Elon Musk is the counter/opposite of George Soros. Billionaires speaking their minds, and having the cash to do so. Nothing new, a century ago richest men in the country did likewise -Edison, Westinghouse, Rockefeller, etc. Sometimes, they get it right with their criticism of current events.

Musk is a bit “out there” but he stands on his beliefs.

I am afraid that Elon Musk is going to get the jack Ma treatment by the swamp.

Basic contract law.

When donors gave money they entered into a contract. If Go Fund Me unilaterally changed the terms of that contract after the fact they are guilty of breach of contract.

If the terms of the Go Fund Me contract prohibited protest fundraising but allowed this fundraising and then cut off the fundraising, Go Fund Me is guilty of fraud.

If this fundraising was prohibited by the Go Fund Me's terms of use why did Go Fund Me allow the fundraising in the first place?

If Go Fund Me claims criminal acts negate the contract, they will have to explain why Black Lives Matter was funded during government imposed curfews, riots, destruction of property, looting, and arrests.

If this is left unchallenged, any business can confiscate anyone's money at any time for any arbitrary and capricious reason.

Now that we know that the backoffice at GoFundMe can divert funds anywhere they want anytime they want to, it’s time to demand a SAS-78 review of all of their activities. How much gets donated that ends up in the bank account of the Clinton Foundation or Anthony Fauci’s bank account?

Elon is never going to get clearance for Starship now. The bidon administration is vicious and vengeful. Fortunately, Elon has been talking with the Russia. If you believe what the msm and biden admin is telling you about Russia, you haven’t been paying attention. Look-up the Russian form of government. You’ll find it closely resembles ours, without the corruption.

GoFundMe blocked the release of almost $10 million in donations to the group earlier Friday, in connection with “the promotion of violence and harassment” during the Ottawa protest.

Information they got from the Ottowa police, who are hardly an objective source, and that does not take into account the transparently false-flag nature of the violence. It was, therefore, nothing more than a thin excuse. The government should be ashamed, the police should be ashamed, and the Post should be ashamed for parroting this rationalization uncritically.

Elon Musk, a man that is has already filled the sky 1900 private satellite to create the StarLink broadband internet system, his own private broadband internet service . The plans are to eventually have 40,000 satellites in the system. I expect that Elon Musk will soon start website hosting services as well as a private DNS service (e.g., A DNS maps the URL www.google.com to the internet protocol address 64.233.160.0). Once Starlink is fully operational it is mostly out of government control, being in space and all. If he does that he is affectively outside of government control.

Furthermore StarLink satellites have been communicating between themselves with lasers since 2021. The laser crosslinks greatly reduce the reliance of SpaceX’s internet network on ground stations. They are doing this because ground stations are expensive to deploy, and come with geographical — and political — constraints on where they can be positioned, vulnerable to seizure or destruction. Laser links allow the Starlink satellites to pass internet traffic from spacecraft to spacecraft around the world, without needing to relay the signals to a ground station connected to a terrestrial network - or government.

Musk has enough F-You money to also build server farms in space outside the control of America, the EU, and China. If Elon Musk decides to become politically active like George Soros he would crush Soros like a bug.
