Nor was John Hancock. But he was a rich guy who stood up and stood as an example.

Just keep watching Chuck Todd. He'll tell you everything you have a need to know.

Prohibit Embraer and Petrobras from doing business in the US for every day they screw with X.

Elon musk is all that stands in the way of some judge in Brazil hitting X with fines they can never collect.

If that’s totalitarianism then okay. It sounds more like a clown show.

Musk throwing us another “I’m a good guy” bone as he builds Skynet to help usher in global totalitarianism.

Musk has two hands, He is only showing us one of them. The other he hides behind his back.

The one behind his back is the one to worry about...

I don't recall hearing that his family was attacked.

After  Elon called out the Deep State, specifically the CIA and their propaganda machine (i.e., Twitter), I wasn't all that surprised to see what amounts to a death threat - a fake  obituary for him. Initially I didn't post this trash, but I think people should know what he has risked, and continues to risk.

Musk has been a very positive force for good but there is another billionaire doing more. Trump. Obviously more important too.

I pray for Elon Musk and Donald Trump, and their families. Both men are risking  their lives and the safety of their families to rescue freedom. Twitter was an indoctrination mouthpiece, working along other Deep State mouthpieces, to create an entirely false world, one in which Donald Trump was portrayed as evil. And people believed the lies.

So as Donald Trump and other patriots work to stitch America back together, Elon Musk is making it possible by withdrawing the CIA alternate reality. Now the public can see. You can't have freedom if people are deluded and living in 'The Matrix.'

There are others working toward our freedom too. I see names of risk taking freedom fighters in the news all the time.  I appreciate them all, ask God to bless them and protect them, and give them joy in spite of the battles. I ask that God would help those fighting for freedom believe in Him, and know He loves them. I would like to think that President Trump and Musk (and others) still have moments of respite, like enjoying their child/grandchild's birthday delight or actually relax,etc.
