- Elon Musk must attend an emergency court hearing in Philadelphia on Thursday to address a bid by the city’s top prosecutor to stop the Tesla CEO and his political action committee from continuing to award $1 million prizes to registered voters in the swing state of Pennsylvania.
- Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner revealed his lawsuit against Musk and the America PAC “triggered an avalanche of [social media] posts from Musk’s followers,” many of whom “made antisemitic attacks on Krasner.”
- Krasner’s lawsuit accuses Musk and the PAC of operating an illegal lottery and trying to influence voters in the presidential election between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump.

I'll bet my life savings that he doesn't show up, and that he doesn't do any jail time because of that.
I say this in jest, but,
Eat your heart out Martha Stewart.
Normally I would agree with you, but a Philadelphia DA doesn't order Musk to appear in person without knowing what he'll do. It's warrant bait, pure and simple.
Idk, I hope you're right. I agree about what it is but I don't think we agree how it'll shake out.
I think we want the same shake out, I'm just pessimistic here.
This dude has more money than that whole state. No fucking chance.
PA GDP is over $1T.
What I'm trying to say here is that his budget to remain free will far exceed the states budget to try and put him in prison.
I would love to be wrong on this.
The United States GDP is £25 Trillion. Musk and his peers have £35 Trillion in offshore tax havens (as of 2016).
