Elon Musk: "Even if I'm criticized by the whole world, I won't let go of X." The reason makes you think.
Reporter: "Why are you so attached to X?"
Elon: "What do you mean by that?"
Reporter: "Since the acquisition, it's been nothing but criticism, right?"
Elon: "That's true."
Reporter: "Politicians criticize you too."
Elon: "Yes."
Reporter: "There are conflicts with regulatory authorities."
Elon: "That's true."
Reporter: "Honestly, wouldn't it be easier to sell it?"
Elon: "Why?"
Reporter: "You have Tesla and SpaceX, don't you?"
Elon: "I do."
Reporter: "There's no need to stay in the center of controversies, right?"
Elon: "But what would that solve?"
Reporter: "...... Huh?"
Elon: "I think it's important to have a place where opinions can be exchanged freely."
Reporter: "But there are unpleasant opinions too, aren't there?"
Elon: "Of course."
Reporter: "There are wrong opinions too."
Elon: "That's true."
Reporter: "So, shouldn't there be restrictions?"
Elon: "How far to restrict?"
Reporter: "That's..."
Elon: "Who decides which opinions are correct?"
Reporter: "..."
Elon: "It's easy to protect only the opinions we agree with."
Reporter: "Yes."
Elon: "But what about when contrary opinions arise?"
Reporter: "..."
Elon: "That's where the real test of free speech happens, don't you think?"

Mark Cuban says he wants nothing to do with either political party: “The Republican Party is the Trump family business, and the Democratic Party doesn’t even know what it’s doing. They both suck.” 🇺🇸
Mark Cuban: “People think I’m a Democrat. I’m not.
If it were up to me, I’d kick both parties to the curb. I think both parties suck. I’m a moderate independent.”
Tucker Carlson: “If you were advising Elon, would you tell him to stay out of the Republican Party and try to win some seats for common sense? Would you back him?”
Mark Cuban: “It depends on the policies and the politicians they were putting forward. Yes, I’m wide open to that.
We need to look at each individual situation on its own merits. I just don’t care about either party.
The Republican Party isn’t the Republican Party anymore. It’s the Trump family business.
And the Democratic Party doesn’t even exist anymore because they don’t even know what they’re doing, and there’s nobody in charge.
They both suck.”

How about the robot is looking down while assembling a Swiss watch with one hand and then, without looking up, catches an oblique 100mph baseball with the other hand?
I also like the idea of juggling chainsaws on fire while riding a unicycle.

Sounds like Alex P🍆 knows a thing or two about being investigated 🤔
As California's top election official during the 2020 presidential election, Alex Padilla handed a $35M voter-contact contract to Joe Biden's campaign firm.
The state controller even refused to pay because she said his office didn't have the authority to spend the money.
Alex illegally used federal election grant money for get-out-the-vote work.

Joy was taught a lesson she'd never forget after she asked "what is Elon Musk doing with his money?"

PRESIDENT TRUMP: "Whether I lost $2 billion or $5 billion, it doesn't make any difference to me. I don't care. If you're rich, it doesn't matter. I'm doing this for the country, I'm doing this for the people."
President Trump is putting country over money. 🔥🔥

ELON MUSK: I have no respect for the warmongers and war profiteers who want the war to continue forever. There must be peace. It is time for the slaughter of young men to stop.”
War is not just about politics or power. It is about human lives, families torn apart, futures destroyed, and young men who may never return home.
The world needs leaders who prioritize diplomacy over endless conflict, peace over destruction, and human life over profit. Every day a war continues, more families face the pain of losing someone they love.
Disagreements between nations should never mean that generations must pay the price with their lives. The goal should be a future where conflicts are resolved through dialogue, not endless bloodshed.
Peace is not weakness. Choosing diplomacy and protecting human life is a responsibility the world must never forget.

Correct.
Using Starlink, a civilian commercial service, for offensive drone strikes to kill people has never been allowed, nor should it be.
Starshield, a different system, is controlled by the US government. What they decide to do is up to them.
Ukraine military violated Starlink terms of service and used it for offensive drone strikes to kill people. That loophole was closed last week.
Starlink remains critical to the defense of Ukraine, as it is the only system that cannot be jammed or blown up, at least for now. Were Starlink to be turned off, the Ukrainian front line would collapse immediately. This is NOT a threat, it is simply a statement of fact.
Starlink was also crucial to preventing Russia from overrunning Ukraine in the early days of the war, as all other means of communication were destroyed or jammed by Russia.
SpaceX has done more to defend Ukraine than any private company on Earth BY FAR.
That said, I have nothing but UTTER CONTEMPT for the virtue-signaling evil warmongers who push for endless slaughter and offer no realistic solution to the conflict. May you burn in hell.
End of story.

🚨 GREAT NEWS: President Trump says the GOP is about to win the midterms but his veto pen is LOCKED AND LOADED if they don’t
"What happens is I veto everything, and then the Democrats come and they want to make a deal… you veto, veto, veto, and then they come and they say, 'How do we get it done?' And you make a deal."
Democrats can't override a veto without two-thirds of both chambers, and they're nowhere close!
And ICE is full steam ahead regardless of what happens.
We need to vote anyway and hold the trifecta
He is the great blocker!

I’ve noticed a trend.
You can tell a lot about an individual’s happiness in life based on their reaction to the Tesla Roadster Event.
Those that are happy find it to have been unbelievable and are awe inspired.
Those that are unhappy typically say things like “what’s the point” and seem to believe that you either solve world hunger OR solve flying cars.
You are the 5 people you surround yourself with the most. I choose happy people. 😊

Jeff Bezos, asked what America's real moat is, doesn't say banks or English or natural resources. He says this:
"You can raise $50 million of seed capital to do something that only has a 10% chance of working. That's crazy. But the people who are giving you that seed capital know that their expected value is still positive."
That's the whole argument in two sentences. Everyone nods at "venture capital" like it's a line item. Bezos is saying it's the line item.
The deregulation pitch around it is weaker. "I'm very optimistic... he seems to have a lot of energy around reducing regulation" is the kind of thing a guy with a rocket company awaiting FAA approval says out loud on a stage.
He's literally talking about New Glenn sitting on the pad 20 minutes later. The optimism has a return address.
And he never connects the two machines. Permitting reform helps you build a bridge. It doesn't help a seed fund underwrite a 10% bet.
He glides between them like they're the same argument.
The part worth stealing: expected value positive on a 10% hit rate is the actual job description of early-stage investing, and most founders pitching still don't price their odds that honestly.
@JeffBezos told his own angels in '95 there was a 70% chance they'd lose it all. He raised the million anyway.
