    Why else would we need millions of immigrants? Yes, voting fraud because democrats love illegal things just like Pelosi and her stocks.

    Makes you wonder how much of the TESLA hype and even income statement data you can trust, when Musk lies so blatently repeatedly. Puts all those years of claims that FSD was just around the corner into perspective, doesn’t it?

    Oh my goodness. Everything you spoke about concerning the immigration is shown to be true in government report. You’re clearly uneducated about what he said. And what is actually happening

  12. @nathanroberson

    October 24, 2024 at 7:44 pm

    Oh my goodness. Each time Elon speaks about it. He presents it as the immigration that’s happening illegally today Will have affect on the next presidential election. He is correct when stating that illegal immigrants have had taxpayer money spent on them to help them travel to swing states to establish living. Overtime, these immigrants become citizens and then vote. he points this out and the way that you presented it completely ignorant and twisted. he’s never stated the immigrants that are illegal that the Democrats have spent money to move around. The country will be voting in this election.

    And your presentation is so faulty because you try to back it up by just saying “there are experts” you should be required to have their names of who is standing behind that. And you conclude in the end this is just your opinion. But you seem to failed to understand a little your opinion matters. You’re supposed to be reporting something that you found true. You failed to analyze any of the 200 tweets posted 🤔

    Doesn’t CA have a law that prohibits pollsters from asking voters for I.D., while CA itself is a sanctuary state? Are these lies? It’s very tough to decipher what is true and what is false. Democrats shouted down & banned people from social media platforms during the pandemic if they mentioned the virus could have originated in Wuhan, China. People were shouted down, banned & ridiculed when asking if the Hunter laptop story was a true story. People were shouted down if they didn’t think masks were very affective. People were shouted down & shunned from society if they didn’t want to take 5 booster shots. Where are all the masks & booster shots today? Where does it seem now that is the most likely origin of that virus? Was the Hunter Biden laptop story real? I think it’s rather insane that democrats clearly interfered in election integrity by having Meta remove any mentions of this laptop story & other truths that would have been detrimental to their campaign. That they moderated twitter to ensure it only allowed ideas from the left & anyone who disagreed with a leftist talking point was banned from the platform with no recourse. Stanford doctors were banned for sharing their medical opinion. It was an insane time, where for 3 straight years, this party lied to the American public, never took accountability for their mistakes & instead continue the same garbage today. Look at this video. They are so concerned with Elons excessive mention of illegal aliens, but have absolutely no concern about 10+ million new illegal aliens that have entered the country in this administration. It’s insane. Elon has the right to practice free speech. People who enter the country through illegal methods do not have the right to stay here. This video is attacking the person that is not breaking the law. lol. It’s a clown show.

    I’m old enough to remember Musk once being an immigrant who moved to America for a better life. Such a sellout, all because he wants more power. Sad how belligerent Americans have become.

    ED Ludlow has been a Fan Boy and Apologist for Musk, at every turn. Perhaps the Real Journalists at Bloomberg had enough of his lack of journalistic integrity. Listen to his apology for being at RocketLab where he invited everyone to ‘Praise’ Musk and SpaceX

    For America to allow immigrants such as Elon Musk and Rupert Murdoch to wield so much influence over its political discourse and electoral process, while inflaming stochastic terrorism, and engaging in, what is almost certainly voter fraud, is peak cognitive dissonance.

    This piece of Shyte is so fake and hypocritical. Why doesn’t he disclose his and Peter Theil and Trump and Kennedy and Vance’s real objectives? They all lie every time they move their lips. Elon thinks he knows everything and the Universe revolves around him. So why does he keep getting billions of dollars in Subsidies to run his corporations that have yet to succeed at anything? Shouldn’t be be working if he has all these corporations? Where are his 12 kids who have no mom? He’s a total fake! Interestingly, he pushed for China’s EVs to have a 100% tariff put on them because they are better cars, with better batteries, and the sell for $9.000 to $30,000. He can’t match or beat any of that. And in 3 years they’ve outsold Tesla on the global markets. He’s shitty at everything he does but somehow he’s convinced the dumbasses he’s a genius. Fart face is NOT a genius.

    Elon Musk is turning out to be a monster and huge risk to our democracy. He was fueled by over $20B in Government grants for SpaceX and multiple times that in Government tax credits and rebates for TESLA cars. Neither business would have lasted or succeeded without these enormous subsidies.

      Indeed, SOLD all my shares, My sympathies to Tesla employees and the people that built the company. Meanwhile, musk is polarizing our country with enormous lies on X. Read the Bloomberg reports. He will ultimately destroy the Tesla brand.

    The primary motive behind orchestrating mass migration is to inundate ‘swing states’ with undocumented immigrants who become reliant on federal assistance. This dependency is likely to foster loyalty, resulting in consistent Democratic support. Consequently, swing states may become dominated by a single party, making it increasingly difficult for any other party to win presidential elections in the future. Unless the populace actively reclaims its political landscape, Democrats—often labeled as Socialists or Communists—could maintain control indefinitely. This may sound alarmist, but it reflects a pressing reality.

    Democrats wrote books about increasing the voter pool with immigration and now they call you crazy when you call it out. I wish more Americans would do a little investigating to find the truth. Both Republicans and democrats lie. Think for yourself.

    Musk is the richest person in the world. Why would he get involved with protecting the freedom of speech and American politics and policies? Something very serious is up. Poor dumb Americans.
