Mario Nawfal @MarioNawfal
ELON: FULL BODY REANIMATION MAY BE POSSIBLE WITH NEURALINK
“We think it’s possible to create a neural shunt. 
If you’ve got a Neuralink in your skull connected to your brain's motor cortex, you could put another Neuralink in your spinal cord, past the point where the nerves are broken. 
It would essentially act like a wireless bridge. Neurons are kind of like wires, so if you’ve got a bunch of broken wires, this would be a wireless bridge from your brain to where the neurons are still alive. 
This could allow for full-body reanimation.”

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump - The resignation of Christopher Wray is a great day for America as it will end the Weaponization of what has become known as the United States Department of Injustice. I just don’t know what happened to him. We will now restore the Rule of Law for all Americans. Under the leadership of Christopher Wray, the FBI illegally raided my home, without cause, worked diligently on illegally impeaching and indicting me, and has done everything else to interfere with the success and future of America. They have used their vast powers to threaten and destroy many innocent Americans, some of which will never be able to recover from what has been done to them. Kash Patel is the most qualified Nominee to lead the FBI in the Agency’s History, and is committed to helping ensure that Law, Order, and Justice will be brought back to our Country again, and soon. As everyone knows, I have great respect for the rank-and-file of the FBI, and they have great respect for me. They want to see these changes every bit as much as I do but, more importantly, the American People are demanding a strong, but fair, System of Justice. We want our FBI back, and that will now happen. I look forward to Kash Patel’s confirmation, so that the process of Making the FBI Great Again can begin. Thank you!
