Elon Musk has now spent nearly $400 million to BUY Congress in the 2026 election. This is BIGGEST donations ever in US history. No one should be able to have that much power. This is from Wash Post today on the GOP's top donors. Musk far and away the biggest!

Trump owned up to $9.5 million in investments in data center-involved companies at the end of 2025, a more than 600% increase in these investments at the end of 2024. It's no shock that he wants more construction of data centers and less oversight.
