Elon Musk came to the United States from South Africa in 1995, the son of a humble emerald mine owner.
And he is so grateful to this country that allowed him to become a trillionaire.
A trillion dollars is $10 billion bills.
If you stack them up, the pile would be almost 700 miles high, as tall as 123 Mount Everest.
With that kind of money, Elon could buy every NFL team, all of them, and he'd still have $773 billion left, which he could use to buy all 30 Major League Baseball teams, every NBA team, every Wendy's, every Target store, the Beatles' entire music catalog.
in the wealthiest nation on earth, 700,000 people sleep outside every single night.
I mean, that's preposterous, right?
And the solution to that is so simple, really.
If we were to just like retool our system a little bit, because we have all of the wealth, we have all of the potential, we have all of the opportunity to change this system, to ensure that that doesn't happen because it's unbelievably inhumane.
And yet...
We don't do it because this is the way the system is designed.
This is the way capitalism has to continue.
And yet, in spite of the same wealth inequality, if not worse, that we're currently experiencing in comparison to the Gilded Age,
Americans are sleepwalking in the direction of fascism.
And that's what I want to avoid.
The lies and their amplification put my family in danger, as well as everyone in our community, everyone involved in the investigation, from the police, the attorneys, and the court staff. Our son deserves the same rights under the law that everyone is afforded to. He's been raised in a two-parent home with structure, stability, love, and we put God first in everything that we do.

We believe in the Constitution. We believe in the laws of this state. But those laws must apply to all of us, not just some of us.
