Elon Musk Pays Voters, Pours Cash Into $82 Million Wisconsin Race

This is out-right vote buying, i.e BRIBARY. This totally illegal. But Muskrat is being allowed to get away with it. We the People need to get angry and put a stop to this.

“People don’t like Elon Musk, so that’s in our favor. He’s very unpopular,” said Carlene Bechen, a community organizer in southern Dane County. “But I’m also angry that Musk thinks he can buy everything.”

@ElwoodBlues imagine paying taxes and not having a say on how it is spent
@MarineBob Elon is a citizen and has a vote just like everyone else. I don't see the problem.

@ElwoodBlues It's vote buying. He is giving money to people to vote for a certain candidate. That is bribery. It is highly illegal.

@MarineBob Getting the tax laws changed is worth so much more!

@ElwoodBluesElon is a resident but NOT a US citizen. That means hes ineligible to vote.
@justanothername according to most sources, Elon Musk became a naturalized U.S. citizen in 2002. “Musk has been a U.S. citizen since 2002 according to a 2023 biography of Musk by journalist Walter Isaacson.”

In addition to his American citizenship, Musk also retains South Africa citizenship and is also a Canadian citizen through his mother Maye Musk, who was born and raised in Canada but lived most of her adult life in South Africa.

Her connection to the country enabled Elon to obtain a Canadian passport in 1989 and study for two years at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario, before arriving in the U.S.

@ElwoodBlues He didn’t add any value to the US with his citizenship.

@MarineBob When it gives you the power to influence decisions that allow your private business and interests to be seen to fruition. Well then $200,000 is a bonus.
