After faltering in his plan to found a new ‘America Party’, the world’s richest person is returning to the GOP fold
In the aftermath of his spectacular falling out with Donald Trump last year, Elon Musk blasted the Republican Party as a corrupt force that was “bankrupting” the United States of America.
But now, after months in the political wilderness, the volatile tech baron has indicated that he will once again devote his enormous fortune to electing GOP politicians, this time ahead of the midterm elections in 2026.
“America is toast if the radical left wins,” declared Musk on X Thursday. “They will open the floodgates to illegal immigration and fraud. Won’t be America anymore.”

We’re surprisingly cheap with above board “donations”. Let’s all pretend that’s all they get.
In the 70s, the FBI ran a sting, bribing government officials (congress, judge, etc). They immediately caught like 30 of them, fish in a barrel. It was called “Abscam”.

Let’s say he had to give everyone in leadership of congress and executive and courts a MILLION DOLLARS. He’d still be unfathomably wealthy, he wouldn’t even notice it’s missing.
They’ll sell out usually for five-six figures, or even a lucrative trading tip.
Epstein did a lot of this “lobbying”. Sometimes those who need to be bought have certain secrets they wish to share.
