Summary
Elon Musk, after spending $21 million backing conservative Brad Schimel in Wisconsin’s Supreme Court race, amplified election fraud claims following Schimel’s loss to liberal judge Susan Crawford.
Musk boosted a post by Alex Jones featuring Roger Stone, who alleged mail-in vote fraud. Schimel rejected the claims, urging supporters to accept the results.
Musk pivoted to highlighting a voter ID ballot measure, though Wisconsin already requires ID. Critics see his reaction as echoing Trump-era denialism.
Despite GOP pressure, Schimel’s concession stood out for its rare break from MAGA conspiracy rhetoric.

Oh look, Conservatives sowing more doubt and mistrust because they can’t handle it when faced with how unpopular they are.
Quelle surprise.
Sowing like planting seeds not sewing like creating a garment
But now that I think about it they both kinda work… sewing the threads of lies.
Instead of a seamstress, we’ve got a memestress.
Also not sure what it means to quelle surprise.
I also have no clue. Though Quelle in German is a spring, or source.
Yes I’m familiar with the German word Quelle. All bottled carbonated water in Germany seems to come from one Quelle or another.
I’m thinking they were going for the English word “quell”?
quell /kwĕl/
transitive verb
-
To put down forcibly; suppress.
“Police quelled the riot.”
-
To pacify; quiet.
“finally quelled the children’s fears.”
-
To take the life of; to kill.
Similar: kill
-
It’s French for what a surprise
You know, I looked at that and knew it looked wrong but brain couldn’t figure out why.
Thanks!

Perhaps some leading election deniers are motivated by a psychological defense mechanism, but I think that many realize the strategic benefit. The members of the public who are convinced that Democrats steal elections will vote Republican. They’ll also be more willing to accept a Republican refusing to leave office after losing an election, if things come to that.
Anyone voting Republican after 2017 is a lost cause. No matter what happens they are voting R. Save your breath and sympathy.
I disagree. While I will never forgive those voters, I don’t think most of them are lost causes. They’ve been manipulated by the largest, most well-funded misinformation and propaganda campaign ever waged against the American people.
Exercising even the smallest amount of critical thinking skills protects oneself against most of it, but no one is completely immune to misinformation.
Sure buddy I’m sum it up for you. “Two Trump Elections.” But keep turning the other cheek. This time Lucy won’t pull the football. She promised. 🙄
I’m not sure how that’s related to what I wrote.
Anyone who still supports HitlerPig is as much a traitor and Nazi as he is. If you don’t like hearing that, atop being a traitor and a Nazi.
Musk = POS Nazi.
YOU LITERALLY BOUGHT VOTES
…Which is why he thinks it’s rigged…
Can’t argue with that logic. CHECK AND MATE, LIBERAL!
He’s been able to get whatever he wants by throwing money at it his whole life, so when it doesn’t work he automatically cries foul.
Exactly like Trump.
At this point, I don’t see how we can ever trust conservative again. They kept showing they won’t play by any rules, they are willing to lie, cheat and manipulate to get what they want. The left needs to radicalize his actions, you cannot negotiate with cheaters.
JFC, Conservatives have NEVER played by the rules others made. The central tenet of Conservative is that there is an in group (Conservatives) which the law protects but does not bind and an out group which the law binds but does not protect.
You’re only realizing this now?
I guess maybe? Since technically, he did buy it, right? But this is sort of like calling the cops because someone stole your heroin, isn’t it??
Waaaaaaaaaa!
3…2…1… wooowww, is he REALLY saying that? I am SO surprised and I really NEVAH expected this to happen! Oh my God, did this really happen?
Nah, of course not
We all knew immediately after her win that this was the next step. First try to cheat, if that doesn’t work, lie about the other cheating to get what you want.
Elmo is a mysigenic sociopathic narcissist sho actively destroys and ends lives.
It’s about time someone besides Democrats spent buttloads of money in order to lose it all.
Really? I want to know how Leon Hitler manipulated the voting machines in the swing states.
All GOP elections “were stolen” when suffering such a loss… I would be embarrassed too, if I spent that “random winning money” the GOP voters were gifted and STILL were defeated by a LANDSLIDE! 😂 Drumpf is def cry texting his “friends” about it! Lmao!?
Damn, Epstein is dead… guess we don’t know who he was “texting” lmao!!!
Musk boosted a post by Alex Jones featuring Roger Stone
It’s like a who’s who of absolutely garbage people.
Roy Cohn was also consulted by seance.
He and Trump and GOP aren’t petty there. They inject more distrust about the whole idea of voting. Rich people and corporation can lobby, but they still can’t directly buy an election or a cabinet seat in the open. They spend a lot to push up some candidate after ensuring their loyalty, and it seems suboptimal to them. There is a golden moment where you probably can game the system to make max profits and then grab the bag and run. Because democracies are at least stable, and when they roll into dictatorships, you stop playing solitaire, it’s now blackjack and you are walking a thin line between bankruptcy and being shot dead by a firing squad, because your elected politician has too much power to be securely bought.
I feel like it’s disproportionally favors developing startups\companies\scams who need some boost to start to break even, or old blood that can tolerate some pain if they may consume every other actor on the scene.
There are benefactors to that, and they are the worst people on the market who would only accelerate the collapse for their short term gains.
Good point.
Elon, this isn’t an auction you disphit
With the right, it’s. Always. Projection.
