Elon Musk is paying off Wisconsin voters

In a video posted by Elon Musk’s PAC, a $1M check recipient linked voting to receiving the money: “My name’s Ekaterina Deistler. …I did exactly what Elon Musk told everyone to do: sign the petition, refer friends and family, vote, and now I have a million dollars.”

Just before Musk's event in Green Bay tonight, the WI Supreme Court unanimously declined to bar him from handing out $1 million payments to voters

Musk has already committed the crime and the AG can get an arrest warrant any time he wants. This filing by the AG is intentionally wrong - he's pretending to do something, knowing that it does nothing. The AG is pulling a fast one on the public to avoid charging Musk with a crime.

Musk is handing out checks right now with 50 cops watching him.

Gee, it’s almost as if the AG seeking an injunction against the commission of a felony is procedurally incorrect. The warrant you need is for the ARREST of Elon Musk.

It’s not on the court. The AG is ducking his duties and set them up. bsky.app/profile/samh...

if you think this violates the law (and it very clearly does imo), you don't seek an injunction, you seek an indictment, given that the law makes it a class 1 felony. cowardice from the AG, cowardice from the courts, nobody wants the responsibility of actually enforcing the law. cowards all around

Truly lawyer and dem-consultant brained for people to think "showing the average person that rich and powerful are not above the law when they flagrantly commit crimes" is somehow bad for democracy or a political loser

it is very clear, in light of the claims, that this was the "soft" approach.

for the people in good faith (or even less) responding to this: if the world's richest man comes into your state and tries to buy your elections, and you are the attorney general of that state, you do everything you can—you think creatively about it—to stop him. to do less is to fail your state.
