The ads are a smattering of anti-trans hysterics and culture war talking points attacking James Talarico in Texas, Sherrod Brown in Ohio, Josh Turek in Iowa, Mary Peltola in Alaska, and Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan. (Musk is also funding some ads in New Hampshire and Maine, but they did not seem to target trans people.) Ads are running on the airwaves, as well as online on sites like Google, Instagram, and Facebook.

      Musk and his ilk don’t think they have to care about votes much longer as long as they hold a base of support. They are going for the full rig of elections here but already are doing myriad cheats I bet.

      They’ll go to full throated capitalism chasing that Republican voter approval.

    Seems like they have done this every election no? I don’t recall 2016 or 2018 particularly, but every one since it’s been one of their main things as I recall.

    The issue that affects their voters 0% is naturally a great one for the party looking to steal everything from everyone.
