political action committee has filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission against Donald Trump over his recent two-hour live interview with Elon Musk.
End Citizens United, a Democrat-aligned PAC, claims that the interview "amounted to a virtual campaign event" for Trump financed by X, formerly Twitter, which would be in violation of federal law.
The complaint names Trump, his campaign treasurer Bradley T. Crate and X as the respondents.
"Such a brazen corporate contribution undermines the anti-corruption aims of the Act, and the Commission should immediately investigate these violations and take appropriate remedial action," the complaint said, referring to the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971.

Has God forgiven you yet?
Exactly.
Pictures like this are more accurate.
If they did he should cancel. Wasn’t the Butler rally the only one they covered?
CNN had his rally live today.
That’s the only thing I caught though.
Trump has been interviewed elsewhere without this viewership.
There is something special about his synergy with Musk and X.
Anyway, I meant the “in kind contributions” they allege Musk has made to Trump. It amounts to zero or nearly so, as it is all overhead for operating X. There is no “variable cost” for online media, as capacity is effectively infinite. Musk himself is the biggest cost, arguably, as his time is extremely valuable, if it were to be charged as an hourly rate. But no court can require that.
“Once Musk’s legal team shows evidence that Musk offered her an equal time opportunity to be interviewed by Musk, the lawsuit will be dismissed.”
In today’s justice system the outcome is often determined by the judge, not the law.
That is soooo yesterday...
In today's justice system, the outcome is determined by the defendant.

It’s easy to see why Deep State is freaking out, isn’t it...
These Democriminals are shameless.
You know...Elon Musk once casually told industry elites that advertise on his X platform that if they wanted to blackmail him with money that they could “Go F-— Yourself”. It wouldn’t hurt my “fragile sensibilities” one bit if I heard Donald Trump tell the liberal woke Democrat extremist establishment to practice the same act and do it to perfection.
FYI...it wasn’t an interview. It was a conversation.
The BS Lawfare from the Left continues...
When will the GOP start fighting back?
What? I’m serious... Stop laughing...
And the nature of that cover?
Was it this one?
Or this one?

So yes, Time shares your NeverTrump urges.
Three months ago? Then they didn't even feature the assassination attempt? Whatever your political leanings, that is utterly unconscionable.
Federal laws pertaining to the appointment of the President by the State Legislatures are unconstitutional.
The 51 separate elections that take place every four years and lead to the appointment of the 538 individuals who then choose the President are not a Federal matter - deliberately so - and all commissions, laws, or rules to the contrary are void.
Preposterous lawsuit and it has zero merit since Musk also invited Kamala for her own Spaces event.
