“A society that robs an individual of the product of his effort…is not strictly speaking a society, but a mob held together by institutionalized gang violence.” – Ayn Rand
Those of us in the Baby Boomer generation grew up in a political environment that was mostly dominated by the Democrat party. Almost all of our fathers were veterans of either World War II or the Korean War and a few were in both wars. But the Democrat party then, bares little resemblance to today’s progressive, woke, Neo-communist, Democrat party of today.
Back in the forties, fifties and sixties, Democrats were strong supporters of Free Speech. Today they want to ban any speech they disagree with. They want to disallow any speech that they deem “hate speech”. These so-called progressives want to prohibit “disinformation”, which is any information that contradicts their slanted point of view.
When Nixon was President, the Democrats rightfully went ballistic when the President asked the IRS to look at the taxes of some of his political foes. Today’s Democrat presidents, starting with Obama, have weaponized the IRS, FBI, CIA, the Justice Department and other federal bureaucracies to go after Republicans, entrepreneurs, and reporters who aren’t in their pocket.
During the 2020 election period, Democrats worked around the Constitution to suppress stories of Joe Biden and his son, Hunter, his computer and their corruption. They had privately owned social media companies ban these stories and had them claim that all of this was Russian disinformation. With the new presidential election cycle starting, they will attempt to suppress other reports that show the corruption of Democrats. This will be much harder to do now since Elon Musk bought Twitter, (now X).
The weaponized Biden federal government is trying to intimidate Musk with a series of attacks from the federal bureaucracy. In October of this year, the Security and Exchange Commission filed a suit against Elon Musk to force him to testify about the purchase of Twitter. Earlier this year, the Federal Trade Commission demanded that Twitter, (X), release the names of all the journalists who were involved in the “Twitter files” that exposed the blacklisting of information that Twitter was asked to suppress by the government as disinformation.
In August of this year the Department of Justice sued Space X, which is an Elon Musk owned company, for not hiring refugees and those who seek asylum in the US. Also that month saw the Department of Justice and the Security Exchange Commission start investigations of Musk company, Tesla, for the misuse of company funds and the claimed battery range of the Tesla.
This month, for the third time in a year US Security and Exchange Commission has been urged to investigate Elon Musk’s start up company, Neuralink, because it has been alleged that Musk lied to investors about the death of monkeys tested for the Neuralink brain chip. In September of this year the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission sued Tesla for “tolerating widespread harassment” of Black employees. In November of this year, the so-called mainstream media attacked Musk for an alleged antisemitic post he responded to on X. Many of the woke corporations started a boycott of X by pulling their advertising. None of these government and corporate attacks occurred before Elon Musk bought Twitter and turned it into a true, non-censoring, free speech platform.
These are overt, political attacks on Musk. These are similar to the assaults against Donald Trump and his businesses. It is apparent that the government and their corporate co-conspirators are trying to rob successful individual(s) of the product of their hard work – to paraphrase Ayn Rand. If the combined forces of a government and corporate cabal, with all of their resources, can do that to these two highly visible, successful men, how many others are they attacking that we never hear about? It is not a political party anymore, its a Democrat mob.…Read more by
