I figured it out long ago, and Elon Musk can now do it at a much larger level. Free speech and citizen journalism are tremendously powerful tools and are the key ingredients to a prosperous society. If left alone, in most cases, people in collective masses become corrupt and dangerous. So all this anger toward Elon Musk is understandable, for the way he expressed himself during the budget battle in Congress over the continuing resolution that started at over 1500 pages and ended up being just a few hundred by the time it was all said and done. I explained to everyone that this was how D.O.G.E. would be effective. They didn’t need to have an office somewhere where they stamped approval in some bureaucratic way, like everything else in government. No, D.O.G.E. initiated by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy would be more like reporters, doing the job the media should have been doing all along. And because Musk bought Twitter and turned it from a three-lettered mind control device into a platform of free speech where he has over 200 million direct followers, a lot of this has caught the radical left and deep state establishment figures off guard. No, they will not be able to control any of this. They lost their power long ago and were only propped up by legacy media looking to do their dirty work. But free speech was always the key to our personal Constitution in the United States, and it has been the killer of globalism for many decades now. All people needed to do was figure out how powerful their opinions were. This is why I put so much work into my own efforts; it has worked for many years and made things better where they otherwise would languish in obscurity.
I used to participate in a lot of media, write for newspapers, and appear on television. I did a lot of radio. I was even in a few movies. So, I understand the entertainment culture and news broadcasting that most people use to interact with information very well. I am that guy who used to show up and give speeches at public gatherings, especially at school boards. And there was just something wrong with speaking to people who gave you only 3 minutes to speak. Newspapers would only give me 250 words to make my point. Radio would only put you on for around a 15-minute segment. Millions of people heard it, but the information was often lost to people before the next segment started. I learned a long time ago because I saw how things were cooking in the kitchen, and letting the bad guys determine how long you speak in public and how much you could write regarding news and opinion was wrong. And it kept people from speaking freely to other people. So, I gradually started my own blog site and launched this news and opinion effort that has been very effective for over fifteen years. I learned what worked and didn’t, and I gradually stopped appearing on other people’s radio and television shows and just started doing my own where I could write as much as I wanted and say as much as I desired about anything and everything under the sun. If you didn’t care about making money that other people would pay you for the work, then freedom would become the primary currency, and people would get different perspectives from what they previously didn’t have.
When Elon Musk bought Twitter and converted himself out of political necessity away from a left-of-center globalist to a MAGA Republican who has been accused of either being one of Trump’s kids because they have become so close after the election of 2024 or the president himself, Musk bought a free speech platform that had been used to shape public opinion and turned it into something that reflected what people actually thought. And what tyranny cannot live up to is public scrutiny. So, in many ways, Elon Musk became much more potent than any figure on planet Earth, including the President of the United States, because he could evoke what people thought about something instead of limiting what they could see and hear in a way to push them into a thought process that reflected the values of institutionalism. It was never going to work. The crazy authority figures of the world should have known better and learned their hard lessons from the Berlin Wall and the many control mechanisms they have in China. Free expression is a powerful weapon, which is why it’s the first of the Bill of Rights in the American Constitution. And if you are Elon Musk thinking about how to have governments functioning properly on faraway planets so human civilization can thrive, we must solve this problem once and for all here on Earth, here and now. We can’t allow tyrants to rule through limited knowledge and control over opinion. And that’s how these crazy, debt-ridden CRs have been passed by our government for years. They are full of garbage that nobody knows about and sold to the public with a gun to the head, saying essentially, “Pass this bill to get funding for cancer research by ignoring the funding of bio labs in Ukraine and all kinds of other dangerous stuff that the lobbyists have stuffed in there with goodies and corruption galore.”
The power Elon Musk used in December of 2024 was not the power of a president or a government insider. It was the power of opinion, and he was using free speech in the way it was designed to educate the public and let them make decisions about things themselves. And for all that, the Beltway culture withered in pain over the CR debate. And people haven’t seen anything yet for all the pain it caused. This is precisely how D.O.G.E. is going to work. It won’t be from policymakers and long meetings with peer review that government reform will be done. It will report what is happening and build public pressure to reform through free speech. I can report on this matter from my personal experience. There is nothing that any of the bad guys can do about it. They won’t be able to stand up to it, and they won’t be able to stop it. Short of turning to violence themselves, which I have had to deal with myself on many occasions. Once they realize that violence won’t get them what they want, it will make it much worse for them, and they will become very frustrated with the results, much like the way many reacted to Elon Musk during the CR negotiations in 2024. Musk doesn’t need to be president. All he needs to do is allow people to have an opinion on something and give them things to think about through his X social media platform. So what happens next will be bewildering to many people. But there is nothing they can do to stop it. Free speech is the check on power that it was designed to be. Unfortunately, in years past, too much free speech was controlled through various corporate controls directly connected to the political structure. And that allowed bad guys to do bad things. Well, not any longer. That is why 2025 will differ significantly from any other historical period. The debate over the 2024 continued resolution for congressional spending hasn’t seen anything yet. And it’s about time!
