I originally posted these clips after the NY verdict against President Trump. Now, after the assassination attempt on President Trump, they're even more applicable to those opposed to President Trump & #MAGA. #Trump2024 1. 👉 youtube.com/shorts/7dpBnTThE… 2. 👉 youtu.be/1RHo_ZG-YGo?si=DqPB…

My mentions are now full of people calling to not to certify the elections . Which is … uh, the exact same thing the Democracy Files confidently said Trump would attempt?

Audit Texas. Hell you don’t even need to audit all of Texas. Just audit 5 small districts. Vote by vote. Unravel the entire scam. The Dems apparently used the same fraud operation throughout the country. Not complicated. Just takes someone brave enough to do it. Facts.

马斯克又有新想法:把Raptor发动机推力翻倍到500吨! 11月7日,马斯克提出一个大胆设想:为星舰助推器外圈20台发动机,开发500吨推力的Raptor 4,替代目前约250吨级的Raptor 3。 一台发动机的推力直接翻倍! 星舰的Super Heavy助推器目前有33台发动机,其中外圈20台是固定安装的,不需要左右摆动。 因此,SpaceX可以专门把外圈发动机做成大推力版本,把更多动力集中在起飞阶段。 简单算一笔账: 现在:20台 × 250吨 = 5000吨推力。 设想:20台 × 500吨 = 10000吨推力。 仅外圈20台发动机,就能多出5000吨推力。 如果其他发动机不变,整个助推器总推力理论上可以增加约60%。 这将大幅提高起飞推重比。 不是简单把发动机做大,而是要解决几个问题: 涡轮泵: 每秒输送更多液氧和液态甲烷。 燃烧室: 承受更大的压力和更高的温度。 冷却系统: 防止发动机被自身产生的高温烧坏。 结构强度: 承受更大的推力、振动和冲击。 更重要的是,必须保证发动机能够反复使用,而不是只成功点火一次。 起飞推力更大,加速更快。 有望提高星舰的有效载荷。 未来可能减少发动机数量。 如果复用效率提高,发射成本还有进一步下降的空间。

Ron Baron, whose firm is one of the big SpaceX investors, said he has modeled Starlink alone at a $14-15 trillion valuation within 10 years. Then he said that's "really light." SpaceX, the whole company, closed Friday at about $1.8T. So on his model one SpaceX business is worth about 8x everything you can buy today. Per share it's $14-15T over 13.58B shares. About $1,031 to $1,104 a share for Starlink alone, against a $134.27 stock. Put a grand in at Friday's close and you own about 7.45 shares. On Baron's Starlink number those shares are worth about $7,700 to $8,200. Starship, Grok, X, the compute and StarMind are all zero in that math. $SPCX

Elon called catching rockets with giant chopstick arms “bananas” years before SpaceX pulled it off. “We’re talking about catching the largest flying object ever made on a giant tower with chopstick arms. It’s like Karate Kid with the fly, but much bigger.” Elon Musk, Lex Fridman Podcast #252, December 2021.

@Tesla Roadster Thruster system on display at the @NASA MAX POWER event today … the Carbon Over-wrapped Pressure vessel (COPV) that holds ~10,000 lbs (~840 bar) of pressure, high-performance valves, pneumatic pipes and the nozzles. Here are some close in views of what it takes to make a Roadster fly!

So the Senate and @LeaderJohnThune had 2 years to get 'er done... many of us were begging him to use the nuclear option and pass the Save America Act. But no, the Senate was too busy being "principled" to save our country. And now, guess who is talking about repealing the filibuster? Yep, the Democrats. And just as many of us warned Thune, the other side will repeal it as soon as they have an opportunity. The opportunity is here, and I predict it will take them no more than one month after they assume office before the filibuster is repealed. After that, nothing will stop them except President Trump's veto (but he has no power to hold them back from nuking the filibuster). We need to start praying right now that the Democrats do not win in 2028 or we're done as a country. "A republic, if you can keep it."

Tesla just made two announcements 24 hours apart that tell the entire story of where the company is going. Friday, November 6: Elon Musk announced Tesla will wind down Cybertruck production around mid-2027. The line at Giga Texas the only factory that makes the Cybertruck will be dismantled to make room for increased Cybercab production. Saturday, November 7: Musk posted that the Cybertruck order backlog is “currently far more than we can make before dismantling the line.” Tesla is adding an extra production shift to try to fulfill all orders before the line shuts down. Read those two announcements together: Tesla is killing the Cybertruck production line because demand for the autonomous Cybercab is that important. But the Cybertruck has so many unfilled orders that Tesla needs to add shifts and run the factory harder just to clear the backlog before the line disappears. The truck they’re discontinuing has more orders than they can build. The taxi they’re replacing it with doesn’t have a steering wheel. One product is ending with more demand than supply. The other is beginning with more ambition than any vehicle Tesla has ever built. Here’s what’s happening, why Tesla is making this trade, and what it means for every Cybertruck reservation holder racing against a June 2027 deadline 🧵

7. Tesla’s strategic transformation from carmaker to fleet operator. Zoom out from the Cybertruck-Cybercab swap and the pattern becomes clear: California factory (Fremont): Model S and Model X production → halted → replaced with Optimus humanoid robot production lines. Texas factory (Giga Texas): Cybertruck production → winding down June/July 2027 → replaced with Cybercab production. The direction: Tesla is systematically converting consumer vehicle manufacturing capacity into autonomous vehicle and robot manufacturing capacity. The business model shift: Old Tesla: build cars. Sell them to customers. Earn revenue at the point of sale. The customer owns the car. Tesla moves on to the next sale. New Tesla: build Cybercabs. Keep them. Operate a robotaxi fleet. Earn revenue on every ride continuously. Build Optimus robots. Sell or lease them to businesses. Earn revenue per task continuously. Sell FSD subscriptions. Earn recurring revenue per month continuously. Every strategic move points the same direction: from one-time vehicle sales to continuous recurring revenue. From selling products to operating fleets. From a car company to an autonomy company. The Cybertruck was the last vehicle Tesla designed for a human driver to buy and own. The Cybercab is the first vehicle Tesla designed for no human to drive and for Tesla to own. The transition happens at Giga Texas. In June 2027. When the Cybertruck line goes down and the Cybercab line goes up.

🚨 BREAKING: In a MAJOR mask-off moment, incoming House Oversight Chair Robert Garcia (D) is UNABLE to say which crimes are being committed by Trump allies and Stephen Miller — he's just investigating for a FISHING expedition ‼️ GARCIA: All those committing crimes need to be held accountable BASH: Stephen Miller has to lawyer up? Did he commit a crime? GARCIA: Miller is the architect of this [ICE] policy... BASH: Anything was criminal? GARCIA: That, look, we believe he's been at the center... 🤯🤯🤯 THE DEMS ARE ALREADY OVER-REACHING. They won Tuesday and view it as a mandate to try and lock up their political opponents! This is what's coming in 2028. No crime, no evidence, just fire off investigation after investigation until their enemies are locked up We can't let them win again!

This Muslim woman was forced to marry by her father at age 14 to a man who was 29 years old She says she has to listen to everything he says, do chores, can’t work, can’t get an education, if she speaks out she’s beaten (she says this is how it is in Islam) She got pregnant and had a child If you remove the religion label of this, and relook at this situation, you’d realize this is actually called kidnapping, assault, rape and slavery But because it’s women in Islam it’s expected and encouraged This isn’t some far off in the past thing that happened a long time ago, this is happening to Muslim women right now in 2026 We can’t let this come to America

Elon just told us why Google's guy left the SpaceX board. "At this point, there are simply too many conflicts of interest with Alphabet, so he decided to step down." Read that again. Google is now enough of a SpaceX competitor that its head of global partnerships can't sit in the room anymore. Gemini vs Grok. Google's own space data center plans vs StarMind. TPUs in orbit vs SpaceX compute. And Alphabet still holds about 555M SpaceX shares. At Friday's $134.27 close that's about $74.5B. Too conflicted to sit on the board. Not conflicted enough to sell a single share. So conflicted that they are even buying more. $SPCX

Don has been a great board member. Very much appreciate his contributions. At this point, there are simply too many conflicts of interest with Alphabet, so he decided to step down.

Larry Page has made many accurate predictions and this is one of them
Larry Page reportedly has a number for how much computing will end up in space: five nines. As in 99.999%. @patrick_oshag heard it secondhand: "Someone asked Larry Page how much of compute will be orbital, and he said five-nines." @martin_casado's reason it might happen: "It's just basically regulatory." He thinks there are 500 proposed bills to stop data center building in the US, Texas included. From @InvestLikeBest.

Many people are convinced that fraud occurred in the election but have no evidence. The two most plausible ideas to me are: 1) ballot harvesting and 2) corrupt machines. Now what? We need proof. At least the Save Act would fix one of these. Is there still time to pass it because it surely won't pass after the new Congress is sworn in?
