Elon Musk
- See also: Conservative of the Year 2023 - Musk finished in the top 6.
Elon Musk (born June 28, 1971, in South Africa) is an American businessman and inventor ranked as the wealthiest man in the world, who ostensibly supports freedom of speech and opposed tyrannical lockdowns during COVID-19. Musk campaigned tirelessly for Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election,[1] such as holding a town hall in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania on Oct. 26, 2024, which was viewed by 5.9 million times on X.[2] One commentator dubbed Elon Musk the "African American of the Year" for 2022.[3]
Musk apparently does not hire conservatives in key positions, and is a cheerleader for giving foreigners top jobs in America. He wants expanded use of visas to import foreigners, and most of his Tesla cars are made in China. This is contrary to the America First position of MAGA supporters.
While Musk is increasingly conservative, there are still liberals running his companies. "Personel is policy,"[4] yet Musk has not hired conservatives in leadership positions in his companies or projects. In later December, Musk's platform X reportedly downgraded a prominent critic of Musk's pro-immigration, pro-H-1B visa stance.
His immense wealth is based mostly on the meteoric rise in value of the Tesla Motors electric car company, and also the privately held SpaceX. He is also a co-founder of PayPal, a CEO for SpaceX, and chairman of SolarCity. His purchase of Twitter ushered in an era of glasnost from globalist totalitarian control of the social media platform. He supposedly is "socially liberal and fiscally conservative"[5] but endorsed hyperinflationist Andrew Yang for the Democratic party nomination in the 2020 presidential election. He believes in man-made global warming. Musk was born in South Africa, raised in Canada and resided in Los Angeles before moving in 2020 to Texas. As of 2022, he is the wealthiest man in the world, and he likes to comment on chess and debate Gary Kasparov.
To his further credit, Musk describes himself as a "free speech absolutist,"[6] and Musk ended Twitter's ban on Donald Trump, despite not yet personally endorsing Trump.

DOGE
Within hours of taking office on 20 January, 2025 President Donald Trump signed an executive order changing the United States Digital Service (USDS), created in 2014 by Barack Obama, to the United States DOGE Service (USDS).[7] DOGE was originally founded within the Executive Offices of the White House with a staff of 20. On February 7, 2025 President Trump gave DOGE chief executive Elon Musk authority to add an extra 45 staff, recruited from Musk's various tech businesses.
Purchase of Twitter
On April 25, 2022, it was announced that Musk had purchased social media platform Twitter for $43 billion, with the intent of ending liberal control of the platform (along with its related censorship and silencing of conservative voices and factual information in favor of promoting and encouraging liberal voices) and restoring free speech.[8] Earlier in the month, Musk had become the biggest single shareholder of Twitter (with 9.2% of the shares, well over the 2.25% held at the time by Twitter co-founder and former CEO Jack Dorsey) when he bought 73 million shares of stock in the company (worth $2.89 billion),[9] but when he attempted to buy more shares, he ran into resistance from several Saudi Arabian Twitter shareholders, which caused Twitter stock to fall.[10] To prevent Musk from buying more shares, Twitter tried to entice him with a seat on its board of directors as part of a deal that would keep him from owning more than 14.9% of its common stock,[11] but Musk turned down that offer, thereby allowing him to buy more Twitter stock.[12] In response, bitter leftist Twitter shareholders attempted to sue Musk for delaying in disclosing the amount of stock he owned in the company.[13]
When Musk announced plans to purchase Twitter outright and turn it into a private company,[14] pro-censorship/anti-free speech leftist company management decided to attempt to implement a "poison pill" to sabotage the transaction and fight for censorship and silencing of conservative voices and allowing the voices of liberals and other enemies of freedom to flourish[15] rather than allow Musk, who is anti-censorship and favors free speech, to buy the company and put an end to that censorship.[16] In response to the "poison pill" move by Twitter, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis threatened to hold the company's board of directors legally accountable for breaching their fiduciary duty.[17] Musk later announced that he would be bringing investor partners into his Twitter bid to thwart the company's "poison pill" sabotage attempt, whose legality was questioned by the Gateway Pundit.[18] In an attempt to protect Twitter and its anti-free speech mandate against a Musk takeover, the Biden regime-controlled Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission tried to step in by launching frivolous sham investigations against Musk.[19]
When Musk's purchase of Twitter became official, pearl-clutching liberals went into meltdown mode[20] over their loss of control of one of their means of censoring free speech and silencing conservative voices/opinions and factual information.[8] President Donald Trump congratulated Musk on his purchase of Twitter, saying of him "...I hope Elon buys Twitter because he’ll make improvements to it and he is a good man," but he added that he will not return to Twitter, even with the restoration of his account there, choosing instead to stay with his own social media platform Truth Social.[21] As part of the announcement of his Twitter purchase, Musk said, "Free speech is the bedrock of a functioning democracy, and Twitter is the digital town square where matters vital to the future of humanity are debated...", adding in a tweet that "I hope that even my worst critics remain on Twitter, because that is what free speech means".[22] Among the liberals having tantrums over Musk's purchase of Twitter are actress and leftist activist Jameela Jamil, who rage-quit the platform over the announcement in a petulant tweet,[23] liberal race activist Shaun King (a white man who claims to be "black"), who also threw an online hissy-fit and rage-quit Twitter via deletion of his account in response to the Musk purchase,[24] and other prominent liberals with online presences such as Joy Reid, Howard Dean, NBC "journalist"/hack Ben Collins, CNN hack Brian Stelter, former Twitter employees Israel Camacho and Laura Gomez and several members of hate group Antifa.[25]
Liberal retaliation
Liberals retaliated against Musk for exposing the liberal censorship at Twitter. Liberal retaliation against Musk included driving down, pun intended, the price of Tesla stock by 90%, such that Musk as its largest stockholder lost $200 billion in 2022.

Political leanings
Despite his good cheer towards liberals, they were quoted as boycotting Twitter after he purchased it. Joe Biden ranted against Musk at a fundraiser on Nov. 4, 2022:
"Now what are we all worried about? Elon Musk goes out and buys an outfit that sends and spews lies all across the world."[26]On May 18, 2022, Musk tweeted:[27]
In the past I voted Democrat, because they were (mostly) the kindness party.But they have become the party of division & hate, so I can no longer support them and will vote Republican.
Now, watch their dirty tricks campaign against me unfold …
On May 18, 2022, Musk announced that he is switching to the Republican Party, because Democrats "have become the party of division & hate, so I can no longer support them and will vote Republican."[28] The Democrats, however, have always been the party of division and hate, since their history as the party of racism, racial supremacy, the first Confederacy, Jim Crow and racial segregation with the same name, Ku Klux Klan, to their "modern" and not less divisive and hateful political correctness and wokeism, neo-puritanism , feminism (misandry), anti-America and West rhetoric, narrative and propaganda, Critical Race Theory (or simply "racism"), "reverse racism" (again, just "racism"), "anti-racist" racial segregation, promotion of pedophilia, child grooming, child transgenderism and puberty blockers, and support, creation and funding of terrorist and marxist/Islamic/racial supremacist groups and organizations (Antifa, BLM, ISIS).
On June 15, 2022, Elon Musk announced that he voted for Mayra Flores in Texas, and that was the first time he voted for a Republican candidate. He also said that he supports Red Wave in November,[29] and he is leaning toward Ron DeSantis in 2024 presidential elections.[30]
Free markets
On April 2024, Elon Musk and Argentina's Javier Milei met In Texas, and discussed boosting free markets.[31]
Depopulation crisis
“One of the biggest risks to civilization is the low birth rate and rapidly declining birthrate.” - Elon Musk[32]

Corporate cronyism and the Ukraine war
- See also: NATO war in Ukraine
Musk companies are thriving due to government subsidies. Tesla Motors and SolarCity have taken a huge financial hit in 2016. Both these companies are based on the green energy movement and are being punished by the markets due to extremely low oil prices. Musk lost a personal fortune upwards of $4 billion. In 2017, Tesla Motors would acquire all of SolarCity stocks. The highly anticipated Tesla Model 3 starts shipping at the end of July. The stock valuation of Tesla, which may be due to its software development, far exceeds that of GM, Ford, and Chrysler.
Despite how Musk quickly donated communications equipment worth many millions of dollars to Ukraine's regime, Zelenskyy turned sharply against Musk when in October 2022 he proposed terms for peace in the Russia-Ukraine war.[35] Musk ended up continuing to provide his Starlink service longer than he wanted to, at an estimated cost to Musk of $400 million over the next 12 months:[36]
“ | The hell with it … even though Starlink is still losing money & other companies are getting billions of taxpayer $, we’ll just keep funding Ukraine govt for free.[37] | ” |
The Washington Post reported Musk saying,
"Ukraine is now going too far and inviting strategic defeat...Trying to retake Crimea will cause massive death, probably fail and risk nuclear war...This would be terrible for Ukraine and Earth...How am I in this war?...Starlink was not meant to be involved in wars...It was so people can watch Netflix and chill and get online for school and do good peaceful things, not drone strikes”.[38] |
Musk tweeted in agreement as "accurate" a posting on X by David Sachs stating, "The longer this goes on, the better Russia will do...Citizens of Western countries are being told that Ukraine is winning when in fact it is losing...We are told that there is no opportunity to make peace when in fact we have rejected multiple opportunities for a negotiated settlement...When the war is finally lost, when the whole country lays in smoldering ruins on a funeral pyre of their own making, the liars will say: 'Well we tried”.[39]
2024 Auschwitz visit
After a visit to the Auschwitz death camp site January 2024, Elon Musk, calls Himself 'Aspirationally Jewish.'[40]
Controversies
In August 2018, reporters at leftist rags like The New York Times and other publications received word Elon Musk was relying on Jeffrey Epstein to advise him on whom to consider hiring as board chair or chief executive. Editors at the Times sent business columnist James Stewart to talk to Epstein. "I wondered why would Musk, if this is true, be using a registered sex offender to recruit new members to the board," Stewart told The Kicker, a podcast from the Columbia Journalism Review. Stewart wrote that Epstein said, "criminalizing sex with [barely] teenage girls was a cultural aberration and that at times in history it was perfectly acceptable."[41][42] However, not only the victims he was talking about, when they weren't prepuscent children,[43] were barely teenagers pretty under the average age of consent in US and North America, but accuser Virginia Robert Giuffre revealed that Epstein kept her and other girls on extreme diets to keep them looking still "prebubescent" so to abuse them.[41][42][44][45][46]
Despite being a proponent of freedom of speech online, Musk has tweeted support for the Chinese Communist Party and has even published articles in a magazine run by China's internet censorship agency.[4][5]
He smoked the marijuana during an appearance on the Joe Rogan podcast.[47]
Elon Musk indicates that he does not pray to or worship any divine being. However, he asked "any entities that [were] listening" to "bless [the] launch" before the important Falcon 1 launch by SpaceX, a company he founded in 2002.[48]
During California's Covid-19 pandemic lockdown, according to The Verge Musk said,
If somebody wants to stay in the house that’s great. They should be allowed to stay in the house and they should not be compelled to leave. But to say that they cannot leave their house and they will be arrested if they do… this is fascist. This is not democratic. This is not freedom. Give people back their g*****n freedom … Everything people have worked for all their lives is being destroyed in real time. I think the people are going to be very angry about this and are very angry.[49]
In 2021, he mocked far-left Senator Elizabeth Warren and called her "Senator Karen."[50]
In 2022, Musk acquired a 9% stake in Twitter, and subsequently its Board accepted a buy-out offer by Musk. After discovering that Twitter has been underreporting the number of its "false and spam accounts," Musk tried to terminate his deal to purchase Twitter on July 8, 2022.[51] But judicial activism then forced Musk to buy Twitter at a high price, for an enormous monetary benefit to liberals, which had the unintended beneficial effect of ending the grip of liberal censorship over this social platform.
After lending aid to Ukrainian Nazis in early 2022, Musk withdrew his support in October amidst much criticism and controversy.[52]
On October 31, 2022, Musk dressed up as a gladiator and attended Heidi Klum's Halloween party.[53]
In December 2022, Musk announced that one of his companies, Neuralink, will be ready to implant microchips for people with disabilities to eyes and spine into human brains within six months.[6]
He is also the father of 13 (or 14) children (one deceased) by different mothers, six by his first wife (of which five were by IVF - one set of twins and one set of triplets, along with the child who died) from whom he is now divorced, three by a Canadian musician (the second via a surrogate), and four by the Neuralink Director of Operations (one via surrogacy, two via IVF, and the fourth not identified as to how conceived and birthed); he has not married either of the latter two women. In 2025, another woman claimed to have given birth to who would be his 13th child; Musk has not acknowledged paternity in that case. His oldest of the twins via his first wife has come out as a trans woman.
Anti-Tesla terrorism
In March 2025,[54] radical liberal/trans activists[55] began a terror[56] campaign targeting Tesla vehicles (firebombing, shooting at), owners. Causing much damage, hurting thousands of employees. All because Musk aligned with Trump. Hollywood leftist icons such as John Cusack[57] expressing satisfaction in the general war on Tesla. The hypocrisy laid bare as it was the very left who cheered Musk just a few years back on his EV for clean energy.

- ↑ Elon Musk, on Rehabilitation Tour, Calls Himself ‘Aspirationally Jewish’, NYTimes, Jan 22, 2024.
By Andrew Higgins, Reporting from Krakow, Poland.
His remarks, part of an effort to atone for comments many called antisemitic, came after a visit to the Auschwitz death camp site. [3] Elon Musk in front of austere brick buildings. Elon Musk during a visit on Monday to the Nazi death camp at Auschwitz.Credit...Yoav Dudkevitch/European Jewish Association, via Reuters. Pushing back against accusations of antisemitism, Elon Musk has in recent months visited Israel, hosted Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at a Tesla factory in California and repeatedly insisted he bears no animus toward Jews.
On Monday, he took his penitence tour to a new level, declaring himself “aspirationally Jewish” after a visit to the former Nazi death camp Auschwitz in southern Poland, where he lit a candle in memory of the millions of Jews murdered in the Holocaust.
Mr. Musk, the owner of X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, stirred outrage — and an exodus of advertisers — in November when he endorsed an antisemitic post on X as “the actual truth.” The post accused Jewish communities of pushing “hatred against whites” and supporting the immigration of “hordes of minorities.” - ↑ 41.0 41.1 https://nytimes.com/2019/08/12/business/jeffrey-epstein-interview.html
