Summary

Elon Musk was revealed as the sole funder of the RBG Pac, donating $20.5M to promote misleading claims that Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg aligned with Donald Trump on abortion.

The PAC’s ads, denounced as deceptive by Ginsburg’s family, aimed to counter Democratic criticism of Trump’s abortion stance.

Musk’s political spending for the 2024 election exceeded $260M, including major contributions to Trump and RFK Jr.

        … Jfc… you’re right. I’ve lamented it for years nonetheless. I guess I’m actually thinking "are people really saying this about the team that will actually use Prism (remember that whole govt access to internet thing?) to hunt down threats to their agenda? "
