Faraday Future distances itself from LeEco,”Technically, there is no legal relationship” says company exec

California-based automotive startup and EV hopeful, Faraday Future, has begun to distance itself from any association with principal financier LeEco as the company seeks funding to support production of its 1000+ horsepower FF 91 electric crossover.

“Technically, there is no legal relationship with LeEco,” Krause told CNET’s Tim Stevens in an interview. “They are in one part of our business. They are a supplier and if we would lose them as a supplier there are many suppliers.”

Krause also noted that should LeEco cease to exist in the near future, investors and employees alike need not fear as they are two completely different companies.

The statement by Faraday’s executive follows reports that LeEco has been on thin ice for months. Since the resignation of former CEO and source of the bulk of Faraday’s initial funding, Jia Yeuting (also known as YT), LeEco has laid off nearly 70 percent of its US workforce, and was even called a “Ponzi Scheme” by Chinese internet giant Tencent co-founder Zeng Liqing.

“If you’re not able to spot an apparent Ponzi scheme [like LeEco], you’re neither worthy of working in the investment industry nor suitable for entrepreneurship,” Zeng said in a lengthy post on Chinese social media platform WeChat.

Despite its financial woes, Faraday COO and CFO Stefan Krause remains optimistic, resilient and confident in the company’s endeavors. Faraday continues to detangle themselves from LeEco.

Shifting away from the toxicity of their former financier, Faraday now looks to keep pace with their proposed production schedule of their first production crossover, the FF 91. In the wake of suspending their construction of a Nevada production facility, Faraday recently leased an ex-Pirelli tire plant in Hanford, CA for the production site of the FF 91.

It’s no secret that the EV industry is an exciting and potentially lucrative space to be investing, that’s why Faraday remains resilient in their funding efforts. Faraday still seeks an additional $1 billion in funding to continue development of the FF91, and Krause remains steadfast in his efforts.

“I’ve not had a single investor say no,” Krause said. “Nobody doubts that this industry has a great future. We are not in a dying industry, I think we are in the right place at the right time. We just have to battle a financial weakness right now.”

    • It appears to me that this is a key aspect of the 2030 initiative ideology. While the Rothschilds were indeed influential individuals who were able to sway governments, much like present-day billionaires, the true impetus for change stems from the omnipotent forces (Satan) shaping our world. In this case, there is a false God of this world. However, what drives action within a political framework? Power! What is unfolding before our eyes in today's world? The relentless struggle for power. The overwhelming tide of people rising. We cannot underestimate the direct and sinister influence of Satan in all of this. However, it is up to individuals to decide how they choose to worship God. Satanism, as a form of religion, cannot be regarded as a true religion. Consequently, just as ancient practices of child sacrifice had a place in God's world, such sacrifices would never be accepted by the True God of our universe. Despite the promising 2030 initiative for those involved, it is unfortunately disintegrating due to the actions of certain individuals in positions of authority. A recent incident serves as a glaring example, involving a conflict between peaceful Muslims and a Jewish representative that unfolded just this week. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/mar/11/us-delegation-saudi-arabia-kippah?ref=upstract.com Saudi Arabia was among the countries that agreed to the initiative signed by approximately 179 nations in or around 1994. However, this initiative is now being undermined by the devil himself, who is sowing discord among the delegates due to the ongoing Jewish-Hamas (Palestine) conflict. Fostering antisemitism. What kind of sacrifice does Satan accept with the death of babies and children in places like Gaza, Ukraine, and other conflicts around the world, whether in the past or present, that God wouldn't? Whatever personal experiences we may have had with well-known individuals, true Christians understand that current events were foretold long ago, and nothing can prevent them from unfolding. What we are witnessing is the result of Satan's wrath upon humanity, as was predicted. A true religion will not involve itself in the politics of this world, as it is aware of the many detrimental factors associated with such engagement. It understands the true intentions of Satan for this world and wisely chooses to stay unaffected by them.
    • This idea that Satan can put Jews in power implies that God doesn't want Jews in power. But that would also imply that God only wants "Christians" including Hitler, Biden, Pol Pot, Chiang Kai-Shek, etc. 
    • @Mic Drop, I don't buy it. I watched the movie. It has all the hallmarks of the anti-semitic tropes that began to rise precipitously on social media during the last few years - pre-current-Gaza-war. And it has similarities to the same anti-semitic tropes that began to rise in Europe in the 900's to 1100's. It was back in the 500s AD/CE that many Khazars failed to take or keep land they fought for around what's now Ukraine and southern Russia. Khazars with a view to regaining power were still being driven out into the 900's. And therefore they migrated to what's now called Eastern Europe. It's also true that many of their groups converted to Judaism after settling in Eastern Europe. It's possibly also true that they could be hired as mercenaries even after their own designs on empire had dwindled.  But I think the film takes advantage of the fact that so few historical records have ever been considered reliable by the West when it comes to these regions. So it's easy to fill the vacuum with some very old antisemitic claims, fables, rumors, etc..  The mention of Eisenhower in the movie was kind of a giveaway, too. It's like, Oh NO! The United States had a Jew in power once. How on earth could THAT have happened? Could it be . . . SATAN??" Trying to tie a connection back to Babylonian Child Sacrifice Black Magick, Secret Satanism, and Baal worship has long been a trope for those who need to think that no Jews like the Rothschilds and Eisenhowers (????) etc would not have been able to get into power in otherwise "Christian" nations without help from Satan.    Does child sacrifice actually work to gain power?? Does drinking blood? Does pedophilia??? (also mentioned in the movie) Yes, it's an evil world and many people have evil ideologies based on greed and lust and ego. But how exactly does child sacrifice or pedophilia or drinking blood produce a more powerful nation or cabal of some kind? To me that's a giveaway that the authors know that the appeal will be to people who don't really care about actual historical evidence. Also, the author(s) of the video proved that they have not done much homework, but are just trying to fill that supposed knowledge gap by grasping at old paranoid and prejudicial premises. (BTW, my mother and grandmother, in 1941 and 1942, sat next to Dwight Eisenhower's mother at an assembly of Jehovah's Witnesses. The Eisenhower family had been involved in a couple of "Christian" religions and a couple of them associated with IBSA and JWs for many years.)
