As Tesla Crumbles, Elon Musk Just Fired One of His Top Supporters at the Company
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has fired the automaker's vice president of manufacturing and operations Omead Fashar, Forbes reports, amid plummeting sales and public backlash against the company. Fashar was one of Musk's closest confidants and a powerful executive at the company, according to Bloomberg, which reported that Fashar had departed but didn't say that Musk was behind the personnel change. The exact reason for his departure isn't clear, although one can make an educated guess based on the broader turmoil at Tesla. Fashar was in charge of a team of more than a half-dozen high level employees, CNBC noted while corroborating that Musk was behind the sacking. He joined Tesla in 2017 as an engineer, and was promoted to his position last October to oversee sales and manufacturing in North America and Europe — the two markets where consumer backlash in response to Musk's association with the Trump administration has been the hardest felt. His firing follows the departure of another Tesla bigwig, Milan Kovac, who was in charge of Tesla's Optimus humanoid robot program before stepping down earlier this month. Musk thanked Kovac for his time at the company, but so far has not commented on Fashar's termination. Bloomberg reported that Jenna Ferrua, a human resources director for North America, also left Tesla. Fashar walked the plank of what might be a sinking ship. Tesla shares are down by 19 percent this year, with sales tumbling worldwide. It sold 15 percent fewer cars in China last month than it did last year, with the trend looking even grimmer in Europe, where sales have now plummeted for five straight months — despite EV registrations on the continent being up overall. In the US, sales dropped nine percent in the first three months of the year. That period saw Tesla's total sales fall by 13 percent, the largest drop in the company's history. Overseas, Chinese EV companies have stepped in to fill the void, with BYD overtaking Tesla in terms of sales and revenue. Public outcry against Tesla, which has included mass protests, boycotts, and acts of vandalism that target its dealerships and cars, has driven the decline. It became difficult to separate Musk's image from his automaker's as he endorsed Donald Trump for president, threw some $300 million towards funding Trump's campaign, and led the Department of Government Efficiency to gut the federal government. The automaker is also saddled with an aging lineup, and its attempt to spice things up with a newly facelifted Model Y — and desperate financing deals — have been a dud. The controversial Cybertruck, which is on its eighth recall and has come to embody the public's distaste for Musk, has been such a disaster that thousands of the boldly styled pickups are rotting in dealership lots, with only 7,100 sold in the US over the first quarter. This is all bubbling in the background as Musk has boldly pivoted Tesla towards operating a robotaxi service, which launched unceremoniously in Austin, Texas, last week, with human "safety monitors" conspicuously placed in the front passenger seats. Despite just a dozen or so of the self-driving Teslas in operation — and at that limited to a small "geofenced" area where driving conditions are most ideal — the robotaxis have already drawn the attention of federal regulators for a string of incidents in which they seemingly violated traffic laws.

The Whiff of Corruption: Trump's New Perfume Has Strong Notes of Graft
President Donald Trump took to social media Monday night to promote a limited edition, self-branded fragrance in a bottle topped with a gold statuette of a generic man in a suit, called 'Victory 45-47.' 'For Patriots who never back down, like President Trump. This scent is your rallying cry in a bottle,' reads the advertising copy for both a men's cologne and a women's perfume sold under the same name. Trump launched the scents with an announcement on Truth Social, wedged between posts boasting about U.S. tariff revenue and touting the so-called 'One Big Beautiful Bill.' Hours later, Trump posted: 'We brought respect and dignity back.' 'Trump Fragrances are here. They're called 'Victory 45-47' because they're all about Winning, Strength, and Success,' wrote the president. 'Get yourself a bottle, and don't forget to get one for your loved ones too. Enjoy, have fun, and keep winning!' Victory 45-47 costs a whopping $249 for 3.3 fluid ounces. Roughly the same quantity of Chanel No. 5 retails for $176. Last month, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said it was 'absurd for anyone to insinuate that this president is profiting off of the presidency.' Trump's net worth was estimated at $5.1 billion in March, a full $1.2 billion more than the year before, according to Forbes. It is the highest Trump's net worth has ever been in the magazine's rankings. 'It's quite a comeback for the former president, who more than doubled his net worth in a year,' wrote Forbes senior editor Dan Alexander in March. 'It pays to be king.' (Just recently, Trump attacked Forbes and Alexander in a Truth Social post.) Read our Complete Coverage All the President's Crimes The first convicted felon to serve as president, Trump has sidelined past notions of propriety, busted all previous ethical boundaries, and annihilated remaining norms surrounding graft. After being twice impeached during his first term, the president has dismantled any viable machinery of accountability during his second stint in the White House. Trump has fired government inspectors general, installed loyalists at the Justice Department and FBI, and is protected from legislative oversight and additional impeachments by a Republican-controlled Congress. The Intercept has documented Trump and his family's efforts to monetize the presidency via meme coins and cryptocurrency. They and their business partners have collected at least $320 million in fees from $TRUMP crypto. To mark the 100th day of Trump's second term, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., read 100 reports of graft into the congressional record on April 29. 'Trump and his administration have paved the way for the president, his top officials, and his billionaire buddies to personally feed at the trough of government corruption,' she said. Trump reported income of more than $630 million last year, including $57 million from cryptocurrency sales. Trump has assets in excess of $1.6 billion across a business empire that includes real estate holdings, hotels, golf courses, as well as investment accounts and numerous Trump-branded efforts, according to a 234-page financial disclosure released by the White House earlier this month. But every little bit counts: Trump also made $2.5 million from Trump sneakers and perfumes in 2024. Trump previously hawked a 'Fight, Fight, Fight' line of fragrances that harken back to the 2024 attempt on his life in Butler, Pennsylvania. Those scents sell for $199 a bottle. The new Trump perfume and cologne are also available through A webpage touting Victory 45-47 perfume refers to it as 'rare, exclusive, collectible footwear.' '45Footwear uses Donald J. Trump's name, likeness and image under paid license from CIC Ventures LLC,' according to the website's fine print, which also notes 'these are only official Golf Shoes, Sneakers & Fragrances by President Trump!' 45Footwear, LLC is 'not owned, managed or controlled' by the president, the Trump Organization, or CIC but says that it pays CIC for a branding deal. Trump himself is the manager, president, secretary, and treasurer of CIC Ventures, according to his recent financial disclosure, which valued the firm at somewhere between $1 million and $5 million. Wyoming, where 45Footwear is incorporated, does not require businesses to publicly disclose their owners' names. 'Trump Fragrances are not designed, manufactured, distributed or sold by Donald J. Trump, The Trump Organization or any of their respective affiliates or principals,' the Trump Fragrance website says, despite this close connection. The scents and sneakers are part of numerous merchandise, retail sales, and licensing deals worth more than $8 million, which also include products from guitars to watches. Not all Trump-branded products can deliver a rallying cry in a bottle, or even Trump's full name. Tim Petit, a Rhode Island man, bought a $640 'Inauguration First Lady' pink-dialed timepiece for his wife, who cried when her husband gave her a watch that instead said 'RUMP.' 'I'm very disappointed,' he told his local NBC affiliate. 'I want it to be a special thing for her. And we had expected that it would have the integrity of the president of the United States and good follow-through.' Trump has recently addressed the problem of corruption head-on by encouraging other nations to turn a blind eye to possible wrongdoing by their elected leaders. Last weekend, Trump demanded Israeli prosecutors drop the graft charges against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is on trial for allegedly accepting hundreds of thousands of dollars of luxury goods in exchange for political favors and attempting to negotiate for more favorable coverage from Israeli media outlets. 'Bibi Netanyahu's trial should be CANCELLED, IMMEDIATELY, or a Pardon given to a Great Hero, who has done so much for the State,' Trump posted on Truth Social. 'It was the United States of America that saved Israel, and now it is going to be the United States of America that saves Bibi Netanyahu. THIS TRAVESTY OF 'JUSTICE' CAN NOT BE ALLOWED!'

20 Warning Signs You're Mistaking Mere Motion For Innovation
In the rush to innovate, it's easy for companies to confuse activity with impact. From launching flashy new features to holding endless brainstorming sessions, the motions of 'pursuing innovation' can sometimes overshadow actual outcomes. Real innovation delivers measurable value—improved customer experiences, operational efficiency, strategic transformation—and if you're missing that value, you might not actually be innovating. Below, members of Forbes Technology Council share common red flags that indicate a company may be confusing mere movement for meaningful progress. Watch out for these signs before your next big initiative misses the mark. 1. You Haven't Heard From Frontline Teams Or End Users A major red flag is when innovation is pursued without integrating insights from frontline teams or end users. If feedback loops are missing and real-world application isn't guiding development, then the company is simply performing innovation rather than achieving it. True progress requires learning, adapting and aligning with actual operational impact. - Andres Zunino, ZirconTech 2. There's No Clear, Upfront ROI Innovation lacking a clear, upfront ROI is a red flag. While niche innovations have their place, focusing on broader, more generic use cases often maximizes resource impact, solving more problems with the same investment compared to siloed solutions. - Suvarna Krishnan, Logile Inc. Forbes Technology Council is an invitation-only community for world-class CIOs, CTOs and technology executives. Do I qualify? 3. You're Celebrating Launches Over Outcomes When teams celebrate launches over outcomes, it's a red flag. If success is measured by outputs (tasks completed, decks created, meetings held) instead of actual impact on the business, you're mistaking motion for progress. Real innovation drives measurable change, not just activity that looks good on a roadmap. - Andrew Kucheriavy, Intechnic 4. You're Waiting For Perfect Conditions 'Perfect' is the enemy of 'good' here. The most effective managers that we speak with have a forward-leaning, experiment-oriented approach. If you're still on the sidelines waiting for the models to be 'better' or 'perfect' or for the reform factors and the workflows to be really well-defined, I think you're going to be starting from behind. - Mike Conover, Brightwave 5. There Are No KPIs Or Accountability Structure Meaningful innovation will have clear objectives, KPIs, a plan of testing and delivery, a regular cadence of reporting, and accountability—all the hallmarks of any other meaningful project in a business. There will be additional aspects, like extra autonomy, experimentation, new tools, a sandbox and so on, but if the core ingredients of execution and accountability are missing, it is a red flag. - Maria Scott, TAINA Technology 6. You're Adopting Tech Without Strategic Fit It's easy to get desensitized to the excitement of new technologies, but when companies adopt tech without asking if it solves a problem or assessing how it moves the business forward, that's a red flag. Executives can often spot potential, but the challenge is knowing when to act on an innovation. Move too fast, and you risk wasted investment; too slow, and you miss opportunities to adapt to it. - Eric Giesecke, Planet DDS 7. There's Poor Alignment With Business Goals A red flag that a company is mistaking activity for innovation is when projects lack alignment with business goals. If teams are busy with new initiatives without a clear understanding of how they impact strategic outcomes, it's just activity without real impact. True innovation solves problems, enhances customer experiences and drives long-term business growth. - Sandeep Telu, Infosys Consulting 8. Nothing Ever Gets Commercialized Real innovation delivers measurable results. It's a red flag when companies constantly tout their 'innovation efforts' but struggle to launch anything that moves the needle. Without successful commercialization, lab experiments remain just that—experiments. No market impact means no real innovation occurred. - Tobin Harris, Pocketworks 9. There's No Change In Customer Behavior One red flag? The roadmap gets longer, but customer behavior stays the same. If your so-called 'innovation' doesn't shift how users act, think or trust, you're just busy, not bold. True innovation breaks a pattern. If all you're disrupting is an internal process, you're iterating, not innovating. - Akhilesh Sharma, A3Logics Inc. 10. You're Overvaluing Short-Term Output Watch out for an excessive focus on short-term metrics or outputs rather than long-term value creation and meaningful outcomes. When a company prioritizes the number of projects launched or products released over assessing actual impact, user feedback, market need and alignment with strategic goals, it often indicates that the activity is merely surface-level, not genuine innovation driving progress. - Raghvendra Tripathi 11. You're Building 'Me Too' Products To Chase Trends A clear red flag is when a company builds 'me too' products to tick innovation boxes, prioritizing trends over core strengths. Tagging every feature as 'AI' without real relevance reflects a focus on hype instead of value. This results in shallow, undifferentiated offerings and signals a lack of strategic foresight and an overreliance on chasing current trends. - Karan Alang, Versa Networks Inc. 12. There Are No Measurable Outcomes From Experiments A key red flag is constant experimentation or tech adoption without measurable outcomes. If teams launch initiatives with no clear success metrics, customer impact or strategic alignment, it's innovation theater. Real innovation drives value—activity alone, no matter how flashy, is just noise masking a lack of meaningful progress. - Sai Shashank Rasamalla, American Express 13. Innovation Is Confined To One Department When a company limits innovation to a single department (such as the development or R&D team) without integrating it into core business functions like sales or operations, it creates a disconnect that undermines meaningful progress. This lack of cross-functional collaboration leads to significantly misaligned priorities, wasted resources and innovations that fail to address business needs. - Son Nguyen, Neurond AI 14. Tech Is Being Layered On Top Of Broken Systems Many companies claim they're 'digitally transforming,' but under the hood, they're layering tech over old habits. When teams still use separate systems that don't talk to each other, leading to duplicate or conflicting data, it's a clear sign that the transformation is cosmetic, not cultural or operational. It means tech is applied to automate broken processes rather than rethink them entirely. - Konstantin Klyagin, Redwerk 15. Pilot Projects Never Scale A major red flag is when a company runs endless pilot projects or proofs of concept but never scales them to production. This signals a culture obsessed with appearing innovative rather than delivering real impact. True innovation involves measurable outcomes, not just activity—scaling solutions, improving efficiency or creating value for users. - Anuj Tyagi 16. You're Tracking Vanity Metrics Over Value When success is measured by vanity metrics—like number of patents filed or AI models built—instead of actual value delivered to users or markets, it's a clear sign the company is prioritizing motion over meaningful progress. - Anusha Nerella, State Street Corporation 17. You're Skipping Real-World Adoption Testing A red flag is heavy investment in ideas derived from customer research without validating them through real-world adoption and engagement metrics. Failing to test hypotheses via incremental launches and skipping milestone checks risks prioritizing activity over impact, wasting resources on features customers may not value or use rather than driving meaningful innovation. - Udit Mehrotra, Amazon 18. You're Prioritizing Speed Over Purpose A key red flag is when companies push for rapid releases just to stay ahead, without taking the time to understand user needs or ensure quality. It often leads to technical debt and burnout, which can stall genuine innovation. Sustainable progress happens when companies focus on solving real problems thoughtfully, not just chasing headlines. - Pooja Devaraju, Google 19. There's A Lack Of Executive Support For Bold Ideas Innovation falters when leadership lacks buy-in for rapid, data-driven experiments. Inhibiting top talent's potential by withholding adequate support for their bold initiatives exposes a company mistaking activity for true, impactful progress. - Anil Pantangi, Capgemini America Inc. 20. You're Adding Complexity Instead Of Resilience One red flag is mistaking complexity for progress. Real innovation starts in infrastructure. If you're adding layers without reducing fragility, you're just scaling failure. Slapping modern tools on a monolith doesn't make it modern. If the architecture can't adapt and self-heal, it's not a platform—it's a liability. - Spencer Kimball, Cockroach Labs
