Elon Musk on Principles & Values

 

 


Calls himself a cultural Christian

Elon Musk, a famous name famously associated with atheism, now calls himself a cultural Christian. He joins other prominent figures--such as scientist Richard Dawkins--who've used that phrase this year to describe themselves.

On Biden budget reconciliation: "This bill should not pass"

Q [to HAGERTY]: You said that Elon Musk allowed for transparency when he posted, "This bill should not pass" [regarding Pres. Biden's budget reconciliation bill]. He posted 75 times over the course of that day attacking the bill, pressuring Republicans to tank it. Donald Trump only weighed in publicly after it was clear Republicans were following Elon Musk's lead and turning on the bill.

Sen. Bill HAGERTY (R-TN): I say, thank God Elon Musk bought Twitter, because that's the only way we'd even know what's in this bill. Otherwise, the conspiracy between the government and Twitter would have continued, and this would have all been covered up. But the fact is that Elon Musk exposing this meant that every one of our offices was inundated with calls from our constituents. The American public wanted to see this change. Trump was speaking on behalf of the American public. We were all struggling to read it, to digest an over-1,500-page bill that we were literally given just hours to comb through.
