groceries to survive the day, but I am by no means well.
