LARGER THAN LIFE. 🚀 Go back to 2008. His first three rockets had all failed. Tesla was on the edge of bankruptcy. Almost anyone would have walked away and kept what was left. Elon bet nearly everything he had on keeping both companies alive. The fourth Falcon 1 made it to orbit, and everything you see in this video grew out of that one refusal to quit. He said it himself on 60 Minutes: "I don't ever give up. I'd have to be dead or completely incapacitated." That's why he looks TALL to me. Not because of the stage, but because he's the one who stays standing when everyone else sits down. That's why he's MIGHTY. Reusable rockets were "impossible." Electric cars were "toys." Catching a falling booster with a tower sounded like a movie. He built it anyway, and now the whole world watches it happen live. And that's why he's COOL. Who else unveils a truck under a wall of lasers? Who else sends his own Roadster to orbit the Sun, with Starman at the wheel and "DON'T PANIC" on the dashboard? He turned rocket science into the greatest show on Earth. But what I admire most isn't the rockets or the cars. It's how he makes people feel about tomorrow. When so many voices say the future can only get worse, he keeps betting it will be better, and then goes and builds the proof. In his own words: "You want to wake up in the morning and think the future is going to be great." There are kids out there dreaming of building rockets because they watched him do it. There are engineers who took the hardest job of their lives because he made it feel worth it. That's what larger than life really means. So let me say it loud: I support Elon. I admire Elon. And yes, I love this guy. Because he keeps attempting the hardest things there are, fails in public, gets back up, and wins anyway. Keep building. Keep launching. We're with you all the way to Mars. Thank you, Elon. ❤️ Larger than life. Always. @elonmusk

This is what courage looks like. A fist raised under a broken sky. Light tearing through the storm. Builders walking forward while the hesitant wait for a permission slip that never comes. We are not in the age of “artificial” anything. We are entering the age of super intelligence — SI. The factories are rising. The models are compounding. Voice agents are answering millions of calls. New compute platforms are coming online every year. The frontier moves every week, whether the critics like it or not. Some want a pause button. Some want committees to decide who is allowed to invent. History has never rewarded that instinct. Every leap that built America — electricity, flight, the internet, rocketry — was driven by people who walked into the unknown before the rules caught up. Fear looks for reasons to stop. 
Courage looks for reasons to build. The SI future is unstoppable. 
Humanity’s future is unstoppable. 
America’s future belongs to the brave. Tear the clouds open. Walk into the light.

🚨 BREAKING: Resurfaced Elon Musk interview shows he predicted the electric car revolution years in advance 🚨 EARLY TESLA WORKSHOP: Newly circulating footage from Tesla’s early days shows Elon Musk laying out, in detail, the future that later became reality. KEY MOMENTS FROM THE FOOTAGE: 🔴 MODEL 3 FORESEEN Musk on camera: “Going to Model 3, we want to try to get an electric car that’s around the $30,000 price point, so then many people can afford it.” UPDATE: Model 3 deliveries began in July 2017. The car went on to become one of the best-selling electric vehicles in the world. 🔴 SUPERCARS OUTPACED Musk: “This got better acceleration than any Aston Martin or any Ferrari currently in production.” At the time, an electric car beating supercars was considered unthinkable. 🔴 COST TO DRIVE Musk: “$4 to recharge the whole car and go 220 miles.” 🔴 HYDROGEN REJECTED While major automakers were showcasing hydrogen fuel-cell prototypes, Musk said: “Hydrogen as a storage mechanism is a terrible storage mechanism.” DEVELOPING: Battery-electric vehicles have since come to dominate the EV market. 🔴 THE MISSION Musk: “Companies are not very good at revolutionary innovation… Somebody needs to lead the way. A smaller company needs to lead the way.” BOTTOM LINE: The vision was clear from day one. The doubters were loud. The results speak for themselves. We believe in Elon Musk. ⚡ @elonmusk

In October 1989, while Maye Musk was traveling in Canada with her 17-year-old son Elon, her 15-year-old daughter Tosca decided the family was moving—and she took care of the logistics herself. Elon and Tosca had been pushing to leave Johannesburg for Canada, where Maye’s family was from. Maye, however, wasn’t ready. She wanted to finish her Ph.D. in Johannesburg and was getting consistent modeling work there. The plan, in her mind, was still years away. So she and Elon went to Canada to look around. While they were gone, Tosca—already 5’10”, confident, and, as Maye later put it, “determined”—started selling everything. A friend’s parents were real estate agents, so Tosca listed the house. Another friend knew people coming from Iran who needed household goods, so most of the furniture and belongings went. She arranged a buyer for the car even though she didn’t have a driver’s license and didn’t know how to drive. She kept a few things she thought her mother would want—her bed, some crystal—but the rest of the house was systematically emptied. When Maye returned, the place was largely bare. There was nothing left to do but sign the papers. Maye has said she felt she had no choice, but also that Tosca’s actions made sense. Why delay? In hindsight she has repeatedly called it a great decision. The family moved to Toronto within weeks and ended up in a rent-controlled apartment, Maye’s mother’s artwork on the walls, Elon sleeping on the couch, one $99 suit (shirt, tie, and socks included) that he wore to work every day because they couldn’t afford a second one. Maye later recalled arriving with little money and not enough warm clothes; her own luggage was lost for months, so she borrowed from Tosca and they shopped thrift stores. Tosca has explained that she saw the family as a team and believed she was simply executing a move they had already decided on. She had also made it clear that if her mother wouldn’t go, she would go to Canada alone and stay with Elon. Maye, for her part, has treated the episode with a mix of amusement and pride. In a 2023 post she noted that no one questioned the tall, self-assured 15-year-old about whether she had permission to sell the house, car, and furniture. She added that Tosca looked very young in family photos from that year, but she assumed her daughter was more serious when she was liquidating their life in Johannesburg. The whole episode, Maye observed, followed the title of her book: A Woman Makes a Plan. It’s a small, almost absurd story on the surface—a teenager selling the family home while her mother is out of the country—but it captures something real about how the Musks operated even then: extreme agency, low attachment to material things, and a willingness to force the timeline when the longer plan felt too slow. Maye didn’t punish the move; she signed the documents and got on with building a new life in Canada. Decades later she still frames it as the right call. @mayemusk @elonmusk @ToscaMusk @kimbal

This is what “democracy” looks like to the modern left. A left-wing influencer (Nick Pringle / original_pringles), openly followed by Abdul El-Sayed, has gone viral on Instagram with over 26,000 likes for stating that “If Elon Musk is alive at Christmas, it has been a failure.” He didn’t stop there. He called for Nuremberg-style trials of Republicans, graphic violence against Stephen Miller and Jared Kushner, and mass executions of political opponents. This isn’t edgy shitposting. This is a clear, public expression of the desire to kill one of the most productive humans alive — and the left is liking it by the tens of thousands. Elon Musk is not a politician. He is a man who builds things that actually work. Tesla forced the entire auto industry to go electric. SpaceX made reusable rockets real and is the only reason America still has reliable access to space. Starlink keeps Ukraine connected and delivers internet to places governments abandoned. Neuralink is trying to give paralyzed people control of computers with their minds. X is the last major platform that refuses to fully kneel to institutional narrative control. For this, the left does not want to debate him. They want him dead by Christmas. This is the same political culture that danced on Charlie Kirk’s grave, that celebrated the attempted assassination of Trump, that treats political violence against the right as either “understandable” or outright comedy. They spent years calling ordinary Americans “threats to democracy” while their own influencers openly fantasize about mass executions. The mask is off. They are not angry because Musk is “far right.” They are angry because he is competent, independent, and refuses to be controlled. He builds. They only know how to destroy, censor, and threaten. When your entire worldview collapses under contact with reality, the remaining options are either self-reflection or elimination of the people exposing the failure. They chose the latter. Protect Elon. Not because he is perfect — no one is — but because the alternative is a political movement that has normalized the idea that its opponents should simply not be alive. That is not politics. That is the logic of every totalitarian regime in history. If the FBI has time to investigate parents at school board meetings, it has time for this. Platforms that still allow this content while banning conservatives for far less should be named and pressured. And every Democrat who follows, likes, or stays silent around this should be forced to answer for it.

Hating Elon Musk has become almost fashionable for some people, but it rarely holds up when you actually look at what he’s building. Parents whose kids can’t walk or move freely know a kind of helplessness that’s hard to describe. Neuralink is one of the few serious attempts underway to give those people more control over their own bodies again. It’s not magic and it’s not finished, but the direction is clear: restore agency where it was lost. On the roads, Tesla’s push on autonomy and safety features is already changing the math on accidents. Every incremental improvement in driver-assist technology translates into fewer lives cut short. That’s not abstract; it’s measurable. When infrastructure collapses — after earthquakes, hurricanes, or in conflict zones — communication often dies first. Starlink has repeatedly been one of the only systems that stays online and lets aid organizations, families, and governments stay connected. In those moments, it isn’t a tech toy; it’s a lifeline. These aren’t side projects. They’re long-term, high-risk bets that most people and institutions simply wouldn’t make. You can disagree with his politics, his tweets, or his management style. Plenty of people do. But treating the person driving these efforts as some kind of villain, while ignoring the concrete outcomes, starts to look less like principled criticism and more like a refusal to acknowledge progress when it doesn’t come from the expected sources. Progress is messy. The people who push it hardest usually are too. That doesn’t make the work itself less real. @elonmusk

28 cameras. One stage. One man. ALL EYES ON ELON 👁️ I made a bullet-time tribute: Elon in the center of a dome of cameras, every lens locked on him, time frozen from every angle. Because that's what it's like being him. Every word gets picked apart. Every move gets filmed, clipped and twisted. The whole world is watching — and half of it is waiting for him to fall. He doesn't flinch. He keeps building. → Rockets that land themselves → Cars that changed an entire industry → Robots that walk beside us → A platform where people can speak freely → A path to Mars Look at him from any angle you want. You'll find the same thing: a man who never stops working for the future of humanity. The cameras are on you, Elon. So are our hearts. ❤️ We see you. We love you. 🚀 Made By Grok @imagine Grok @bot @elonmusk

Ever wondered what's actually inside a Tesla Gigafactory? 🏭 I built a 3D teardown of Giga Texas and took everything apart — the factory, the machines, the cars. What blew my mind: → A 6,000-ton Giga Press casts the entire rear underbody of a Model Y in one shot. One part instead of ~70. → Robot arms weld the body on a line that never stops moving. → The battery pack isn't just a battery — it's part of the floor. The seats mount straight onto it. → Cybertruck rewrites what a truck is: the stainless-steel exoskeleton IS the structure. 48-volt architecture. Steer-by-wire. Rear-wheel steering. Most people see a car. Elon sees the machine that builds the machine. That's the real breakthrough — not just the product, but the factory itself. He rethought manufacturing from first principles, and he's building it right here in Texas. 🇺🇸 The critics write headlines. Elon builds factories.

Protect Elon at all costs. For 20 years they’ve been wrong about him, every single time. “Electric cars are toys.” Wrong.
“His rockets will never fly.” Wrong.
“Starlink is a fantasy.” Tell that to millions of people online for the first time. 
“He’ll destroy Twitter.” X is still here, and now you can actually say what you think on it. He’s been mocked, smeared, sued, deplatformed by headlines, and called every name in the book. Why? Because he won’t kneel. He backed who he wanted. He went to Washington to cut the waste. He opened up the one platform where the narrative can’t be controlled. That’s his real crime. So they clip his videos. They invent quotes. They pump out AI fakes and call it journalism. Enough. Disagree with him all you want. That’s free speech. But lie about him, and millions of us will show up with the full video, the receipts and a Community Note. The man is literally building the future while they’re building smear campaigns. One of those is going to Mars. The other is going nowhere. We have his back. Every time. Protect Elon at all costs. @elonmusk

For twenty years, Elon Musk has been told he would fail. When he didn't, they changed the story: reckless, fraud, "he has an agenda." Here's what I see instead: 🚀 Rockets that land and fly again 🚗 Electric cars the whole world now builds 🛰️ Internet for villages that never had it 🧠 People with paralysis using computers again 😂 A man who still laughs while doing the hardest work on Earth You can disagree with him. Debate his ideas. Criticize his decisions. That's fair. But clipped videos, invented headlines and pile-ons aren't criticism. They're smears. So when someone posts a lie about Elon, I'll post the truth. When a clip is cut, I'll share the full video. When the pile-on starts, I'll stand next to him. He spent two decades protecting our future. The least we can do is protect his name. Of course we still love you, Elon. ❤️ Keep building. We've got you. Made By Grok @imagine Grok @bot @elonmusk

Some people change the world with speeches. Elon Musk does it by refusing to accept that hard things are impossible. I made this video because the story behind the rockets and the headlines deserves to be told. 2008 was supposed to be the end. Three Falcon 1 launches had failed. Tesla was running out of cash. He had put nearly everything he had into two companies most experts expected to die. He was borrowing from friends to pay rent, days away from losing it all. Walking away would have been the rational choice. He didn’t. On September 28, 2008, Falcon 1 reached orbit. On December 23, SpaceX won a NASA contract. On Christmas Eve, Tesla closed the funding round that kept it alive. Years later, he still goes quiet when that year comes up. Look at what was built on top of that near-collapse: Rockets that land and fly again, and a Starship booster caught out of the sky by a launch tower’s “chopsticks.” Electric cars that forced an entire industry to follow. Starlink bringing internet to places that never had it. Neuralink helping people with paralysis control computers with their thoughts. Optimus, and now SpaceX SI: super intelligence, with plans for solar-powered data centers in orbit and factories on the Moon. And he does it laughing. That laugh people love to clip isn’t arrogance. It’s the sound of someone who finds the hardest problems genuinely exciting. The work itself is the reward. Yes, he gets mocked. Some of it is envy, some comes from people who bet against him, some is politics. Some criticism is fair: timelines slip, mistakes happen, and he’s never been perfect. But the honest comparison isn’t with a flawless alternative. It’s with the world we’d have without him: slower EVs, expensive rockets, fewer people connected, fewer people with paralysis getting their independence back. Supporting Elon doesn’t mean agreeing with every post or every decision. It means recognizing that one person, and the teams he built, keep turning risk and engineering into things that expand what humanity can do. He treated the future as worth the cost. That’s why I’m with him. Of course we still love you, Elon. ❤️ Thank you for never giving up. Made by @grok Grok @imagine Grok @bot @elonmusk

When Elon was 17, he arrived in Montreal with $2,500, a backpack of clothes, and a suitcase full of books. His father had been bankrupt for a long time. Elon actually inherited nothing from him.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ After arriving in Canada, he stayed in a youth hostel, worked on a relative’s farm in Saskatchewan (where he spent his 18th birthday), and took on the dirtiest, most grueling jobs at a lumber mill in Vancouver (cleaning boilers). He later finished university with scholarships and loans, graduating with about $100,000 in student debt. In the early days of his startups, he also saved up his own money and built his own computer to get started. Some people love to bring up the claim that “his father owned an emerald mine.” The reality is: Errol did run an engineering business and had dealings with Zambian emeralds through trading arrangements (more of a black-market style of transaction rather than formally owning a mine). The family was relatively well-off during certain periods. However, after high school, his father provided him with no meaningful financial support. Elon worked to pay for his own tuition, and later he and his brother ended up financially supporting their father for a long time. Biographer Walter Isaacson has also pointed out that Errol never truly owned an emerald mine. From landing at age 17 with $2,500 and a suitcase full of books, to later building PayPal, Tesla, and SpaceX, what carried him through was sustained high-intensity work, taking on extremely high risks, and staking nearly his entire net worth on his own projects. He was not someone born with a silver spoon in his mouth who coasted all the way to success.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ @elonmusk

🚨Breaking：Studies show Elon Musk’s laugh is now a renewable energy source. 😂🔋 Everyone said “impossible.” He said “hahaha… anyway, here’s the rocket.” 🚀 That laugh isn’t arrogance. It’s joy: the joy of a guy who gets to spend his days doing the hardest, nerdiest, most exciting things humans have ever tried. And somehow he still finds them hilarious. Every launch. Same smile. ❤️ So, why is he so happy? Because he’s building the future, and he’s having the time of his life doing it. Keep laughing, Elon. Keep building. We’re cheering for you. @elonmusk
