If Donald Trump’s administration really wants to find evidence of foreign interference in Georgia’s elections, then they need look no further than the president’s old friend Elon Musk and his shady super PAC.

Members of the Georgia State Elections Board voted Wednesday to issue a formal letter of reprimand to Musk’s America PAC over the billionaire technocrat’s illegal scheme to get Trump elected. Georgia, a key battleground state in 2024, was the target of aggressive campaigning by Trump’s team.

Because there isn't one. The PAC wasn't sending out ballots, real or fake - it was sending absentee ballot applications that were partially refilled with the applicants' information. Presumably their name and address at least, since how else could they mail it.

No wonder they only got a letter of reprimand. This is truly making a mountain out of a molehill.

Fuck them and fuck Musk, but the outrage for this is ridiculous.
