As Elon Musk continues to struggle — with Tesla under investigation by the SEC following  his tweet that it might go private after “funding secured ,” among several other self-inflicted wounds — employees tell The Post that the company is in turmoil. “Elon talks about being a socialist and doing good for mankind — unless you work for them,” says one source. “It’s a s–t show.” Musk is walking a razor wire, another source says, between the things he’s promising and the things he can actually deliver. Until recently, Tesla investors and employees bought into Musk’s vision, even though Musk was “saying things that don’t make sense because he’s accomplished so much.” That core belief may be eroding. Last August,  the Wall Street Journal published an exposé  about the deep divide between the Tesla engineers working on self-driving cars and Musk’s pronouncements about deadlines and capabilities. At least 14 people had already resigned, and the electric car maker continues to suffer

In theory, the feud between rapper Azealia Banks and tech titan Elon Musk should be a fantastic summer drama. Earlier this month, Banks spun a tale of a weekend spent stranded at Musk’s house, where instead of collaborating with his girlfriend (at the time, and maybe still— it’s unclear ), the musician Grimes, as Banks had planned, she was trapped in what she called a real-world version of  Get Out , complete with tales of Musk regretting tweeting while on acid (she alleged) and making freaked-out phone calls to financers (she also alleged). After a few days’ respite, Banks is back to spilling details of her travails with Grusk: This week she  revealed some texts  between herself and Grimes where the two contemplate getting pregnant at the same time, and Banks declares herself “a very fierce protector of children [who] can see them in the invisible world.” She  has also now a

Millions of followers just woke up to the startling prospect of life without Elon Musk Instagram updates. That means no scenes from a Jerusalem speakeasy. No “motherf%^$# mashed potato” captions. No previews of SpaceX spacesuits. And they can forget about those candid date-night shots. Perhaps the Tesla TSLA, +3.94%  boss is taking the next step toward minimizing his mercurial social presence by shutting down his popular Insta account. After all, he shuttered some of his companies’ Facebook pages earlier this year, saying Facebook FB, +0.44% which owns Instagram, gave him “the willies.” The timing, however, has some tongues on the internet wagging. The vanishing of his account comes amid unfolding drama involving Musk, the musician Grimes, who has been dating Musk, and rapper Azealia Banks. It started last week when Banks said she’d been hanging out at Musk’s house and,  according to Business Insider , she overheard him “scrounging for investors” after  his infamous “fundi
