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.
People who feel they can fuck with elections should also learn what a few years in a cell feels like.
A few? These are the people that did backflips because the left handed out water bottles to voters in line. Put them under the cell, I’m exhausted over the blatant hypocrisy.
I’m sure this is rigged. I doubt this asshole would just give anyone free money.

Ok, I’m kidding…
I mean there won’t be an election, but that’s the future at this point…
No… it’s really not, though.
What’s really not? If you think Trump or SCOTUS plan on allowing any sort of actual election to happen you’re sadly mistaken…
Barring something drastic happening, we’re cooked.
Negative Kimosabe. If that was a real actual possibility the protests would be real, and big and i would be a part of them.
No… if trump goes rouge and tries to stay in power, that is exactly why we bare arms.
I’ve seen so many now that are expressing great fear like yourself.
that is exactly why we bare arms
I don’t know how tank tops will stop trump but you do you. /s
But hey, remember when the overturning of roe v wade was just fear mongering and they wouldn’t really do it? How project 2025 wasn’t actually what they planned to do? How the supreme court would never grant broad immunity to a president? At this point, assuming Trump would try to keep power past 28 is just good sense.
Ok, I can see what you’re saying, but those things compared to Trump seizing control of the White House are much different things. I think yes, many idol worshipping Trumpsters would like Trump to take control, but that’s a small group compared to Republicans on the whole. Many Republicans own weapons for this reason. This is a democracy, everyone votes to choose our president. No wanna be dictators allowed.
Trump understands all this, he’s not going to start a civil war. If he does anything, I think he might try to make a 3rd term a thing, but he would do it through legal channels.
much different things
In scale maybe, but fundamentally it’s all about consolidating power and dismantling democracy.
but he would do it through legal channels.
Why start now? Also nothing short of a constitutional amendment can make that happen legally (unless the Supreme Court declares the constitution unconstitutional, hah). Even if he personally doesn’t retain power, I expect Republicans to dismantle the system to the point that they can just install another sycophant.
Gives us plenty of time to source the finest woods
Is this the same scam as last time, where these “winners” were actually paid spokespeople?

THIS IS FUCKING ASININE. FUCIEN BRIBERY IN THE OPEN SEND THIS FUCKER TO PRISON. IM SO SICK OF RICH PEOPLE CONTROLLING THE WORLD AND OUR LIVES WITH MONEY.
The law ain’t shit. It’s up to the people to impose justice.
Can you legally pay someone to vote let alone vote a certain way?
I’m hoping that enough people see through the insanity and don’t bite on the propaganda, the $100 if you vote for schimel, etc. I’m cautiously hopeful after the PA race where a trump +15 district flipped blue that there’s enough momentum to flip this the right way
