Elon Musk isn’t just buying Twitter again.

Now, he’s throwing $20 million into a Wisconsin Supreme Court race to back conservative judge Brad Schimel.

This isn’t just about one seat. It’s about power, policies, and maybe even his own business interests.

 

Musk’s $20M Secret

Let’s be real, billionaires don’t throw around millions just for fun. Musk claims he’s supporting Schimel to prevent “voting fraud” (which, by the way, isn’t actually a problem).

But there’s more to the story. Tesla recently got blocked from opening dealerships in Wisconsin due to a state law.

That decision could end up in the very court Schimel wants to join. Seems a little too convenient, don’t you think?

This election has already shattered records. With over $100 million being poured in from all sides, it’s officially the most expensive judicial election in U.S. history.

Musk’s $20 million makes him the biggest donor by far, even outspending billionaire activists like George Soros.

 

Is Justice for Sale?

If this works, it sets a dangerous precedent. Who needs votes when you’ve got cash? Wisconsin’s Supreme Court controls key policies on abortion, labor rights, and voting laws, and Musk’s money could tip the scales.

His opponent, Judge Susan Crawford, calls this a battle of “People vs. Musk.”

And she’s not wrong. Democrats in Wisconsin are fired up, with 80% of campaign conversations now revolving around Musk. Even Republicans are feeling uneasy about an out-of-state billionaire deciding their next judge.

Musk isn’t just donating. He’s offering $1 million prizes to Wisconsinites who sign petitions supporting his causes. Some say that’s bribery. Others call it business.

But one thing is clear: if he can buy a Supreme Court seat in Wisconsin, what is stopping him from doing it everywhere else?
