Elon Musk Hands Out $1 Million Checks to Wisconsin Voters Despite Legal Challenge

What Happened: Musk handed out two $1 million checks to Wisconsin voters at a rally in Green Bay, moments after the state Supreme Court declined to block the scheme. Musk claimed the recipients were “spokespeople” for his America PAC—a very bad attempt to dodge vote-buying laws. He’s already funneled over $20 million into the Wisconsin Supreme Court race, calling it vital to Trump’s agenda and GOP control of Congress.

Why It Matters: This is a brazen case of political bribery and attempting to influence a Tesla lawsuit. Offering cash to voters guts the principle of free and fair elections. Two courts and even a liberal-majority state Supreme Court refused to stop it, setting a dangerous precedent. If this stands, billionaires will escalate buying influence with direct payouts—shredding election integrity in plain sight.
