Reflecting on Musk’s Comments

It’s remarkable to watch Musk's journey from a Biden voter to a Trump supporter who champions free speech, small government, and transparency.

Many still have their doubts about Musk, but as Tucker Carlson points out, Jesus has taught us, “By their fruit, you will recognize them.” (Matthew 7:16-20)

Since acquiring Twitter, Musk has repeatedly shown himself to be a bearer of good fruit, from funding legal battles for free speech to taking on the woke mob, challenging Australia’s censorship regime, and confronting Maduro’s dictatorship in Venezuela.

As the election approaches, it will be fascinating to see what impact his endorsement and online influence will have on the future of American politics.
