Elon Musk has bashed the Biden administration after they admitted to flying 320,000 unvetted migrants into the US.
Musk took to his platform X early Tuesday and said the president’s administration is ‘importing voters and creating a national security threat’ for secretly allowing illegal immigrants in the country.
‘It is highly probable that the groundwork is being laid for something far worse than 9/11. Just a matter of time,’ Musk said as he reposted a story from DailyMail.com.
The Tesla‘s creators comments comment after a secret Biden program was exposed where the administration admitted to flying 320,000 migrants into the US – but officials refuse to say who was flown and to where.
Lawyers for the administration’s immigration agencies have claimed that revealing the locations of where these undocumented aliens are could create national security ‘vulnerabilities.’

Is it better that Musk says this or not? Clearly, it’s better. This headline will communicate with many millions of viewers who are far less informed than readers of this site.
Is Musk a limited-hangout ensnaring us only to misdirect us at some later date? Could be. But that is the level we need to be paying attention to, not categorical dismissal of Musk or those like him. To simply dismiss everything Musk says or does is not the right way to fight this information war. This same reasoning applies to virtually all public figures, especially those who have risen to prominence quickly (and thus are almost certainly backed by nefarious forces).
We have to accept that there is no master authority that can separate truth from falsehood or always point us in the right direction. All of life is largely a muddle and so is information warfare. We can assess information case by case, person by person, group by group. If a great many of us do this anarchically but in concert, we will succeed is creating a sea of public understanding that even a savage totalitarian elite will have trouble suppressing.
Going forward, this is our best strategy; lean in toward good information and action and people who are better than others at their level with good information and action. Example: Musk is better than Gates or Zuckerberg. He says more good stuff and does more good stuff. Everyone must be viewed with suspicion. No one is worshipped. Trump is better than Biden. Carlson is better than Maddow. X is better than FB. These are our tools—gradations of understanding always subject to change and reconsideration. We have to be pragmatic, probabilistic, broad-minded, able to assess what is better than and not just what is the ideal best. ABN

He is clearly not the champion of free speech which he wishes to portray.
