Elon Musk is at the center of a growing critique alleging systemic corruption, exploitation, and unchecked power within U.S. politics and government. The transcript claims Musk profited billions from taxpayer-funded investments during the Trump administration, notably through a $16 billion return on his investments, and operates without proper oversight or accountability. Critics argue that Musk, an illegal immigrant who entered the U.S. on a student visa, has exploited public resources through massive state subsidies, tax breaks, and political connections—such as his alliance with Texas Governor Ken Paxton and the Terafab project in Grimes County. The narrative cites his alleged shutdown of Starshield, which reportedly led to civilian deaths in Ukraine, and his fear of investigation, including claims he would go to prison if Kamala Harris wins. Musk’s influence is portrayed as deeply embedded in political and corporate power, with critics asserting that he and Peter Thiel represent a dangerous oligarchic model that undermines democratic accountability. The argument calls for legal reforms, especially to the presidential pardon power, and urges the Democrats to prosecute Musk and similar figures internationally, such as through the International Criminal Court. The piece frames Musk not as a representative of immigrant labor, but as a parasitic figure exploiting public funds and institutions, while calling for political accountability, transparency, and electoral action to dismantle his influence.
there's one immigrant that i can't stand there's one immigrant that i want investigated
from top to bottom and i think i am not alone in this and i think we all can see that he's
terrified of accountability he even said during the 2024 election that if kamala harris won he'd
probably go to prison seems like a weird thing to say right well elon musk has bought up american
politicians and he has profited massively off of the united states taxpayer in his life and he has
profited even more during the second trump administration pop this up the new republic
is reporting musk invested 736 million in the second trump administration and got back 16.3
billion a return of two thousand two
hundred percent he made off with 16 billion dollars of taxpayer money and this is the
political party that has the audacity to say that immigrants are taking your money without properly
identifying the main immigrant that is taking your money and per elon's own brother they were illegal
immigrants and that's on video we played it here josh that's right and and that that
gets back to him coming over and i think it was 1995 enrolled in stanford on a student visa never
went to stanford for five or six years worked which means you're working in this country
illegally and then we have the audacity to speak about deporting immigrants and investigating elon
omar at the same time you have this person involved in our government who's making billions
of dollars uh and it's no surprise here musk is someone that is that broken
that makes that much money um should have no part in government and this whole whole part with
oligarchs and how they've infiltrated government has to be investigated and meted out to where we
stop this this ai board that that goes back and forth with donald trump that he doesn't
want to regulate and they're all making billions of dollars i mean it's all self-dealing and just
has to stop and elon of course is terrified um this is before we can really talk about doge he's
he not only did he get 16 billion dollars of taxpayer money that he extracted
uh from the american taxpayer because he feels entitled um he started doge and he sent he and
big balls went in and got our information allegedly and probably shut down a lot of
investigations into himself remember i told you that part that he said if kamala wins i'm
probably going to prison that's because there were government investigations into these agencies
that he shut down were investigating him so we have allowed one immigrant to do all of the things
that maga campaigns against and he is their poster boy all right i mean if you want to talk about
people that i think need to be deported and investigated it's him but trump owes elon
a lot because elon invested into trump and trump is going to preemptively pardon elon let's play the
clip and they want to uh arrest elon musk they want to seize his uh factories uh nationalized spacex
it's talk but if it is talk we'll have to protect them big balls they want to arrest him
anyone around you who who enabled you well i don't know about me i can tell you this
uh if they do we just have to protect those people how do you do that can
you preemptively pardon them like that's what biden did he gave everybody a pardon
josh what if in the lame duck term in in february of 2027 trump pardons elon can he do that
well he can do that and and this brings up a broader question as to reform of this presidential
pardon power because it's an absolute privilege under the constitution for a president to do this
but what what i've all often wondered in my mind is if you have two people in a conspiracy together
the president and elon musk and donald trump orders elon musk to perform a criminal act
and elon musk does it can donald trump then pardon elon musk for performing a criminal
act in which donald trump is also a co-conspirator and some of this intertwines back to trump bus
where in in trump's official capacity he's granted absolute immunity
thanks to john roberts and so you you get into this thing but it's clear that the pardon power
wasn't intended for co-conspirators for criminals to act in concert with each other for the president
to order someone like elon musk or allow him or conspire or agree with him to perform criminal acts
we haven't even got to the starlink starshield issue that he needs a huge pardon for uh but but
it's unclear you've never had a president that's been in a conspiracy with others and then pardon
those same co-conspirators i mean it's kind of absurd it's a mind bender there's no authority on
it but one thing that i think is really important is that there is no authority on the president
one thing we agree on is the democrats are going to have to initiate uh some reform to the
presidential presidential pardon power for sure that's going to have to be a priority and i think
the democrats at some point we need to rejoin and there's probably been 2028 we need to rejoin the
international criminal court and send all these to the hague every last one of them
they are international war criminals it's my understanding from reporting that elon musk
shut down uh the the service of uh star shield for ukraine and innocent ukrainians died because of
that that this one man made that decision and he did that and people are dead and he does all of
this stuff with impunity and i think they all need to go to the hague every last one of them
and when he did that they asked donald trump about that and he didn't know if you remember
that interview donald trump didn't know who had done it and and we're thinking how does the president not
know how does this person like elon musk who's unelected have that much power when the people
haven't given him any power he's not confirmed for any position he can do all of this stuff unchecked
unvetted by any other third party it's insane it's it's really crazy and frightening and
because he's obviously a disturbed person yeah all right and then now let's look at elon spending
this cycle prim thacker friend of the show reporter over at zateo posted this pop this up this is in
saying musk has spent 474 million to help trump and the gop win the midterms roughly 0.05 percent
of his net worth if you compare his worth to the median americans must political spending this
election cycle is the equivalent to a hundred and sixteen dollars
and here's what is just a fascinating psychological case study for me all of these
capitalists supporters of oligarchy with absolutely zero capital that are all bang up
harden the paint for elon musk that is just absolutely like cuck central i mean i i when
i see it i'm like why are you supporting him he doesn't give a about you the fact
that some people think that trump vance musk teal bezos give a
about them it it it's really a fascinating psychological case study i guess they want to be
close to power or exploitation so that it can assuage the feelings of their being exploited
yeah the only thing i can think of too i mean it's obviously cold as we talk about but
there's a thing in recovery where like because i don't drink or use drugs anymore but back
when i did i would always navigate and find my way toward people that were like me that were broken i
was i would hang out with those people spend time with those people because we had that in common the
brokenness that caused us to drink and or use drugs to me i could equate that to the maga movement like
these people are all so broken that they get comfort being around people just like them they
feed off of each other and if they segue out of that into mainstream americans something's too
different they're afraid of that afraid of that change afraid of that provoking thought they may
have to engage in um so that's my two cents on it i don't know if you have any questions about that
enough no i think it makes perfect sense i think it makes absolutely perfect sense because if
they're around people that are morally clear that would feel uncomfortable they would feel threatened
yeah and it would be like well this doesn't feel good but if they're around a bunch of if you're
a piece of and you're around a bunch of pieces of then it just confirms that being a
piece of is okay yeah um all right and this is why
right here this is why elon musk is panicking today and why texas is musk's financial
vulnerability pop this up this is the whole ball game you guys elon musk's panic is tied to the
fact that texas has become the literal epicenter of his business empire which is why he's all chips
in on uh corrupt ken paxton so you have the terafab project which is musk's 16.8 billion
joint spacex tesla semiconductor and ai ecosystem in grimes county relies heavily
on a 1.66 billion local tax break and stock
state grants. See, there's the grift. This guy is a parasite, an immigrant parasite sucking off the
American taxpayer. It's not the black and brown people that come over here that work their
fucking asses off. It is this guy. He is the problem. Local lawsuits are attempting to dismantle
these deals and expose confidential negotiations. Next up, we have legal and regulatory defense.
Republican Attorney General Ken Paxton has actively used his office to shield SpaceX from
public records, disclosures, and environmental security. If Paxton loses his competitive Senate
race to Democrat James Tallarico, Musk loses his primary legal shield in the state. State subsidies.
Starlink is facing intense scrutiny over a $110 million
state broadband grant. A shift in the state legislature puts these lucrative state-level
subsidies and contracts at risk of being audited or canceled. Do you see this? He receives taxpayer
money, fears of being audited, and fears of transparency, and fears of oversight. Next up,
land and environmental battling. SpaceX's Boca Chica launch site is locked in fierce ongoing disputes with local
conservationists over land and water use, an issue Texas Democrats are actively weaponizing to turn voters
against him. And lastly, the Tesla SpaceX merger. Musk is planning a massive corporate consolidation
to use Tesla's cash reserves to fund SpaceX. This maneuver requires smooth state and federal
regulatory approval, which a hostile political shift would heavily disrupt.
Elon Musk doesn't give a shit about Texas, except for extracting money and subsidies and resources from the state. He is a parasite of the highest order. He is the immigrant, the poster board. It's one person, he and Peter Thiel. Those are the two that need to be deported. They're the ones who are fucking you over, not the people who come over here and work their ass off.
Laboring. It's these guys. Josh, final words.
Well, and he did this with Donald Trump. He supported him and did the same thing,
grifted. And now he's doing this with Kim Paxton in Texas on a state level because he's set up there.
Nobody could look at Kim Paxton and say, God, that's my candidate. What a great guy. I really
want to support him. I believe in his cause. I'm going to die on that hill. Nobody believes that.
He's buying himself a senator to finagle through all of
those things you just went through and make money and grift off the state of Texas. And I cannot wait
till Tallarico kicks his ass, Kim Paxton's ass, puts a fork in him. And then we can celebrate
Elon Musk and his retreat from the hills of Austin, Texas to Mar-a-Lago, where he'll have to find a new
home base and get the fuck out of Texas. I completely agree. Texas, we are rooting
for you. You can do this. We're nervous wrecks today. We're cranking out episodes.
