Whatever happened to the WARN lawsuits against Musk? How is he allowed to layoff 40-50% of staff with zero notice?

So when he's bragging that severance is larger than it had to be, it's basically a lie?

If it's 3 months severance, doesn't seem like he's lying.

Lawsuits take more than 1 week. They are coming, in time. Unfortunately, their only penalty is monetary. So the answer to your latter question is "he can pay the fine."
