Today I had a thought...It's just a thought so don't beat me up...LOL 

It seems like every regime has it's source of information that is setup by it's administration. Could Musk be so interested in being a part of Mr. T's administration his way of getting his foot in the door to be the regulated means of news that we will receive?  Filtered and produced by the government. You know how Mr. T hates the media.  

I'm sorry ... but my mind is in so much conflict here. My idea of the traditional Mr T does not sport ginger hair!

The environmental impact of political campaigns….

Also I heard that this election cycle was of course the most expensive yet. To the tune of 16 billion.

Yes, and No.

 

Daniel 11:3 "a mighty king", Alexander The Great.

Daniel 11:5 the first "king of the south", Ptolemy I; the first "king of the north", Seleucus I Nicator.

Daniel 11:6 Antiochus II (KOTN); Ptolemy II (KOTS), his "daughter", Berenice.

Daniel 11:7-9 Seleucus II (N); Ptolemy III (S)

Daniel 11:10-12 Antiochus III (N); Ptolemy IV (S)

Daniel 11:13-19 Antiochus III (N), the "daughter of women", Cleopatra; Ptolemy V (S).

And so on...

Daniel 11:20 "an exactor", Augustus

Daniel 11:21 "a despised one", Tiberius

 

So, before "the time of the end" the kings are mostly identified as individuals, the rulers of the nation at the time, since the monarch dictated the course of actions.

"At the time appointed" (Da 11:29), or during "the time of the end", the FDS identifies the KOTS and the KOTN as nations or coalitions. But in the end, every coalition does not have a hive mind, but a master mind, a head, a leader.

 

Anyway, no matter who the "lead actors" are, they all will play Jehovah's 'script' and the act will soon come to the proper end.

 

 

Still not any one person though, it's a march of monarchs/dictators and more recently Presidents/Prime Ministers that make up the entity of either the King of the South or North ... if some of those rulers were different than listed, in hindsight, the nature of the beast is still the same.

 

To have rulers they have to be individuals... but they didn't have to be THAT SPECIFIC individual in order to create the entity. The only exceptions are where specific prophecies are fulfilled.

 

For instance: if Nero was assassinated or died of natural causes before he became emperor, then another would have been in his place, which doesn't change who or what power became the then KoS or KoN. Unless Jehovah prophesied like Cyrus and Alexander the Great to name a couple.

 

Today the KoS is not just one President, it's a dual world power with all her allies, not one individual.  Kamala or Donald would have both slipped into that position the same, not changing who or what the KofS is or where they are headed.

If you research it.....you’ll find it’s just the opposite. You can’t trust most of the media. This was in a recent Wt. Mag. They will lie with a smile on their face. 

 

The Most of the large Media companies are run by Trump’s enemies.  You can easily tell by listening to them. For example Disney (which owns ABC), Comcast (NBC), and Paramount Global (CBS). They all despise Trump....because he points out repeatedly what we already know,.....you cannot trust the Media.

 

Many of these corporation promote progressive agendas in their news coverage and entertainment content............ LBGQT and other immorality they want to normalize. 

Many of these very wealthy and powerful corporations are pushing all that garbage.....Trump cannot control them. There's this annoying little thing called the first amendment....freedom of speech and press.

 

Nevertheless, before Musk bought Twitter....the White House officials were pressuring their sympathetic followers working at twitter to take down certain post that could have a negative affect on their campaign. In effect, interfering in an election by suppressing freedom of speech. The loophole was that they are a private corporation and have the right to control it how they see fit, albeit considered unethical. 

 

 

I guess I'm not being understood.  I'm not looking back at the original reason as to why Musk bought twitter or what his intentions were in the beginning.  I am just wondering what advantages he would see for himself in a Trump administration and how his platform would play a role. It was just a thought that maybe should've been kept.

Elon Musk is interested in  working with Trump.  Now, why would a billionaire tech genius want a government job?

 

According to Musk ....... he’d like the government run more smoothly and save money. If Musk had a government role, it might help him get his pet space projects, like missions to Mars, moving faster. If Musk were involved in making rules and policies, he could push for things that help his businesses, like fewer regulations for building electric cars or launching rockets.

 

It makes sense for people with Business savvy to run the biggest economy in the world and in history. Lifetime politicians are more focused on  staying in power than fixing problems. 

 

Can you Imagine living under a Government that is unified and doesn’t flip values every few years? 

 

 

 

 

 

That said, Musk probably wouldn’t take an official government job because it might mess with the focus on his businesses. Instead, he might just act as an advisor.......giving advice but staying out of the paperwork and politics. IMO.

Thankfully I don't have enough free time to get to that point. I'm in as much as I'm gonna get, and I play with some grid bots here and there to feel like I still have some active involvement in trading. 

How do guys trading in stock market, cryptocurrencies and currencies sleep at night? Most worldly people I know doing these are on HBP medications! A South African worldly soccer pickup game friend once came to the soccer field and started kicking legs instead of the ball. I pulled him out and aside to scold. He then confessed to me: “bro., I just lost $4 million dollars for my clients.” Guess what my joking reply was: “Wow! Get back in the field. You have my permission to start kneecapping everybody. Your clients are going to kill you.”

It has always been like this. 

The government always filter most news before it gets to the public. That's the norm. The do that "for the safety of the people", they say.

Exactly. I have a bookmark of screenshots of some of the funniest misinformations published by reputable and popular international news sources, also known as "facts". 

 

I don't want to offend anyone here so I won't even think of posting some here. So anytime someone post a link from one of those news sources I take them with a grain of salt.

 

The side effects of me knowing these stuff is that, now I don't know what to believe anymore.

How beautifully did this illustrate the business-hostile takeover of the US government under the guise of supporting a populist candidate? What is going on is not exactly what the people at the grassroots level imagined they were getting. Musk trying to run the US government like a business by running and making it lean on bureaucracy makes business sense, but for the strugglers living near the poverty level: "No More Mr. Nice Guy" from Uncle Sam. I am just wondering if things like this may lead very soon to improvement in our understanding of "666" (Rev. 13:16-18).

It went from the a token that literally wasn't listed on any market cap site to now being the 14th token on the site under Doge. Shiba Inu is the dog on the Doge Coin. But it was just sorta like a scam no utility coin like NFTs, like a meme crypto, the GameStop. Doge made it popular. Elon Musk made Doge popular so by extension a lot of people made money.

 

The sad thing is Doge was always a joke coin even when I got into crypto. People just held it to be cool. Well, it has no utility meaning it's not really useful. Well Elon Musk made it useful by accepting it as payment. Again, a lot of people made money and any "dog coin" did also. Shiba Inu, Kishu Inu, etc etc. it got real stupid and scammy. So the people that had it before 2017 made a lot of money. When Doge was popular and Elon Musk was being Elon Musk people lost a lot of money buying the top. Which you never do. You don't buy when the news says buy. You buy when the news says don't buy and it's failing.

 

Edit

The real dog.

I am getting some education I never had when I had a brief spell with Bitcoin 5-7 years ago. I am enjoying your run in and around that circle... I am glad to see you pull yourself aside and regain proper control on the spiritual level.

Harris and the DNC got over a billion dollars from donors and now they are 20 million in debt. Talk about a waste of money.  Trump got a third of that and has no debt left over.....that should tell you something.

Hmm, this isn't passing the smell test for me. This is just one more of the many ways Trump fools people. He has numerous PACs that were working toward his reelection that he started 9 years ago. He would split "his" money up in numerous ways - including for his "defense" fund that also went to the campaign. I am certain he raised more over the last 9 years through all of those PACs and spent way more than Kamala did in 16 weeks. BUt ... anyway

Edit: per the above - she did out raise him 1.7 billion to 1.1, but that is just 2024. I can't find a good source for dollar figures for him over the last 9 years since he has been running for President. Amazing to think how much $$$ goes to political candidates. Man we need the Kingdom - where $$$ can't be used to by the government.

Actualy, that's another point. Some of Trump's donors were just spending their own to get him elected. Much of that wont get reported until later - if at all.

 

On the other hand, if I were Musk and had the opportunity to up my net worth by 10% in just ONE DAY from a small 260 billion to 290 billion by only spending a few million - I would have done that too!
