Summary

Elon Musk handed out $1 million to a voter to boost Republican support in Wisconsin’s Supreme Court race, backing GOP candidate Brad Schimel against Democrat Susan Crawford.

The donation is part of Musk’s America PAC efforts to flip the court and counter “activist judges.”

Musk has invested over $20 million in Schimel’s campaign, with more surprise donations promised before the April 1 election.

The race is seen as a pivotal political battle, while Tesla faces legal challenges in Wisconsin over direct car sales.

    If I had to pick one person (other than Putin) who is the most responsible for all of this, I’d say Robert Mueller.

    He had the best chance to put him down, and he bitched out.

      Mueller did his job. Barr redacted the information before handing it to Congress. Congress tried to get the full report but Trump and Barr stonewalled them.

        Barr distanced himself far from Trump after Jan 6th and no one brings up that guilty fuck anymore.

          Harris did lol, she liked that all of his people were voting for her. Really worked out for her. Instead she should have been pushing for them all to stand trial.
