SpaceX sued for $15 million by Cards Against Humanity makers – Washington Examiner
The makers of the popular card game “Cards Against Humanity” have sued SpaceX for $15 million, claiming that the company trespassed and caused damage to their property in Brownsville, Texas. The land was purchased by the card game company in 2017 with funds raised from a crowdfunding campaign, aimed at disrupting former President Donald Trump’s border wall initiative. The lawsuit asserts that SpaceX has been using the land as a staging area for its construction activities, which contradicts the purpose for which the card game company acquired the property. The suit indicates that the property was specifically obtained to prevent any developments related to the border wall plans.
SpaceX sued for $15 million by Cards Against Humanity makers
A popular card game manufacturer known for their Cards Against Humanity game sued Elon Musk’s SpaceX for $15 million, alleging the company trespassed and damaged their company’s property in Texas.
The lawsuit, filed on Thursday, seeks to cover damages related to SpaceX activity on the property, which the card game company acquired to disrupt former President Donald Trump’s border wall plan.
The Cards Against Humanity company originally bought the land, located in Brownsville, Texas, with crowdfunded money from thousands of customers during a promotion in 2017.
“Donald Trump is a preposterous golem who is afraid of Mexicans,” a website for the promotion reads. “He is so afraid that he wants to build a twenty-billion dollar wall that everyone knows will accomplish nothing.”
But the land happens to be near SpaceX, and the rocket company has allegedly been using it as a staging area for construction.
“CAH acquired the Property for the sole purpose of ensuring that it would stay that way,” the lawsuit says.
“SpaceX’s abuse of this Property has not only destroyed its natural condition, but has also caused even greater harm to CAH by virtue of the damage it has caused to CAH’s relationship with its paying supporters,” it says.
There was a “No Trespassing” sign up on the land, according to the company. It previously complained to SpaceX, and Musk’s company allegedly offered to buy it for “less than half” of its value.
The Cards Against Humanity maker rejected that offer. Photos from the lawsuit show an empty, grassy lot allegedly from before SpaceX intruded. After photos show the vegetation had been cleared and construction materials and vehicles strewn about.
Musk is a supporter of Trump and donated recently about $280,000 to the National Republican Congressional Committee.
Musk has previously said he would take a role in a future Trump administration if asked and said in a post on X that he “can’t wait” in response to another post detailing that Trump will ask business executives to audit federal agencies.
