He stayed here illegally by overstaying a student visa then lied about it on his citizenship application. Legally, he can and should be deported.

After returning all of the taxpayer handouts he and his businesses received over the years. The investigation Krasnov made disappear for Musk's "help in winning" the election being completed would be nice to see as well.

Welcome to the Republican Party.
Whatever they claim to be fighting against (corruption, gay rights, the decay of family values, etc., etc., etc.), they are doing and they're doing it worse than whomever it is they're accusing of doing it.
RJ May, founder of Freedom Focus. Fought for strict anti-abortion laws (including giving the death penalty to doctors who gave assisted in abortions and to the mothers who had one). All in the name of protecting children. Found to have and to be distributing child pornography.
Larry Craig, staunch conservative GOP politician with a consistent record of voting against anything to do with gay rights, caught in a sting operation for solliticiting gay sex services in an airport bathroom. Used campaign funds to finance his legal defense.
Scott Desjarlais didn't just consistently vote to restrict and ban abortion rights and access wherever possible. he championed nonsense legalistions such as Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, which as a physician he would be in a good position to know is BS. Of course, he voted for legislation to defund Planned Parenthood and any health providers giving abortion assistance to women. He also pressured his ex-wife into having not one but two abortions, as well as pressure a patient he was having an affair with into having one as well.
The list goes on. If a Republican opposes something, chances are he's doing it.
So, as a party, if they think one guy is financing all the things they don't like in the world, you don't think they're gonna work double over time to find their own backer? Especially since there's only one Koch brother still alive, I believe.

Im pretty sure Soros donated large sums first. So is it a confession or leveling the field?

u/PretendingImNotAnApe 2h ago
The thing is sorors only broke the top 10 donors once and he was 9th that year. Usually democratic whales barely make the top 20. The billionaire sure got people hating the 5 cents Soros spent on the left to the 94 cents they spend on the right.

The right is always everything it claims the left is because it assumes the left is just like them.

Dude reached out to Epstein's people on Christmas day inquiring about anything other than "a peaceful island experience." This was in 2012, years after Epstein was a known child trafficker. He's way worse than they said Soros is.

If Jefferson's book, Notes on the State of Virginia, are any clue
He would have very much liked Elon. Jefferson was kinda a racist, narcissistic asshole who made comments about it's good slavery exists, otherwise Black folks would destroy all the white man built.

They realized they need to keep their mouths closed and just let their money do the work. Now, more than ever, people need to self-identify. Are you a fucking Nazi lover or not? How much liquid capital does Musk have? How much are his debts?

This is chump change to Musk. If you had a $1,000,000 net worth, for you to give a proportional about of you money as Musk with his $1 Trillion dollar net worth, you would give $276. I guess we are lucky he isn't really putting serious money into the election.
Musk $276,000,000 from $1,000,000,000,000.
Millionaire $276,000,000 from $1,000,000,000,000.

At least $366 million as of yesterday according to The Guardian – the $276 million figure is just since July.
And that's just what's public – $1.3 billion in anonymous dark money has been donated this year.
