If the GOP can’t pass a bill supported by 85% of America while owning the House, Senate, Presidency, and SCOTUS then I think it’s fair to question the entire democratic system
This is the final straw.
Because of this law and the many others that preceded it, attacking both families and companies, SpaceX will now move its HQ from Hawthorne, California, to Starbase, Texas.
What would America look like if 55 million Visas were cancelled and all the illegals were deported?
Let's deep dive it.
If 55 million visas were cancelled overnight and all the illegals were deported, America would change in ways few could imagine.
At first it would look chaotic. Hospitals short on nurses. Tech firms unable to staff support teams. Crops left to rot because migrant labor vanished. For a few months, the headlines would scream collapse. But then something else would happen.
Wages would climb. Automation would soar. The price of an hour of work would be valuable. Trades and apprenticeships would surge. Competence and ownership would return to our society. Hospitals could bill people instead of government. Colleges that depended on foreign tuition would close, but community colleges would thrive again as Americans re-trained. Housing prices in major cities would fall for the first time in decades. Renters would finally have leverage. Families that were priced out could buy homes again.
The GDP might dip at first, but the money would start circulating locally. People who thought they’d never matter in the economy would suddenly be needed again. The country would remember how to build, grow, fix, and teach without importing labor. It wouldn’t be easy, but it would be ours.

If the socialists had their way, Elon would have had his paypal profits taken and redistributed for the greater good.
The world would never have seen Tesla, nor SpaceX.
And the world wouldn't know it, because they were uncreated, and thus unseen.
Imagine the companies that don't exist, because Washington destroyed them before they were born.
Again for those in the back, Elon once offered to cut a check for $6 BILLION to the WFB to "eliminate World hunger" as they said the money could. His one condition was that the accounting was public.
They did not accept.
The year is 1949.
The Nobel Prize in Medicine has just gone to the man who invented the lobotomy. Your doctor suggests one for your sister, who has not been herself since the baby came. It is the most celebrated advance in psychiatry of the age, and he is simply current. By the time the prize curdles into an embarrassment, close to twenty thousand Americans have had the operation, and proportionally more here in Britain.
The year is 1956.
Lay the baby down on his front, the doctor says. So does the most trusted childcare book ever written, the one on every new mother's shelf. On his back he might choke, the reasoning goes. Millions obey. The advice holds for nearly thirty years, long after the evidence has quietly turned, and a generation of cot deaths is counted before anyone thinks to roll the babies over.
The year is 1966.
A bestselling book informs your wife that menopause is a disease, that she is, in the author's word, a castrate, and that a small daily pill will keep her youthful and tolerable to live with. Her doctor agrees. The drug becomes one of the most prescribed in the country. Nobody mentions that the author sat on the payroll of the company that made it. That detail surfaces decades later, in the same year the landmark trial is halted early for raising rates of breast cancer, stroke and clots.
The year is 1979.
Your ulcer is caused by stress and sharp food, the doctor explains. Calm down, drink milk, take the antacid that happens to be the best-selling medicine on earth. Two Australians are about to prove that most ulcers are caused by a bacterium and cured by a fortnight of antibiotics. The profession laughs. One of them eventually drinks a beaker of the stuff to settle the matter. The establishment takes the better part of twenty years to stop laughing. The Nobel lands in 2005.
The year is 1985.
Butter is dangerous, the doctor says. Switch to margarine, it is modern, it is heart-healthy, the experts are united. The spread he nudges you toward is loaded with trans fats, which the next decade will identify as the genuinely dangerous one, and which will eventually be banned outright. The butter goes quietly back in the fridge. No correction is ever printed at the volume of the original warning.
The year is 1992.
There is a pyramid on the surgery wall, and the very same one in your grandchild's classroom. Bread, cereal, rice and pasta form the broad virtuous base, up to eleven servings a day. Fat is exiled to the tiny tip. The chart was reportedly held back a year while the relevant industries had their say. It is wrong at the bottom and wrong at the top.
Now it is today.
Your doctor has new guidelines, new studies, a fresh consensus, delivered with precisely the steady confidence of every guideline above. He believes it, and he has good reason to. So did every doctor in this thread. None of them were villains. Each was sincere, most were kind, and all were certain, reading from a map that somebody else had drawn and handed them. That is the part worth sitting with.
So when the man in the white coat tells you what to eat, what to fear, and what to swallow every morning for the rest of your life, you are allowed to ask. Who paid for the study. What the evidence says beneath the headline. What he was just as certain about thirty years ago, and where that advice sits now.
Then make up your own mind. Call it scepticism, or call it whatever your grandmother called it when she ignored the advert, kept the butter where it was, and lived to ninety-one.
It has outlasted every consensus on this list. It will outlast this one too.
> new STD
> the bacteria jumped to a human who had “””direct close contact””” with an infected animal and has now gone human-to-human
> only gay men are getting it
> is spreading through bathhouses
> causes disgusting skin lesions
they’re baking AIDS from scratch again.
Actually, about this:
Elon once offered the UN $6 billion for World Hunger in 2021 - on the condition that the UN provided Open Source Accounting and allowed him or anyone else to track and audit exactly where the money was spent on.
Which I think is a fair request considering that UN had multiple high-profile embezzlement cases such as what happened in Somalia in 2010 and Ethiopia in recent years. There's even one being actively probed right now in Sudan.
UN has not have a good track record of monitoring where other people's money go to, and that's an understatement.
The UN's response? They said they would at best, offer summaries and high-level category reports...which is not very helpful. It was also not going to be an open ledger, so no one outside of UN leadership could see where the money would go to.
So...the offer fell through because the UN was unable to provide trackable details on where the money goes to, making auditing extremely difficult. The rest is history, which is now being actively memory-holed by you OP.
Sure hate Elon that he bought Twitter, at least be fair.
First Trump gets attacked for ignoring diplomacy, now they’re attacking him for meeting with the Aldmeri Dominion to discuss the White-Gold Concordat, he just can’t win
The 'nothing will ever happen' crowd should always be ignored, as a rule.
it's been said
"There are decades where nothing happens; and then there are weeks where decades happen", and it's so plainly the truth.
Our clever foes have worked desperately to keep one hundred different lids on one hundred different kettles, swiftly coming to a boil..
and yes, for years, they've managed it..
but to assume they'll be able to do this indefinitely, forever, is the most historically illiterate (and defeatist, and nihilistic, and illogical) stance imaginable.
Don't be the small, demoralizing fool, at the moment when the opposite is most needed.
I'm old enough to remember the fake news media working with the Biden Administration to gaslight TF out of the world RE: Biolabs in Ukraine, attempting to try and convince everyone it was just more Russian disnformation.
Turns out all of those "conspiracy theorists" were right.
Those men who came before us considered it the peak of civilized and noble behavior to protect our women and children from harm, by any means.. with extreme violence, if necessary.
Our age attempts to sell us the idea that the peak of civilized behavior is to stand back and allow it.
It's hard to imagine a more transparent indicator of weakness, or contagious mental illness..
Most in our circles claim to recognize that we live in occupied nations, with largely hijacked cultures, authored and oriented by writers and directors and stage managers that openly despise us.
Why, then, do so few seem to recognize how many figures on the 'right' seem to be custom-tailored degenerate subversives - whose sole function appears to be to confuse, demoralize, dishearten, and further degenerate?
Teaching young men to become 'hustlers' to obsess over Bugattis, to 'lookmaxx' like mentally unwell teenage girls, to praise our worst and most devoted enemies and shill their merchandise while claiming they have 'aura', to embrace certain flavors and colors of the multicultural invasion because they're 'chillers' and not like all the others..
I've said it before, but it should be said again and again, regularly:
it almost seems like there's some network of homosexual theater kids and social-climbers mutually boosting one another into the public eye, backed by unseen forces and capital, devoted to derailing and ultimately crushing the spirit and lifeforce and forward-inertia of young men.
How happy these parasitic puppetmasters must be, as these clowns ascend..
how gleefully they must rub their hands together, when they see another bright-eyed but impressionable young man sprinting down these dead ends, destined for the void..
