American businessman Ilon Musk has spent at least $ 132 million on the campaign of Donald Trump and other Republicans this year, Bloomberg reports. This level of donations lifted him to the upper echelon of political donors, making the mask one of the most active sponsors of the election in 2024. Contributions demonstrate how a businessman is expanding his network of political influence, including a potential future president and Congress members.
Journalists point out that Musk plays an unprecedented role for a political donor in the 2024 campaign. At the same time, NASA Administrator Bill Nelson urged investigating information between mask and Russian President Vladimir Putin, which, according to the media, has been ongoing since the end of 2022. Nelson emphasized that such links are concerned about national security, as SpaceX's relationship with NASA and the US military can provide a mask with access to secret information and US intelligence.
In addition, the US Department of Justice has warned the America Pac Political Committee Ilona Mask about a possible violation of federal law due to a lottery for registered voters in "key" states, whose winners are paid at $ 1 million.
Not so long ago, it became known that Ilon Musk secretly funded a conservative political group before he was openly supported by Donald Trump's re -election. This information was confirmed by Reuters sources, noting that such activity emphasizes the growing political impact of a mask in American politics.
