A U.S. Navy plane dispatched from Japan made the initial discovery, as told by the U.S. Coast Guard Forces of Micronesia/Sector Guam
On April 6, Joint Rescue Sub-Center (JRSC) Guam received a distress call from a relative of the three mariners reporting her three uncles had not returned from Pikelot Atoll, approximately 100 nautical miles northwest of Polowat Atoll.

The three mariners, all men in their 40s, reportedly embarked on their voyage from Polowat Atoll Easter Sunday in a small 20-foot open skiff equipped with an outboard motor and experience in navigating these waters.
JRSC Guam watchstanders immediately began coordinating a multifaceted search and rescue operation. Despite initial challenges in mobilizing air assets due to availability, operational commitments, and weather conditions, persistent efforts led to the engagement of a U.S. Navy P-8 aircraft crew from Kadena Air Force Base in Japan and the diversion of USCGC Oliver Henry (WPC 1140), already underway in the FSM, to the initial search area which spanned over 78,000 square nautical miles.
The breakthrough came when the U.S. Navy P-8 Poseidon aircraft identified the three mariners on April 7 on Pikelot Atoll, confirming their presence and condition.
“In a remarkable testament to their will to be found, the mariners spelled out “HELP” on the beach using palm leaves, a crucial factor in their discovery. This act of ingenuity was pivotal in guiding rescue efforts directly to their location” said Lt. Chelsea Garcia, the search and rescue mission coordinator on the day they were located. “This successful operation underscores the effective coordination and partnership between the U.S. Coast Guard, the U.S. Navy, and regional partners. We extend our gratitude to everyone involved.”
The aircraft crew successfully deployed survival packages to sustain the mariners until further assistance could arrive. USCGC Oliver Henry was rerouted to Pikelot Atoll to conduct the rescue operation.
Another troubling issue should be noted for context. During his deposition, Musk was asked about a Twitter account called @ermnmusk that he was rumored to use. (Id. at 44:11-12; see also Ex. 2, @ermnmusk account).
Musk testified that he used the account during the summer of 2023, which means he viewed and interacted with tweets on this account around the time when Brody was defamed. (Id. at 45:17). Thus, information Musk interacted with on this account near the time of the defamation could be relevant to Brody’s claims.
However, when Plaintiff ’s counsel checked the account after the deposition, they discovered it had been deleted. According to @BigTechAlert, an automated bot that tracks Twitter activity, it appears the @ermnmusk account was deleted on or about February 21, 2024…
This deletion is alarming because February 21, 2024 is the date of the Court’s discovery order. In other words, after almost a year of inactivity on the account and with no recent public discussion about it, it appears Musk chose to delete the account on the day the Court ordered discovery to go forward…
Yet another embarrassing video has been released of the Cybertruck. This time it was defeated by a very small hill with a trivial test in Marble Falls, Texas. It crawled into a little tree and became stuck.
Winched away from that tree, the Cybertruck then immediately gets itself stuck again.
Unable to steer straight (apparently too weak itself) it’s winched over a small bump.
A voice in the background laughs at the driver and taunts him with “Hey Elon I need a software update!”

Who did Nazi this coming for the Tesla wankpanzer?
TMZ has posted a report showing three Tesla that crashed into each other.
Check out these pics taken from a crash scene in Bev Hills Wednesday — where a 3-way Tesla pile-up occurred at the intersection of Rexford Drive and Beverly Drive, and it looks like there were a few different models in the mix, not to mention varying degrees of damage.

Beverly Hills PD tells TMZ … a detective sergeant came out to facilitate the exchange of info, but didn’t take a police report…
Nothing to see here. Just some Nazi road robots getting into a fight with themselves, as usual.

The owner of one Tesla said his assistant was driving, and I’m sure the assistant will soon say they do not want to be blamed for driving either.
