Tech billionaire Elon Musk on Sunday said that he will never leave the United States. “I will die in America, I’m not going in anywhere… I might go to Mars, but that will be part of America,” he said during a Wisconsin Town Hall held on Sunday.
Musk made the remarks as he gave out USD 1 million cheques to two Wisconsin voters, declaring them spokespeople for his political group, ahead of a Wisconsin Supreme Court election that the tech billionaire cast as critical to President Donald Trump's agenda and “the future of civilization.”
Taking the stage in Green Bay wearing a yellow foam cheesehead hat, Musk painted the judicial race he has pumped more than USD 20 million into as pivotal for the country.
During the townhall, Musk took a dig at George Soros, the chairman of Soros Fund Management. He discussed the death threats he has been receiving since he became the head of DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) and the two assassination attempts on Donald Trump during last year's campaign.
A unanimous court on Sunday refused to hear a last-minute attempt by the state's Democratic attorney general to stop Musk from handing over the checks to two voters, a ruling that came just minutes before the planned start of the rally.
