This socialist revenge porn from The Other 98% appears to be a made up narrative about a criminal act. Note: the following bust is not definitively corroborated and comes from unnamed sources, but is far more credible than the meme which rests on no evidence.
▪️This incident happened nearly 3 years ago at a trucking lot near Chicago. The driver was allegedly hired remotely just 4 days prior to the incident and had only completed one load before issues rose about his behavior.
▪️ Stories differ between him failing a drug test and being irrationally upset that he wasn’t driving a new truck, but whatever the reason the driver was summoned to be fired in person.
▪️Eyewitness sources say the owner offered to pay him for all his miles, reimburse for the items he bought like a mattress & trash can to outfit his truck, and even a plane ticket to get back home.
▪️The driver refused the accommodations and wanted to remain employed. But the owner insisted on termination and an argument ensued. The driver then allegedly asked if the Ferrari GTC4Lusso was the owner's.
▪️When confirmed, the trucker allegedly replied "Now you'll see what happens when you fuck with me," then ran towards an empty rig (not his), started it up and ran over the Ferrari.
▪️A source said the owner gave chase and was nearly run over by the truck. The police were then called and litigation allegedly proceeded. According to multiple trucker posts on FB, the company pays its truckers fairly and on time fwiw.

▪️I was unable to find any reports since May 2020. Keep in mind, this was during the height of Covid hysteria which might help explain the remote hiring and crazy behavior.
It’s bizarre to see them seesaw back and forth that Trump is totally clueless and aloof, just golfing all day, then all of a sudden he’s a dangerous king/dictator who’s diligently plotting to seize absolute power.
▪️This one is frustrating because, while it’s nice to see the vigor and speed that DOGE is acting with, they’re also sloppy with some of their findings. This is not some bombshell, millions of dead people’s SS numbers aren’t being paid out to fraudsters.
▪️This problem has been known for some time, you can read an inspector general’s report from 2015 about millions of names on the SS “numident” not being correctly annotated for deaths, even though they were older than 112 (the oldest known American at the time).

▪️There are innocent explanations for some of these. Expatriates that died outside the country, for example. Or immigrants given temporary work permit who returned to their country, people issued new numbers for various reasons, etc. However, most are simply due to the govt not diligently keeping track of deaths.
