John Johnston (JJ) breaks down how Elon Musk is spending a massive amount of money on an Midterm election campaign in Texas, against Democrat James Talarico, and he’s also attacking Talarico on Elon’s own social media platform, X. We hear from various commentators on the issue, including writer Stephen King, Alex Gibney, Dave Neal, Emma Vigeland, Crystal Ball, Elon “influencer” Steven Mark Ryan, and of course Elon Musk and Talarico themselves.
