Musk later deleted his X post that called the interview “very interesting” and “worth watching,” per the Independent. Musk rarely deletes his social media posts, no matter how inflammatory. Musk is the single biggest individual shareholder at Tesla, the only publicly traded business he owns. Litigation is a key part of the Musk playbook when it comes to any person or group challenging him or his businesses. Angry at advertisers for leaving his Nazi-tolerating social media site, Musk sued a nonprofit ad group out of existence.

Harvey Weinstein, the disgraced Hollywood mogul whose alleged sexual misconduct fueled the #MeToo movement and who was recently indicted on new charges, has chronic myeloid leukemia, two sources told NBC News. The sources added that Weinstein is undergoing treatment in prison at Rikers Island in New York. Chronic myeloid leukemia is an uncommon form of cancer of the bone marrow, according to the Mayo Clinic. In a statement to NBC News on Monday night, Weinstein's legal health care representative Craig Rothfeld said in part, "Out of respect for Mr. Weinstein's privacy, we will offer no further comment."

Karnal, India CNN —The sun blisters the arid ground in Karnal, a district in India’s northern Haryana state, where empty houses stand testament to an acute problem that’s driving some residents to take unimaginable risks. Ankit Chaudhary says he paid an agent to help him take the 'donkey route' into the US but lost his money. His account matched that of another smuggling agent CNN spoke to in Haryana. But even if Trump wins the November election, smugglers CNN spoke to in India predict an eventual revival of the “donkey” route. “In my opinion the donkey route will never completely stop,” said the first agent.

Billionaire tech mogul Elon Musk has forcefully ramped up his efforts to help re-elect former President Donald Trump, raising eyebrows across the political world and inviting questions about the legality of some of his tactics. Meanwhile, news reports have chronicled some of the issues facing America PAC, a political action committee funded by Musk to help boost Trump in the home stretch of the campaign. The two men rallied together earlier this month in Butler, Pennsylvania, where the former president survived an assassination attempt over the summer. The giveaway plan was met with immediate pushback from some election law experts. Rick Hasen, a law professor at UCLA and an NBC News election law analyst, wrote in a post on his website Saturday that the payments were “clearly illegal.”“Essentially what you’re doing is you are creating a lottery.

Josh Shapiro on Sunday said that tech mogul Elon Musk's plan to give money to registered voters in Pennsylvania is "deeply concerning" and "it's something that law enforcement could take a look at" during an interview on NBC News' "Meet the Press." Elon Musk in Pennsylvania announced that he would give away $1 million per day to a registered voter until Election Day. Chesnot / Getty Images fileQuestions about the legality of these cash payments abounded on Saturday night, as elections law experts pointed to various provisions in federal law that prohibited making cash payments to voters. Musk and a representative for America PAC did not immediately respond to requests for comment on this story. "It seems like if this law is going to be enforced, it needs to be deterred," Hasen said.

At a Pennsylvania campaign rally in early October, Trump said he wanted to see human exploration on Mars by the end of his potential second term. That sort of rhetoric, whether intentional or not, links Musk's significant technological success with Trump's own campaign. It remains to be seen, however, just how influential Musk's success at SpaceX, or his other companies, and his campaigning will be with voters who are still on the fence. SpaceXBut SpaceX's achievement and Musk's ties to Trump could give the former president added support with some undecided voters. "Elon Musk, who's having so much success driving things from the private sector, is a guy that wants success in the federal government."

Another person briefed on the matter said America PAC was struggling to find sufficient people to conduct audits in other states. Musk, ranked by Forbes as the world's richest person, so far has supplied at least $75 million to America PAC, according to federal disclosures, making the group a crucial part of Trump's bid to regain the White House.

Former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris face off in the ABC presidential debate on Sept. 10, 2024. The previous Trump administration didn't pursue those types of consumer protections. In contrast, Democrats, including Harris, have historically supported EVs and incentives such as those under the Biden administration's signature Inflation Reduction Act. Meanwhile, Harris, if elected, can build on existing efforts of the Biden administration to deliver savings to more patients, they said. Trump also led multiple efforts to repeal the Affordable Care Act, including its expansion of Medicaid to low-income adults.
