Most of Ken Paxton’s Money Can Be Traced to One Man: Elon Musk The world’s richest person, who has become the biggest known midterm donor, gave $158 million to a group that quickly spent that much to help Mr. Paxton’s Senate bid in Texas. Why do you think this is???

The midterms’ largest donor, then, is a person who controls an enormous information source, one that he frequently uses to amplify politically motivated lies and fake news—including tweeting about the possibility of “large-scale fraud” in elections.

Utah combed its voter rolls and found only 27 confirmed noncitizens out of more than 2 million registered voters. Of those 27 noncitizens, only 13 had cast a ballot since 2018. But as the state’s Republican elections chief said, that’s not what Trump wanted to hear: demdock.com/4ejGo5Q

Shocking: Trump officials are offering $2,500 or more to detained teens as young as 14 if they agree to leave the US. Kids also get a memo threatening long detention, and prosecution of noncitizen parents, if they press their legal case: “You will be detained for a prolonged period of time.”
