"And a new FEC report shows that Musk’s bribes are accelerating. He has spent $366 million during the 2026 midterms, with $276 million spent since July. That’s even more than the $288 million he spent during the 2024 election. This makes him the single biggest issuer of political bribes during this election cycle." This is a political donation, not 'bribes'. Every wealthy person in the United States does this. Why focus on Musk? When Zuckerberg spent $500 million to stop Republicans in elections across the country, did we see these same articles? It's just so convenient how these things only go one way. "In fact, just this last week, Musk intimated that James Talarico, the Democratic candidate for Texas Senate, was in a mental hospital in Ohio… " He was in a hospital for weeks with the 'flu' and looks completely healthy. This is suspicious. The main problem is that Liberals pushed too hard for EVs without the proper infrastructure. Then they wanted to give no incentive to buy them by removing tax incentives for drivers. The rising cost of electricity doesn't help either. Countries like China are getting ahead because they can easily get cheap energy in the form of coal. They don't care about regulations.

That website has really changed. It used to report on tesla stuff pretty objectively all the time. Now the tesla articles are uniformly negative biased, and it has lots and lots of cheapo-amazon-stuff articles that are thinly veiled advertisements-for-cash / affliliate links.
