“If They’re Willing to Die, Imagine Them in Power”: Elon Musk’s Explosive Warning After White House Shooting
Wealth of Geeks via Yahoo ^ | April 27th, 2026 | Simon Wilson

The aftermath of the White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooting has taken a sharper turn after Elon Musk dropped a statement that is now driving intense debate across social media and political circles.

In a post on X, Musk wrote, “If they’re willing to die to assassinate, imagine what they will do if they gain political power,” a line that didn’t just react to the incident, but expanded it into a much bigger warning about ideology, power, and what could come next.

That single sentence reframed the entire conversation. It moved the focus away from one gunman and toward a broader fear that violent intent, if tied to political movements, could scale into something far more dangerous.

He’s right. The monstrous Carville recently hinted at such. “Entertainers” and other nobodies have been boasting similarly for several years now.

Must’s warning is a very logical ipso facto statement that recognizes what this kind of extremism/hatred is leading to.

It is time Congress passes a bill making foreign crap miggies ineligible to run for political office until they have been a U.S. Citizen for 10 years. All the fruit pickers, law mowers and toilet scrubbers are not coming to America to work anymore. They are coming here to run for Congress and get U.S. Government jobs. These are freeloaders. It has to stop.

If these bastards regain total control of the House, Senate, and Presidency, they will make the Biden years look like a walk in the park. IRS audits for anyone who donated money to MAGA candidates. J6 trials for anyone who volunteered, or spent time campaigning for MAGA. J6 trials for anyone spouting anti-Communist rhetoric. Websites or YouTube channels with MAGA content eliminated. Libs of TikTok? Gone. Tucker Carlson? De-platformed, and/or arrested.

If their majority is strong enough, the filibuster goes, and then we get National Voting, with vote by telephone, and the elimination of the Electoral College. The Supreme Court may stop some of this. Maybe not. It will be very, very unpleasant. We might be able to stave off civil war, and take back the Presidency. We did it once.

If this ever does flare up into violent citizen combat, it’ll be a no quarters battle. I believe our side has combat experience, and more firearms and ammunition.

“Same thing applies to Islam.”

Yep. Muslims have shown that terrorism works. It gets rewarded.

They’ve pretty much taken over the west just 25 years after that supreme act of terrorism of 9/11 and many more since.

Osama is no doubt smiling in his grave.

Estimates suggest that approximately 59% to 61% of households headed by undocumented (illegal) immigrants use at least one major welfare program, often through U.S.-born children who are eligible for benefits. These households primarily utilize food assistance, Medicaid, and cash benefits, with overall welfare usage rates higher than native-born households. And because many do not pay taxes, they are using public roads and education programs for free.

Estimates of the fiscal cost of undocumented immigrants could be as much as $451 billion annually. Major costs identified include emergency Medicaid (estimated at over $7 billion in FY2021) and the significant strain on local criminal justice systems.

The explosion of cost has increased vastly over the last 25 years but the pattern has been going on since before WW II.

Anchor babies is how illegals and their extended illegal alien families access all our welfare programs. Friggin foreign Anchor babies are the golden goose of illegal immigration. As you watch all the illegals walking around, every one of them are pushing baby carriages paid for with U.S. taxpayer dollars. Most don’t have babies in them.

God bless Elon Musk.

His X platform and his posts, as well as his DOGE efforts, have stymied the left’s nefarious and evil actions more than any Republican’s actions, outside of President Donald J Trump.
