Elon Musk is spending $120 million to keep the Senate red

Elon Musk is back, friend.

And this time he's not buying a presidency — he's trying to buy a Senate.

Musk's super PAC has already put more than $8 million into these midterms, with over $6 million of it aimed squarely at the Senate races that decide the majority:

$2.6 million in Texas
$1.7 million in Ohio
$1.5 million in Michigan
Hundreds of thousands more in Maine, Iowa and Alaska

And that's just the warm-up. Musk has reportedly authorized up to $120 million to elect Republicans this fall. He spent more than $260 million to put Trump in the White House in 2024. He can write a check bigger than our entire ad budget and never feel it.

Think about what he's buying. This is the man who spent four months running DOGE, taking a chainsaw to the federal government, then walked away and left the wreckage behind. Now he's spending a fortune to keep the Senate in the hands of the people who handed him the chainsaw, and who'll hand it right back.

Here's the thing about Elon Musk, though: His money is enormous, and his vote is exactly the same size as yours.

He has one. We have millions. That's the entire game. When enough people give $10 and $25, our candidates go on the air with money that costs them half what Musk's super PAC pays for the same 30 seconds, and no billionaire gets to decide who represents Ohio, or Michigan, or Maine.

Elon Musk is betting he can buy this majority. Let's send him a bill he can't pay.
