An Elon Musk-linked PAC called America PAC is targeting vulnerable Democrats, as reported by Business Insider.
The Tesla and X owner is spending “$86,997 in New Mexico’s 2nd district, where Democratic Rep. Gabe Vasquez faces former Republican Rep. Yvette Herrell,” the outlet reported.
Federal Election Commission (FEC) documents show the entity is spending $2.1 million in the 14 most competitive U.S. House races.
“There’s likely to be more where that came from. Punchbowl News reported on Monday that the PAC has set aside $10 million for “voter turnout” in House races around the country,” per Insider.
Following the news, Vasquez’s campaign sent out a panic-stricken email, claiming the PAC, which reports openly to the FEC, is a “dark money” group, claiming, “Republican dark money is FLOODING into NM-02 right now. MAGA extremists will stop at nothing to elect Yvette Herrell, establish their anti-choice MAGA agenda and relentlessly attack Gabe Vasquez.”
“Elon Musk’s America PAC has already spent over $55 MILLION to support Donald Trump, and now? They’re investing an ADDITIONAL $2.1 million to support MAGA extremists in competitive House races like Gabe’s,” his campaign continued.
The email concluded, “Gabe is a threat to their extremist anti-democratic agenda and that’s why their dark money is ENDLESSLY flooding our district,” despite Democrats installing their presidential nominee, Kamala Harris, without a single vote from the American people.
It is unclear what the Democrats’ campaign believes is “extreme” about Herrell, who has a commonsense platform that includes protecting the border, fighting crime, and solving the inflation crisis created by Vasquez, Biden, and Harris.
On the other hand, Vasquez believes in open borders, voted for illegal aliens to vote, and voted against anti-inflationary bills, as well as having a rap sheet of his own for his crimes.
Vasquez, who squeaked out the smallest of wins in 2022, faces fierce competition from Herrell, a former state lawmaker and congresswoman for the Second District.
Thank you Mr. Musk! Yvette is most definitely the best choice for CD-2 and America.
Thanks Elon. Now can you bring one of your companies to NM, we need jobs! Thank you!
The Dems are so blind and void of common sense that they cannot see that THEY (DEMOCRATS) are the (extremists)!!
This is great. We need to get rid of the scum in the round house, the comrades of the evil queen of darkness MLG. The Democrats will stop at nothing and will lie and so their mother down the river to get what they want. So now maybe the tables are turning we have an even field hopefully!
AMEN.
Yes, Thanks Elon. I would guess our schools need to be better to support more of Elons companies. When our schools are dead last in the nation not sure we have the talent he needs. There is a path forward, vote the leftist democrats out of power so teachers can teach the 3 R’s not the woke agenda trying to make our children childless.
Thank you Elon Musk. It’s nice to know someone remembers us here in New Mexico!
Thanks Elon , New Mexico needs all the help it can get especially from business people like yourself. We must turn this state red.
And how much $$$$$ did George Soros spend on Vasquez campaign? And how much the DNC????
GV is just another extremist who supports the Anti-Christ elements in the Democrat’s party platform.
Thank you Elon. It is the Democrats who have the dark money and the dark hearts; they’re the ones who support abortion, but are against common sense concepts like police protection and border security.
