Shoutout to Elon Musk for giving over $85 million in the Midterms so far. Elon deserves a million “Thank You’s” from everybody ❤️
Thank you @elonmusk 🙏
Elon Musk's DOGE helped end one of America’s most outdated government systems.
Deep inside a limestone mine in Pennsylvania, the U.S. government was still processing federal retirement paperwork by hand.
• Around 10,000 retirement applications were being manually processed every month.
• More than 400 million paper records were stored underground.
• Retirees often had to wait months because of this outdated paper-based system.
• Elon Musk publicly exposed how broken the process was.
Now OPM says it has reached the “Last Day of Paper,” with records being digitized and physical copies set to be shredded.
Elon Musk: “Now people can retire as soon as they want, instead of waiting 6 months for paper to be carried into a mine.”
This is exactly why DOGE was needed.
Elon Musk explains why Starlink is basically unbreakable
“There are over 10,225 Starlink satellites in low Earth orbit right now, moving at 25 times the speed of sound, Zipping around the Earth at ~550 km altitude
Because they’re so close, latency is extremely low unlike old-school geostationary satellites at 36,000 km.
They’re all interconnected with laser links, forming a giant laser mesh network in space
Even if fiber cables get cut on the ground, Starlink keeps working perfectly
High-speed internet anywhere on Earth no matter what happens below”
💍❤️ Imagine Elon Musk got down on one knee and proposed...
What would your answer be? 🥹👇
A) Yes, without a second thought ❤️
B) Yes, but I'd be speechless 😳
C) I'd need time to think 🤔
D) Sorry, my heart belongs to someone else 💔
Be honest—what's your choice? 👇✨
MAYE MUSK: In the last few years, the government paid hundreds of millions of dollars to media to attack Elon. Media trashed him daily. It makes me furious. Yet people keep buying Teslas. They love and support Elon despite nonstop negative fake stories.
Happy Birthday to Elon Musk.
From helping build Tesla into the world's leading EV company to making reusable rockets a reality at SpaceX, Musk has spent decades pushing the boundaries of innovation.
His influence has also expanded into politics and public policy, making him one of the most recognizable and influential figures of his generation.
His fortune has reached record-breaking heights, making him the world's wealthiest person for much of the past several years, even briefly hitting trillionaire status after taking SpaceX public earlier this year.
"In 5 years, digital intelligence will exceed the sum of all human intelligence. Within five years, there may be at least 100 million humanoid robots, possibly even 1 billion. The economy could double in size within 5 to 7 years because AI and robotics may increase output dramatically. The pace of change will be so fast that the world could look very different in just a few years."
— Elon Musk
"Elon Musk is a genius by all accounts. His commitment and his work, like I asked him one time about how does he learn. And the amount of research, the amount of study that he does is unheard of, but he'll always say the most important thing is imagination.
You can learn anything that you want to learn. You can study all these things that you have in a book. If you don't have the imagination to take it to another level, it doesn't mean anything. I sat down and spoke with Elon for a couple hours. It was really, really a joy."
