‘Oh, forgot to mention…’: Musk says he’ll be using his money to primary BOTH sides

December 20, 2024 | | Print Article

Elon Musk will be using his money to back primary challenges to both sides in the 2026 midterm elections, putting the uniparty on notice that the times have changed and that political accountability is back on the table.

The billionaire Tesla/SpaceX CEO roiled the great D.C. swamp when he spoke out against the latest grand scam perpetrated against the American people, a 1,500+ page pork sandwich that lawmakers were given mere hours to swallow before voting to keep the government open less than a week before Christmas.

In showing the power that X has as a free speech platform and the new media, Musk called for the public to put pressure on lawmakers to reject the congressional holiday spending spree in which lawmakers also gave themselves a generous raise, with one of his posts about the bill suggesting that members voting yes should be sent packing by voters.

President-elect Donald J. Trump then came out against the doomed bill by calling for GOP lawmakers who supported it to be primaried.

“Any Republican that would be so stupid as to do this should, and will, be Primaried. Everything should be done, and fully negotiated, prior to my taking Office on January 20th, 2025,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

When the bill was pulled and then replaced with a slimmed-down version that lopped off 1,400 pages or so of pork, censorship funding, and the shielding of Liz Cheney and the J6 committee from being held accountable, Democrats went into orbit, flooding the zone with the talking point of “President Musk” in their angry diatribes against the X owner.

In response to one Democrat “jackass” who railed against him from the House floor, Musk announced that he’ll be heavily involved in districts controlled by the left-wing party this time.

“Oh … forgot to mention that I’m also going to be funding moderate candidates in heavily Democrat districts, so that the country can get rid of those who don’t represent them, like this jackass,” he announced.

Musk’s pledge was greeted like a breath of fresh air from X users.

Democrats squealed like stuck pigs but the fact of the matter is that they haven’t had a problem with billionaires using their money to influence politics as long as they benefitted.

Trump’s election after all that the rotten uniparty establishment threw at him was a mandate to clean house in D.C. and this time, he has help.
