Elon Musk is currently worth about $425.2 billion.

Which means that for the low price of just $57 billion, Musk could offer everyone in Greenland a million bucks and simply buy it. (And he’d still have about $375 billion left over.)

There’s precedent for these multibillion-dollar, blockbuster purchases: In 2022, Musk bought Twitter for $44 billion. Who knew Greenland was hypothetically worth just $13 billion more than Twitter?

Of course, when he bought Twitter, Musk was “only” worth a paltry $219 billion. (Poor guy.) So, that $44 billion represented a much larger percentage of his wealth than buying Greenland would today.

Theoretically, there’s nothing to prevent Musk from buying the land on his own — and then reselling it to the U.S. government. (In exchange, perhaps, for exclusive rare earth mining rights?) Musk is actually wealthy enough to pull it off without being unduly leveraged. […]

J6ers Ask Trump for Pardons in DC as Election Is Certified https://freerreport.com/j6ers-ask-trump-for-pardons-in-dc-as-election-is-certified/ https://freerreport.com/j6ers-ask-trump-for-pardons-in-dc-as-election-is-certified/#respond Wed, 08 Jan 2025 04:16:18 +0000 https://freerreport.com/j6ers-ask-trump-for-pardons-in-dc-as-election-is-certified/ As Congress cheered the certification of Donald Trump and JD Vance’s election win, Jan. 6 prisoners and allies were joining together to ask the president-elect to give them justice.

At an event on Jan. 6 in Washington, D.C., J6ers who have been or are still unjustly imprisoned (in the case of Jake Lang, for years in solitary confinement without trial) spoke out in person or by video. They were joined by attorneys who take the J6 cases to court and multiple media and business figures. Themes at the event included requests to incoming President Trump for pardons for all J6ers, no exceptions; admiration for the Founders and thus horror at violations of Constitutional rights; and demands for accountability. Joe Biden pardoned or commuted sentences for 1500+ criminals including sexual offenders, murderers, and Chinese spies (not to mention his own son), yet some J6ers have received sentences of decades in prison.

Online influencer George (@BehizyTweets) was one of multiple speakers and panelists who praised all those who have in ways large and small stood up for rule of law amidst Biden-Harris weaponization of lawfare. “I hope posterity looks down on everyone in this room with extreme satisfaction,” he said.

Lawyer and podcast host Viva Frei emphasized how serious the relentless Democrat campaign against all Jan. 6 protestors has been while hundreds of truly violent, pro-terrorist leftist activists went free. The aim was “to persecute and prosecute your political rivals, to discredit them, to turn them into domestic terrorists, to weaponize the justice system against half of America.” MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell agreed: “evil had a back up plan, and that back up plan was Jan. 6,” he insisted.

J6 activist Suzzanne Monk insisted that the community’s aims for pardons are in line with the views of the Founding Fathers, who in their day were vilified by opponents as violent, dangerous traitors for defending their rights. “We continue to need the Founders’ vision of this country, and we need to continue to implement it, because the Founders knew that there was actually one more [ruling] branch, one more group of people that were going to be critical to … the checks and balance, and that is We the People,” she emphasized. Some Jan. 6 were charged with “violence” in defending themselves from Capitol police brutality, which killed Ashli Babbitt and Rosanne Boyland. […]
