But now I'm wondering how you arrest him, given his own privatized Secret Service. Trump would be easier to arrest at this point.

It's a moot point, because Garland doesn't have the coinstitution for such moves. Like, it's just not in his makeup. It's why he approached 1/6 by going after the small potatoes as if it were a mob case, instead of going straight at Trump from the outset. He's just the wrong guy for this era.

Arrest each member of his SS that interferes with the arrest.

They do this all the time with gangs of various sorts. I'm pretty sure they can deal with Musk's flunkeys if they want to, that is.

They arrested Chapo I think they would do fine with Tweedle Dee or Dumb But, that's a long way off

Arresting Musk would be trivial for the FBI. They have complete SIGINT, loads of trained people, and would have total control of any public place they wish to control for an arrest. There would be no legit obstacles.

A siege. His only escape is exile to Mars.

1. Wait for him to get on his plane 2. Shoot the tires 3. Starve him out

What is Musk’s privatized Secret Service? I’ve somehow missed reading about this.

Agreed, which again raises questions about his increasing entanglements with US communications and security. How exactly do you compel a guy whose motto is “so sue me” to abide by contract terms at a critical moment?
