Elon Musk defended America better than every politician in Washington combined.

Musk: “After World War 2, the US could have basically taken over the world and any country. Like we got nukes, nobody else got nukes. We don’t even have to lose soldiers. Which country do you want?”

One nation on earth held a weapon nobody else had.

Total dominance. Zero competition. No risk of retaliation.

Every empire in history that held that kind of advantage used it.

Rome. The Mongols. The British. The Ottomans.

They conquered until they collapsed.

America had a bigger advantage than all of them combined.

And it rebuilt the countries it just defeated.

Musk: “The United States actually helped rebuild countries. So it helped rebuild Europe, it helped rebuild Japan. This is very unusual behavior, almost unprecedented.”

Almost unprecedented?

It had never happened before. Not once in 5,000 years of recorded history.

The Marshall Plan wasn’t foreign aid.

It was the most radical act of restraint any superpower ever committed.

America turned its enemies into allies. Turned rubble into economies. Turned surrender into partnership.

Germany went from ashes to the economic engine of Europe in a generation.

Japan went from unconditional surrender to the third largest economy on earth.

Three years after the war, America was flying food into Berlin.

A city in the heart of the nation that just tried to destroy it.

That’s not policy.

That’s a civilization deciding what it is at the exact moment it has the power to be anything.

You’re being told a story right now.

That America is the villain of history.

You hear it everywhere. Media. Universities. Social platforms.

Musk: “There’s always like, well America’s done bad things. Well of course America’s done bad things, but one needs to look at the whole track record.”

Every nation on earth has dark chapters. Every single one.

The difference is what a country does when nobody can stop it.

And when nobody could stop America, it fed its enemies and rebuilt their cities.

Musk: “The history of China suggests that China is not acquisitive. Meaning they’re not going to go out and invade a whole bunch of countries.”

Probably right.

China has historically built walls, not fleets.

But the real question isn’t about borders anymore.

We’re approaching a moment that mirrors 1945 in ways nobody has fully processed yet.

AI is going to give a handful of people a power advantage that makes nuclear monopoly look quaint.

If someone is going to hold that kind of power, who do you want it to be?

The country that conquered when it could? Or the one that rebuilt when it didn’t have to?

Every alliance. Every trade route. Every economy.

Billions lifted out of poverty.

All of it traces back to one act of restraint that had never been done before.

And carries no guarantee of being repeated.

The most powerful thing America ever did wasn’t building the bomb.

It was what it didn’t do after.

Elon Musk used a joke to perform an autopsy on the American economy.

Two economists go for a hike. They find a pile of shit. One pays the other $100 to eat it.

They keep walking. Find another pile. The second economist pays $100 back to eat that one.

They stop. Neither man gained a dollar. Both ate shit for nothing.

But on paper they just generated $200 in GDP.

Musk: “That basically would count as a job. This is to illustrate the absurdity of economics.”

That is not a punchline. That is the operating system of the federal government.

Every time a politician celebrates “record job creation” this is what they are describing. Not output. Not value. Not progress. Motion.

The entire bureaucratic machine exists to manufacture friction and then invoice for it.

Compliance layers built to justify the next compliance layer. Oversight committees that produce nothing but the need for more oversight. Consulting firms hired to audit the work of other consulting firms.

Trillions circulating through systems that have never produced a single thing you can hold in your hands. But the GDP number ticks up. So everyone applauds.

The shit gets eaten. The scoreboard moves. Nobody asks what actually got built.

This is why Washington treats AI like a five alarm fire.

AI does not play the friction game. It does not form a committee. It does not schedule a review. It does not file 400 pages of paperwork no one will ever read.

It just solves the problem.

And that is the one thing the machine cannot survive.

The government does not tax results. It taxes the process. The longer the process, the deeper the cut.

AI compresses a ten day workflow into seconds. There is nothing left to bill. Nothing left to tax. Nothing left to skim.

So they will spend the next decade warning you that AI threatens the economy.

What they will never say is what it actually threatens.

The illusion that activity equals progress.

The $200 economy where both men ate shit and called it a job.

The machines are not coming for your purpose.

They are coming to prove that half the economy never had one.

@DefiantLs Fuck off, Pelley. CBS RAILROADED the most seasoned, conscientious war correspondent when they dumped @laralogan
Where were you to defend her? You couldn't match her work or integrity. Pelley is a fake. Period.

[Tom Davis @Mistletoe_Tom]

@GioBruno1600 Lesley Stahl is biased.
Lesley Stahl is dishonest.
Lesley Stahl is NOT fair.
And Lesley Stahl is a disgrace to journalism.

[Tom Davis @Mistletoe_Tom]

@WesternLensman If Pelley is unaware of polls or other research that shows overwhelming distrust of the MSM and media bias, then he is grossly unaware of the country.
It's indicative of his being out of touch, if truly unaware. Or blindly deceitful if he ignores it.
Unprofessional either way.

[Tom Davis @Mistletoe_Tom]

@jenpiacenti The nearest thing to romance in the history of MSG was Sinatra making thousands of fans swoon to his songs. I actually remember watching this on tv as Howard Cosell introduced him like it was a heavyweight fight.
(The concert was called The Main Event.)

@maddenifico The best things I've seen on CBS:
- The Masters tournament
- NFL games
- March Madness

The news has been lib biased trash for decades.
Sitcoms? Nothing good since Big Bang.
Late Night? More biased garbage.

CBS is mostly liberal BS.

[Tom Davis @Mistletoe_Tom]

@ed_franco @MikeLevin Did you demand the same when democrats staunch ally Sumner Redstone controlled CBS, MTV, Nickelodeon, VIACOM, National Amusements, Paramount, and a slew of other media?
It's not the right that has the media in its control. It's the left.
Stop peddling BS.

[Tom Davis @Mistletoe_Tom]

@MikeLevin Reminder: Pelley has no integrity.
He is part of the liberal MSM that feeds the country fake news. The Democratic party has a megaphone with biased news readers like Scott Pelley.
Democrats are the greatest threat to America. Pelley is proof.

@jenpiacenti Tigers had the day off after a surprising sweep of the first place Rays, and I'm not going to pretend to enjoy watching someone else's favorite team.

And the sun has already set here, so sprinklers aren't an option.

So it's ice cream and watching the Stanley Cup Game 2 for me.

[Tom Davis @Mistletoe_Tom]

@NormOrnstein Yeah. Take your favorite twenty-two staff members and call it: "This Hour Has 22 Morons."

[Tom Davis @Mistletoe_Tom]

@4TiffanyJustice @megynkelly @ScottPelley Liberals in fake news MSM defend the Democratic party platform. Whether it means burying the truth or advancing bald-faced lies, that's what they do.
Democrats are the greatest threat to America. Pelley is proof.

[Tom Davis @Mistletoe_Tom]

@connichung1 Good riddance.
By the way, when Catherine Herridge was fired, I didn't see Pelley come to her defense. And you didn't post anything either.

[Tom Davis @Mistletoe_Tom]

@Jamie_redsox According to Michigan's gov:

[Tom Davis @Mistletoe_Tom]

@Meliss14725495 @DawgsWilliam @DylanByers Go fuck off.

[Tom Davis @Mistletoe_Tom]

@Meliss14725495 @DawgsWilliam @DylanByers You're a lifelong idiot and liar.

[Tom Davis @Mistletoe_Tom]

@Meliss14725495 @DawgsWilliam @DylanByers Don't lie about me, bitch.
I care about the truth. You believe in lies. Not me.
I put my education to good use and I know when it's obvious that people are lying.
Trump isn't a pedo.
You lie.

[Tom Davis @Mistletoe_Tom]

@Meliss14725495 @DawgsWilliam @DylanByers You're wrong again. And again. And again.
You ought to have that checked.

[Tom Davis @Mistletoe_Tom]

@Meliss14725495 @DawgsWilliam @DylanByers Wrong. As with all the lies aimed at Trump, the "credible" gets quickly discredited. Decades pass before allegations are made? Right. Because they didn't want to sue a billionaire decades ago when it allegedly happened. No, wait until he runs for president.
Pull your head out.🤡

[Tom Davis @Mistletoe_Tom]

@DawgsWilliam @DylanByers Biden deserved the hits. And it wasn't 60 Minutes or the liberal MSM delivering hits on him as they should have if they were reporting truth.
The worst stories about Trump are lies generated by democrats. It's sad you are unable to tell truth from fiction.
The cult is yours. 🤡
