"We will coup whoever we want! Deal with it."

~Elon Musk, Twitter, July 25, 2020

Jordan Chariton covered a protest in New York City where demonstrators took over a Tesla Showroom to show their disdain (several of them getting arrested as a result).

Jordan talked with several protesters, one of whom was a U.S. veteran who served in the Gulf War in the Middle East.

During his service, he was told that he and his fellow Navy sailors were really fighting to steal other countries oil.

"I had an admiral tell my ship when we were in the Middle East in 1994 'you boys want to know why we're here, we're here for oil.," the veteran told Chariton.
