Elon Musk, a billionaire and close ally of US President Donald Trump, is facing sharp legal action after making a promise to donate$ 1 million to two Wisconsin citizens in the Supreme Court election. Musk’s latest attempt to sway people’s hearts with his tremendous wealth is seen as the result of the move.
Attorney General of Wisconsin Josh Kaul confirmed strategies to “take legitimate action today to ask for a court order to stop this from happening” and that his business was “aware of the offer just posted by Elon Musk.”
The richest man in the world and a vital advisor to President Donald Trump, Elon Musk, has already made millions of dollars to back Republican member Brad Schimel. Schimel’s election would transform Wisconsin’s Supreme Court to a conservative majority, which could have far-reaching effects on the battle position.
Musk stated in a blog on X, the social media platform he owns that he would “hand over investigations worth a million dollars” to two people who mark a petition opposing “activist courts,” a word often used by Republicans to criticize judicial decisions that are inconvenient with Trump’s policies. Additionally, every signer of the petition will receive a$ 100 pledge from Musk.
In the upcoming word, the Wisconsin Supreme Court will act on important issues, including voting laws and access to abortion before the midterm elections in 2026. Trump has backed Schimel a lot, and he recently highlighted the significance of the competition on his Truth Social software, calling it “really big and important.”
Similar high-stakes economic initiatives he has made in battleground state during the upcoming presidential election cycle are reflected in Musk’s present in Wisconsin. His increasing political control comes as well as his companies ‘ considerable state contracts and his impact in Trump’s administration, where he has helped to reduce spending in both domestic and foreign policy areas.
Tesla has also filed a lawsuit in Wisconsin over the government’s refusal to give dealer licenses for its vehicles. The company is facing declining stock prices as a result of Musk’s public backlash.
