A billionaire immigrant is showing American tech elites how real innovation gets done. Abel Avellan, founder of AST SpaceMobile, is beating Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos in the race to connect your phone to satellites. His Florida-based company lets regular smartphones access space-based internet anywhere—no fancy gadgets required.
While Musk’s Starlink needs special dishes and Bezos’ Project Kuiper stays stuck in delays, Avellan’s team already launched working satellites. This isn’t just tech wizardry—it’s about giving power back to rural Americans left behind by coastal elites. No more begging Washington for broadband handouts or bending to Silicon Valley’s woke rules.
Avellan came here from Venezuela chasing freedom, not handouts. He built a $550 million satellite company from scratch, sold it, then poured his fortune into this American project. Unlike some billionaires who lecture us about “global citizenship,” he became a U.S. citizen and flies Old Glory over his headquarters.
SpaceX and Amazon might have bigger names, but AST SpaceMobile scored deals with real companies—not government contracts. Vodafone and Rakuten invested millions without taxpayer cash. That’s the conservative way: earn support through hustle, not lobbyists.
Musk talks about Mars colonies while Avellan focuses on fixing dead zones in Alabama farm country. BlueBird satellites—bigger than a school bus—unfold in space to blanket towns with service. Heartland families don’t need interplanetary pipe dreams. They need working phones during storms or harvest season.
Some globalists whine about “space pollution,” but patriots know better. Avellan’s satellites represent American dominance in the final frontier. While China and Russia militarize orbit, our entrepreneurs turn it into tool for freedom. Every iPhone connected from a tractor proves capitalism works.
The tech swamp hates his success. Beltway bureaucrats slow-walk approvals while doling out favors to Bezos. Coastal media ignore him because he doesn’t preach climate hysteria or diversity quotas. But real Americans—the ones who build, farm, and serve—see a hero.
Avellan lives the American Dream: faith, family, flags. He’s got 24 patents, a wife and kids in Florida, and a company hiring veterans. While others virtue-signal, he delivers. Musk and Bezos should take notes—this is how you innovate without selling out to the mob.
