US businessman, Paypal Mafia underboss, big tech kingpin, WEF YGL billionaire
|
Elon Reeve Musk is a billionaire US businessman. Musk is mostly known for his two biggest companies, Tesla and SpaceX. He accumulated most of his wealth through government subsidies.[1][2] Musk is a member of a very influential group of friends of the Stanford University or University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign named The Paypal Mafia (as he was involved in the early start of Paypal). He was selected as a Young Global Leader of the World Economic Forum in 2008.[3]
In October 2022, Elon Musk purchased Twitter for $44 billion,[4] at a time when Twitter was exposed as a deep state propaganda tool for having carried out heavy COVID-19 censorship and promoting COVID-19 jabs. The other commercially-controlled media made much of his released of the so-called "Twitter files".

Background
Elon Musk’s Family Tree Explained, 12 August 2018, CNBC |
Musk was born and grew up in Pretoria, South Africa. His grandfather was Joshua Haldeman, who in the 1930s led the Canadian branch of the Technocracy movement.[5]
According to Wikipedia, Esquire[6] reported to have that in 2012 Musk being "aware that it would be easier to enter the United States from Canada, Musk applied for a Canadian passport through his Canadian-born mother. While awaiting the documentation, he attended the University of Pretoria for five months; this allowed him to avoid mandatory service in the South African military. Musk arrived in Canada in June 1989."
Moving to Canada at age 17, Musk acquired Canadian citizenship. At 19 years old, he matriculated at Queen's University and transferred to the University of Pennsylvania, where he received bachelor's degrees in economics and physics before moving to California in 1995 and enrolling at Stanford University.[7]
In the 2020s, Musk announced that he had a form of Autism.[8]
Big Tech
PayPal Mafia
Interesting is his connection to venture capitalist and spooky billionaire Peter Thiel, as a member of the group of entrepreneurs named The Paypal Mafia (of whom some appear as WEF members) in corporate media, who effectively started and massively influenced the jump to market leadership of many US big tech companies.
“Despite having perhaps the greatest entrepreneurial streak of all the PayPal Mafia, Musk was purged from PayPal like some kind of toxin. Soon after the merger, Thiel resigned.
Musk became CEO of the combined company and decided it was time for a technological overhaul. Specifically, he wanted to toss out Unix and put everything on a Microsoft (MSFT) platform.
That may sound innocent enough to laypeople but not to Unix zealots like Levchin and his team. A holy war ensued. Musk lost. The board fired him and brought back Thiel while Musk was on a flight to Australia for his first vacation in years. “That’s the problem with vacations,” Musk deadpans.
Musk still contends he didn’t deserve his fate, that his biggest flaw was being cut from different cloth. “Peter, Max, and I are not directly aligned philosophically,” he says. “Peter’s philosophy is pretty odd. It’s not normal. He’s a contrarian from an investing standpoint and thinks a lot about the singularity. I’m much less excited about that. I’m pro-human.””
Fortune (2007) [9]
Tesla
“In the distant future, people may outlaw driving cars because it's too dangerous. You can't have a person driving a two-ton death machine”
Elon Musk (2015) [10]
"Tesla has been the subject of many lawsuits, increasing government scrutiny, and public controversies arising from statements and acts of CEO Elon Musk and from allegations of creative accounting, whistleblower retaliation, worker rights violations, and unresolved and dangerous technical problems with their products".[11] Fortune called Musk out for working the books, basically accusing Musk of Fraud with Tesla.[12] In 2014, Tesla had secured $295 million in Zero Emission Vehicle funding credits for battery-swapping technologies that was never made available to customers.[13]
Mark Spiegel: Elon Musk is a pathological liar, 22 July 2019, IG UK |
In 2018, Musk was sued personally for a tweet by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission claiming funding had been secured for potentially taking Tesla private. The SEC called his statement false, and – on behalf of Tesla shareholders – tried to remove Musk as CEO. Two days later, Musk strangely settled with the SEC, without admitting or denying the SEC's allegations, but received a $20 million fine, with the same amount fined to Tesla, and a ban forcing him to step down for three years as Tesla chairman, but not as CEO, all in all a weird 3 days.[14]
CIA & Space X
Space X was founded with the help of Mike Griffin, who worked for CIA's venture capital arm and was later appointed as NASA administrator by George W. Bush.[15][16] During this time, Griffin met entrepreneur Elon Musk and accompanied him on a trip to Russia trying to buy intercontinental ballistic missiles. This trip of the two is credited as directly leading to the formation of SpaceX, according to an article by The New York Times.[17]
In 2005, When griffin was appointed NASA Administrator, twenty aerospace companies applied[18] to a Commercial Orbital Transportation Services program. Only SpaceX (still never having flown and launching a rocket) was given the contract worth $396 million.
Musk was broke in 2008; his Russian-inspired Falcon 1 rocket was 0-3 in launches, having failed again that August. And Tesla, which hit a speed bump with its early model Roadster, "was haemorrhaging money". The $180 million Musk made from selling PayPal to eBay in 2002 was essentially gone, having invested it all on SpaceX and Tesla, while getting divorced in the meantime. In 2008, with SpaceX reportedly filing for bankruptcy, Griffin gave SpaceX a contract for up to $3 billion[19] to work in cooperation with his own enterprises. Elon Musk called Griffin (and his CIA money) directly responsible for saving SpaceX.[20]
Neuralink: Elon Musk's entire brain chip presentation in 14 minutes (supercut) |
Transhumanism
“Under any rate of advancement in AI we will be left behind by a lot. The benign situation with ultra-intelligent AI is that we would be so far below in intelligence we’d be like a pet, or a house cat. I don’t love the idea of being a house cat. The solution that seems maybe the best one is to have an AI layer. A third digital layer that could work symbiotically [with your brain].”
Elon Musk (2016) [21]
Musk backs the idea of a “neural lace” – a new electronic layer of the brain that would allow us to instantly access online information and greatly improve cognitive powers by tapping into artificial intelligence.
Musk is also co-founder of Neuralink, OpenAI, and Zip2, companies aimed at improving integration with humans and artificial intelligence and transhumanism. Zip2 merged with Compaq 1 year after founding.
“Next I’m buying Coca-Cola to put the cocaine back in”
Elon Musk, Twitter (2022) [22]
Elon Musk has a tendency for controversial statements, often backtracking them, and acquired Twitter in 2022 citing to bring “free speech” back.[24] In October 2022, the billionaire took over the social media company, ending months of back and forth over the $44bn deal, dissolving Twitter's board of directors[25] and becoming its chief executive and sole director.[26]
Musk called the FAA "fundamentally broken" after it forced SpaceX to delay a ICBM launch. Later, The Verge reported that SpaceX had already ignored at least two safety warnings from the agency. After artist Kanye West elaborated on some of his more "radical" positions in 2020 that included Planned Parenthood an organization run by white supremacists - Musk said "um actually, I think we have more differences than I thought" and retracted his support for Kanye West in the US 2020 Election.
Censorship
Tracking
The ElonJet Twitter account was started in June 2020 by Florida student Jack Sweeney, a fan of Musk. The account tracked the private jet of Musk with publicly known data. Musk has had issues with the account for a long time, and offered Jack Sweeney $5,000 to delete the account in 2021. Sweeney countered asking for $50,000, saying he would use the money for college and possibly to buy a Tesla Model 3. Their last exchange was in January 2022, where Musk refused payment. After Musk bought Twitter, Musk shadowbanned Sweeney's account of ElonJet and later suspended it. Sweeney's personal Twitter account was also blocked, along with all of his other accounts that tracked private flights of public figures and Russian oligarchs, along with his post explaining this on Mastodon. Musk responded with legal action against Sweeney and banned journalists form CNN, the Washington Post and others reporting the situation.[27]
Covid-19

First he was against,[28] then he says that he is vaccinated for Covid-19.[29] He encourages people to get vaccinated.[30]
“There is considerable conflation of diagnosis & contraction of “corona”. Actual virality is much lower than it would seem. I think this will turn out to be comparable to other forms of influenza. World War Z it is not”
Elon Musk, Twitter (2020) [31]
“Extremely big difference between died because of or died with. Also, did the person actually have C19 or did they just have C19 symptoms? It’s almost impossible to die without feeling weakness, shortness of breath or other C19 symptoms, unless you were crushed by a falling piano.”
Elon Musk, Twitter (2020) [31]
Wealth
Elon Musk's wealth increased by tens of billions of dollars during the COVID lockdown.[32]
With an estimated net worth of around $210 billion as of October 2022, Musk is the wealthiest person in the world according to both the Bloomberg Billionaires Index and Forbes's real-time billionaires list.[33]
Minus $86 billion
On 11 November 2022, Coin Telegraph reported:
Elon Musk had a net worth of more than $300 billion in October 2021 before the acquisition of Twitter, and around the same time, the price of Tesla stock reached an all-time high of $407.36 in November 2021. In roughly a year, the Bloomberg Billionaires Index showed that the Tesla CEO lost more than $86 billion, dropping his reported net worth to $184 billion at the time of publication.[34]
Ukraine
Putin
Musk challenged President Putin to a fist fight over Russia’s war in Ukraine on Twitter in 2022, tagging the President his account in Cyrillic letters. Dmitry Rogozin, head of the Russian space agency Roscosmos, replied, calling Musk too “weak”. Musk later deleted the tweet.[35]
“If Putin could so easily humiliate the West, then he would accept the challenge [to fight me]. But he will not.”
Elon Musk, Twitter (2022) [36]
Starlink
Iran
Musk, in 2022, was in talks with the Biden administration to deploy Starlink's network to Iran, possibly trying to support more protests causing civil unrest there. CNN quoted a senior official calling Musk a "loose cannon we can never predict".[37]
Ukraine
Following the 2022 Russian Invasion of Ukraine, Musk, in March, tweeted that he was deploying Starlink, his company SpaceX’s satellite internet venture, to help keep Ukraine online. Starlink promises high-speed internet to remote locations where access is anywhere from unreliable to entirely unavailable. Starlink's receivers have been set up on hospitals, energy plants and companies, and more.[38] Musk was ostracized by The Washington Post as falsely claiming he, as a gesture, paid for Starlink deployment himself. The Biden Administration actually paid for the deployment. The United States Agency for International Development or USAID omitted this after earlier publication from their report.[39][40] Before the Ukrainian-Russian War Musk said in a 2015 book that his family feared the Russians would kill him.[41]
Ghislaine Maxwell Secret Conversation
Jailed spook (and liaison of Jeffrey Epstein) Ghislaine Maxwell had a conversation with Elon Musk during the 2014 Vanity Fair Oscar Party in California.
According to the staff watching the conversation, Maxwell asked Musk if there was a way to wipe info completely of the internet.[43] Maxwell also was reported to double down on this statement and actively "requested" Musk to destroy the internet. Musk changed the conversation to discussing "aliens", and tried to sell his theory that life could be simulation.[44] Musk responded in 2020 (before a staffer leaked the conversation) that he didn't knew Maxwell and Maxwell "photobombed" the picture, meaning she just quickly grabbed him by the arm as if the conversation never happened and Maxwell was not known to Silicon Valley by then, something not acknowledged by the citations of old Reddit CEO Ellen Pao.[45]
Aliens
“Seems like an opportune moment to bring up the Fermi Paradox, aka 'Where are the aliens?' Really odd that we see no sign of them. Btw, please don't mention the pyramids. Stacking stone blocks is not evidence of an advanced civilization. The rumor that I'm building a spaceship to get back to my home planet Mars is totally untrue. The ancient Egyptians were amazing, but if aliens built the pyramids, they would've left behind a computer or something”
Elon Musk, Twitter (2015) [46]

Norman Fenton | “Note that we have no issue with the contents of either of these posts, nor do we know anything objectionable about the posters themselves. The only point we wish to make is that neither has been censored on X for posting on topics we are currently censored for. But there is another perhaps more uncomfortable possible conclusion we might arrive at. That dissent from particular individuals or groups is positively allowed or even approved on X, whilst that from others, such as us, is not. Hence it not the message but the source of the message, or the timing of the message, that is being censored. Hence who gets to tell you the 'vaccines are bad' might matter to Elon Musk and X, much more than the actual message imparted. In this way X appears to be no different from MSM: politics, influence and money may hold sway to varying extents. And this determines what messages people see, when and by whom.” | Norman Fenton Martin Neil | 22 April 2024 |
Bill Gates | “He actually could make it worse. That’s not his track record. His track record with Tesla and Space X is pretty mind-blowing at putting together a great team of engineers and taking people who work in those fields in a less bold way and really showing them up. I kind of doubt that’ll happen this time but we should have an open mind and never underestimate Elon. What’s his goal? Where he talks about the openness, how does he feel about something that says ‘vaccines kill people’ or ‘Bill Gates is tracking people’ – is that one of the things he thinks should be spread?” | Bill Gates | 2022 |

O, a billionaire guy almost goes broke several times, calls his CIA Big Tech front buddy he used to buy ICBMs in Russia with, gets handed big government contract after government contract against government recommendations, and promises to buy and take over Big Tech with his deep state friends. His deep state friends own so hugely important tech companies and become boss of bosses in non-democratic societies such as the WEF and Bilderberg. And then, he buys Twitter.... what if.... what if this was the CIA's plan all along?
