The company was notified in October 2023 that SpaceX was using the property, a spokesperson told Block Club.
Nearby homeowner Keith Reynolds noticed SpaceX had cleared a parcel belonging to Cards Against Humanity and saw SpaceX was storing construction materials on the land, according to a Reuters report published Friday.
“Reynolds said he called SpaceX to complain, but got no response. He also phoned an executive at Cards Against Humanity to inform them,” according to the report by Marisa Taylor. “The executive, who asked not to be identified by name, told Reuters that Denise Marrufo, a SpaceX real estate analyst, called afterward, asking if the company wanted to sell the property.”
Since then, the site has been “cleared of vegetation,” and soil has been compacted with gravel or another substance so SpaceX and its contractors are able to run and park vehicles on the property, Cards Against Humanity claims. Generators, lights and other construction-related equipment has also been utilized and stored on the land, according to the lawsuit.
Cards Against Humanity doesn’t own any of the vehicle or equipment pictured in the image below, according to the lawsuit. The company has been displaced from and deprived of its property without warning from SpaceX, officials said.
“SpaceX has never asked for permission to use the Property, much less for the egregious appropriation of the Property for its own profit-making purposes,” the lawsuit reads.
SpaceX also hasn’t reached out to the game company, officials said.
“We’re still waiting for them to ask for permission, apologize or even acknowledge the situation,” a Cards Against Humanity spokesperson told Block Club. “We haven’t heard from them since the filing. They only contacted us to give us a 12-hour ultimatum to sell the property for a lowball price — after they dumped their s*it on it.”
Cards Against Humanity’s plot of land along the U.S.-Mexico border is pictured in 2024. The company claims Elon Musk’s SpaceX dumped equipment and material on the land.
