The Wisconsin Supreme Court Election Is Not the People v. Musk

Last Monday Paul Begala, a dinosaur of the Democratic Party and chief strategist for the Bill Clinton/Al Gore Presidential campaign, appeared on CNN’s “The Lead” with Jake Tapper to rail about the feckless response of his Party to the momentum of Trump’s second term. Radiating the fury of liberals over Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer’s vote to keep the government open for six months without getting any concessions from the Republicans he pulled no punches… Schumer should have demanded “a crackdown on the douchebags that are working for Mr. Musk…” When Tapper pointed out that the Democrats are flailing and leaderless Begala took exception. He predicted that the Democrats are going to take Wisconsin in the upcoming Supreme Court race. He gleefully described how Ben Wikler, Chair of the Wisconsin Democratic Party, had just shared “The People V. Musk”, a billboard campaign about to be deployed across the state which will tie Elon Musk to Supreme Court candidate Brad Schimel with the charge that Musk is buying favors from the bench with his donor support.

That same day, James Carville, another liberal dinosaur from the Clinton era, appeared on News Nation with Chris Cuomo and also predicted a win in Wisconsin. It’s no surprise that national Democratic operatives have zeroed in on Wisconsin’s Supreme Court race. They intend to exploit the flaws in our unverifiable election system to cheat to win.

Ben Wikler has been Chair of the Wisconsin Democratic Party since 2019. Nancy Pelosi called him a “preeminent state party chair”. In recent months, in a failed attempt to become the Chair of the Democratic National Committee (DNC), he spent significant time in the national media spotlight shamelessly exposing that he is a man who will do and say anything to win. He is a masterful liar. Last January he participated with Susan Crawford, liberal candidate for the Wisconsin Supreme Court, in a major donor briefing that was billed as a “chance to put two more House seats in play”. There is little doubt Wikler’s fingerprints are all over the plan to cheat to maintain a liberal majority on the Supreme Court which will pave the way for redrawing Wisconsin’s Congressional districts as a way to flip Republican seats to Democrats.

The spending on the Wisconsin Supreme Court race is projected to reach as high as $100 million. We have come to expect lying and politics to go hand in hand but Wikler’s attempt to deflect from the liberal spending and influence peddling that are fueling this race by making Elon Musk the boogeyman is in a league of its own. George Soros, a liberal extremist and mega donor to Democratic candidates has been in the race in a big way from the outset.

George Soros and Elon Musk – American Billionaires

George Soros, born in Hungary and later becoming a US citizen, made billions as an investor and is one of the richest men in the world. He has invested heavily in American politics pursuing his version of criminal justice reform, calling it the “de-prosecution and de-carceration” of perpetrators of crimes in pursuit of racial equity.

His plan to reshape the system of justice in many urban areas across the country has focused on the election of extremely liberal district attorneys (DAs). There are no limitations on a DA’s decision not to prosecute, unlike the safeguards that prevent over prosecution.  Soros claims that by not prosecuting and incarcerating criminals, cities will be safer.  He gambled that local district attorney elections were little-noticed affairs and he could get his hand- picked candidates elected with modest investments.  His end goal: radical prosecutors would cause a major shift in how the law was enforced.

Soros has been very successful in executing his plan. Larry Krasner of Philadelphia, Kim Fox of Chicago, George Gascon of Los Angeles, Alvin Bragg of New York and dozens more liberal extremists have been elected with Soros’s support. They have wreaked havoc on the safety of American cities. Soros remains a powerful influence in Democratic elections.  In 2022 he was the country’s largest donor contributing $128.5 million to support the Democratic Party.  He has contributed at least $1 million to Susan Crawford’s campaign.

Elon Musk, born in South Africa, became a United States citizen in 2002.  He is the wealthiest man in the world as a result of his extensive, entrepreneurial pursuits. His many successes stand as an unparalleled example of achieving the American dream.  Among his best-known companies are Tesla, an electric vehicle manufacturer; SpaceX, which innovates in reusable rockets and commercial space flight; and “X”, the social media site formerly known as Twitter. His medical technology company Neuralink is engaged in research that holds the promise someday the blind will see and the paralyzed will walk.

Until the COVID pandemic, Musk was a registered Independent and was not a political activist. He contributed to both political parties.  In elections he often voted for the Democrat.

His political leanings took a sharp turn when, like millions of Americans during the COVID pandemic, he realized we were losing our freedom through censorship of free speech and government mandates.  He purchased Twitter as a means of curtailing censorship and threw his support behind Trump in the 2024 election. No one is more capable of leading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to fulfill Trump’s promise to right size the federal government and root out waste, fraud and abuse. His skill and determination make his success very likely, elevating him to an extremely serious threat to all those who profit from the status quo.

Desperate to resist change, corrupt politicians, entrenched government careerists and members of the legacy media are trying to destroy Musk.  In an interview last week, Musk described the waste and fraud he has encountered as beyond anything he could have expected. He explained the blowback: When you take money from people that has been fraudulently obtained, they become very upset. “If we weren’t succeeding, they wouldn’t care”. Musk is paying a high price for the work he is doing on behalf of the American people. Tesla dealerships across the country have been firebombed; he has lost millions as Tesla stock tumbles; and he receives regular credible threats on his life. He presses on.

The enemies of Trump are now the enemies of Musk and they tell us every day he is in this to enrich himself and his billionaire friends. Our own good judgment tells us this is a lie. In the aftermath of hurricane Helene, Musk deployed Starlink, a satellite internet service from Space X, to restore communication and provide free internet to thousands of people who were devastated by the storm. In the same spirit, he deployed Tesla Cybertrucks equipped with Starlink technology and loaded with supplies to provide free internet access to the wildfire-stricken areas of California. It was reported Governor Gavin Newsom wanted the trucks kept out of media camera view for political reasons.

Nine months ago, two American astronauts set off on what was to be an 8-day trip to the International Space Station.  They were stranded.  Months ago, the Biden/Harris administration declined Musk’s offer to bring them home.  It was reported they did not want Musk, who was avidly supporting Trump, to be viewed favorably by the American people.  There are those who are saying this is a lie but Butch Wilmore, one of the stranded astronauts. says it is “absolutely factual”.

Last Tuesday, in a moving triumph of American ingenuity, Musk’s SpaceX dragon capsule, aptly named Freedom, brought the stranded astronauts safely home.

George Soros and Elon Musk are American billionaires.  Soros wants to use his wealth to reshape the American system of justice.  Susan Crawford is his kind of candidate.  Musk has joined the fight to give Brad Schimel the chance to communicate to Wisconsin voters who he is and to combat all the lies being spread about him.

The Wisconsin Supreme Court Election is not the People v. Musk

There is just one principle at stake in the Wisconsin Supreme Court election on April 1 and it is absolutely vital to the integrity of the judiciary.  Brad Schimel will set aside personal policy preferences to adhere strictly to the Constitution and written law in all matters that come before the Court.  Susan Crawford will engage in political activism as part of a liberal majority and legislate from the bench.

We are once again called on to protect our freedom with massive voter turnout to make this election too big to rig.

On April 1 and throughout early voting, let’s get out the vote to elect Brad Schimel to the Wisconsin Supreme Court and Brittany Kinser to Superintendent of Public Instruction.  Vote YES to require voter ID in every election!
