Elon Musk's Attempt To Shame Heckler At His Wisconsin Rally Backfired Big Time

During his Wisconsin rally on Sunday, Elon Musk tried to shut down a protester by invoking George Soros, but people thought it was a bit on the nose for the billionaire.

Billionaire Elon Musk was called out after he tried to shut down a protester during his Wisconsin rally on Sunday by invoking George Soros, only for people to point out that his criticisms were a bit hypocritical considering his own record of funding MAGA causes.

Soros—a billionaire philanthropist who has been the subject of countless conservative and antisemitic conspiracy theories for his support of progressive and liberal political causes—was Musk's first thought amid the ongoing Supreme Court race in Wisconsin despite the fact he is currently paying people to help sway the race.


When a heckler interrupted him, Musk giggled and said:

“It was inevitable at least a few Soros operatives would be in the audience. Give my regards to George. Say ‘hi’ to George for me.”

You can watch what happened in the video below.

The outcome of the April 1 election between liberal Dane County Judge Susan Crawford and conservative Waukesha County Judge Brad Schimel will determine the court's ideological balance.

Musk is fueling the high-stakes race; he has poured $19.3 million into supporting Schimel, according to state campaign records. That includes $3 million to the state Republican Party—$2 million of which was donated just last week. Due to state election laws, large contributions must be funneled through political parties before reaching candidates.

Beyond direct donations, Musk’s super PAC, America PAC, has spent $11.5 million on digital ads, mailers, field operations, and voter outreach. Meanwhile, his political nonprofit, Building America’s Future, has spent nearly $4.8 million on TV ads attacking Crawford.

So which billionaire is actually interfering in elections here? Hint: It's not Soros.


Musk was called out for his hypocrisy.


Just weeks ago, Musk’s support for Judge Schimel was inconsistent, but his stance on the race has since escalated dramatically.

Referring to the key role that the court could play in congressional redistricting, Musk said "whichever party controls the House to a significant degree controls the country, which then steers the course of Western civilization." He claimed the race "is one of those things that may not seem that it’s going to affect the entire destiny of humanity, but I think it will.”

Musk also gave out $1 million checks on Sunday to two Wisconsin voters, declaring them spokespeople for his political group. In a unanimous decision on Sunday, the state Supreme Court declined to hear a last-minute effort by the Democratic attorney general to block Musk from distributing the checks. The ruling came just minutes before the rally was set to begin.
