Elon Musk's America PAC begins midterm spending, names Senate targets
Q: "Elon Musk's America PAC has donated more than $170,000 to your campaign…Do you have any comment?" Susan Collins: "I wasn't aware of that donation…I don't agree with him on everything but I do agree with him that we need to eliminate waste and be much more efficient in government."
Jameslet47He didn’t elimate any waste though Susan.
Annabel Lee36If you can’t remember a contribution that large, you need to resign.
ScottMGagnon30I'm a Mainer who was one of the HHS feds who got DOGE'd. I was the SAMHSA Regional Director for New England. When I reached out to her office they refused to help me, but shared their "concern", now I know the real reason.
JHB22Fuck her. I have had it. Enough.
John Smith Of the Smiths of Smithtown by the village smithy17"I wasn't aware of that donation…I don't agree with him on everything but I do agree with him that I need to have donations."
Jodi13$170k to your campaign is a lot of waste.
Andrea LaFlamme68Imagine being the goddamn CHAIR OF THE SENATE APPROPRIATIONS COMMITTEE, rubber stamping every single one of Trump’s requests, writing ICE a big blank check, and saying that you agree that we need to get rid of waste and be more efficient. GTFO, Susan.
Murshed Zaheed47Collins is trying to distance herself from Musk. She shouldn't be able to given how DC elites can't find any daylight b/w Sayed & a streamer. Just like Collins, Sayed can say: "I don't agree with him on everything but I do agree w/ him that we need to tax billionaires & rein in MAGA corruption."
Evan Sutton14Maybe someone could ask her some followup questions. Like, say: While running DOGE, Musk reportedly fired workers who were investigating his businesses. Do you support that?
Cathy Gellis12ARE YOU AWARE OF HOW MUCH HE COST US IN EFFICIENCY AND MONEY??? AND IF NOT THEN WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING IN GOVERNMENT???
Justin11I know this sounds stupid but it’s actually a clever way to say “go fuck yourself” without swearing. Because that’s all she means.
Sylvia Chi 齊思涵8The question *should* be: in the context of his white nationalist and Islamophobic views and facilitation and distribution of AI-generated sexual abuse material, do you disavow and condemn Elon Musk and his financial support for your campaign?
Doomer VonDoomington 🇺🇦8He didnt do either of those things.
Leena 🌵5find it incredibly difficult to believe a donation of that size doesn’t get a hand-written thank you note, which you’d think she’d remember
Gautham Rao (pronounced: Knicks in 5)5Well Susan you’ve been in the government for like two thousand years already so
Jodi Jacobson5Still on their "waste and efficiency" bullshit after paying 10x more for needed gov't services they demolished, or have to pay people they fired to come back bcz they had no fucking clue what they lost, or wasted billions in research by killing programs out of spite. That "waste and efficiency?"
America PAC disclosed it spent $800,000 last month, primarily on competitive Senate races across seven states, including Texas and Maine.
dabxdee.bsky.social6The real welfare queens and terrorists are not coming from other countries, they're right on Capitol Hill, holding office, wearing robes and badges, and running multi billion dollar corporations. All on your dime. Your oppression is their profession. pathological psychopaths.
knominow2.bsky.social5Billionaire who committed 2 voter fraud crimes is back at it… he destroyed our democracy & was caught cheating but no prosecutions..(?)here he is again.. we pay him $8 million a day to destroy US…this is what happens when greed is goal no matter how many people u unalive ….DEMS NEED TO PROSECUTE HIM
jonsmith841.bsky.social4This is why corporate and individual wealth needs to be removed from politics.
totnes49.bsky.social2Evil immigrant corrupts US democracy - again.
allpi.bsky.social2I don’t understand the US. Very concerned about foreign interference in elections but clearly this is domestic voting interference🤔
Dyson Poincaré1Oh, yeah, like they only spent $800k... my ass.
Susan Collins getting that sweet sweet Elon cash. Well-earned. #MEpolitics
Collins Watch6Very same day Musk announced he was throwing money into ME-SEN on behalf of his friend Susan Collins he's slinging virulent antisemitism on his Nazi-friendly app! Is there going to be a Hasan Piker-sized uproar about Collins association with him from beltway media? #MEpolitics
Dave Kartunen2I can’t wait for all 7 of these people to lose.
Republicans who take Elon Musk's money, and that's essentially all Republicans, should be asked whether they agree with Elon Musk's theories about racial eugenics and the supremacy of whites.
freelib.bsky.social2This is epically racist and bigoted.
Whatever breed elon is, it’s def not superior.
qm61.bsky.social1The danger of using grok to give you answers. Elon’s understanding of genotypic and phenotypic expression is child like. Epigenetic, chromatin, physiological and environmental factors directly and indirectly affect gene expression. It’s not simply nucleotide order.
Reporter asks Susan Collins about Elon Musk’s donations. Not with an accusatory “do you denounce…” frame, but does ask. Here’s how Collins dodges.
Hank Hoffman31Terrible. The question has to be exactly as you framed it—“In accepting financial help from Musk, aren’t you signaling that you’re ok with his egregious racism, sexism, antisemitism, Islamophobia?” Any reporter who doesn’t ask it in that way is failing the public.
Abba Irik2Getting rid of her will be especially satisfying.
game-of-pricks.bsky.social1Collins ended by saying, “Yes, I know that he’s a horrible person and a textbook villain but Oh Look!…” She then pointed at something off camera and ran away.

Lee West8Elon Musk Named in Bombshell Election Meddling Claim. www.yahoo.com/news/politic...
death-b4-dishonor.bsky.social4Unless he is actually writing people checks directly for votes, I don't see what he's going to accomplish. This isn't 2024 where they can tap into hate, insecurity about a black women being president, or the ability to blame others for their current struggles. People know how they feel & who did it.
Vector Ze3The subject should be Citizens United. And the object is an anti-USA immigrant traitor who should be deported.
Green Hombre2Epstein Island Reject says what?
Roland Gerritsen van der Hoop1Dems, use this to embarrass GOP candidates he is helping. Musk is openly anti-Semitic and naturally does not care about the damage data centers do. After Trump he may be the most hated person in America. He is the quintessential broligarch.
Chris H1If it’s disclosed where Musk is spending, could be a big help to the non-R candidate. Seems few people are impressed with that rich Nazi these days😁😁😁
Elon Musk knew the 2024 election results four hours before the polls closed because he CREATED them. We knew, we just didn’t know how. Now we know it was Musk manipulation. And isn’t that election fraud? Jail time fraud? thiswillhold.substack.com/p/musk-unmas...
Sara Kollack-Walker3Who will pursue justice… the DOJ?
Lee K1@drjackbrown.bsky.social - it all makes sense, Dems must speak up now.
Lee K1@governor.ca.gov @govpritzker.illinois.gov @governorwalz.mn.gov @govwesmoore.bsky.social @govandybeshear.bsky.social @governor.ny.gov @raskin.house.gov There needs to be an investigation NOW before Musk does it again. Don't let the people down again.
