"A Pennsylvania state judge on Monday allowed Elon Musk’s $1 million-a-day giveaway to swing state voters to proceed, after a surprising day of testimony in which the billionaire's aide acknowledged his political group selected the contest's winners."
If Elon continues with his rhetoric, which appears he's willing to do, The Attorney General should threaten to seize the funds from the winner and prosecute any person who claims the prize.
That would put a stop to that bullshit.
@joshkaulwi.bsky.social A cease and desist is nice, but not nearly enough. He has already made the offer. He has already paid someone a million dollars. He has already gotten people to register to vote. In short, Elon Musk has broken the law and should be arrested.
I'm sure the administration will do one of those dictator directives and try to bully the AG into dropping it. Similar to the ones he's done against law firms and revoking clearances.
Unless he's taken into police custody as he steps off the plane, this will be disappointing.
Funny how if you're a regular person and you break the law, you get thrown in jail. But if you're rich and break the law, they just ask a court to politely ask you to please not break the law anymore...
YES! Thank you, Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul! You have stepped up not only for Wisconsin but for all Americans to hold ELON MUSK to the rule of law! Americans stand behind your integrity. Thank you.
World’s richest man is buying an election.
Big cash payments to influence selection.
GOP can’t win with no cash protection.
Democracy replaced by massive corruption.
Wisconsin has the opportunity to do the funniest thing here involving a no-notice arrest and a series of clandestine moves through multiple county jails as Elon's attorneys try to figure out where he is. Seems only fair.
Blue State AGs need to start being aggressive. Beyond this, there are likely lots of creative ways to apply State laws against this junta and start working to restore America.
Because if you're gonna just blatantly shit on and ignore America's system of government you should at least have a basic understanding of how it works.
Fucking white supremacist, inherited wealth, douche canoe.
Arrest him! The #KoupKlutzKlan must go. Nobody voted for Musk co destructo. Tired of pretending the Dollar Gen tech billionaire Bond villain administrative coup is legitimate.👹
About time, someone has to get this problem to the Supreme Court, and this is a good step. Citizen's United has to be reviewed in light of what Musk is doing buying votes. It's not poltical speech, it's corrupting our fair election process.
