'Say Hi to George for me': Elon Musk laughs at protestors who disrupted him at Wisconsin rally

Tech mogul and DOGE chief Elon Musk did not miss the opportunity to take aim at billionaire George Soros after being interrupted by a heckler at a Wisconsin rally on Sunday. While speaking at a town hall event in Green Bay, Wisconsin, on Sunday, Musk's speech was disrupted by an audience member.

The Tesla CEO responded by linking the disruption to George Soros and said, “It was inevitable that at least a few Soros operatives would be in the audience.. give my regards to George! Say Hi to George Soros for me.”

Elon Musk vs George Soros

The SpaceX CEO has been a vocal critic of George Soros and has previously accused him, Reid Hoffman and others of funding protests against his electric car company Tesla. In a post on X, the Tesla CEO had claimed that an investigation has identified five groups, purportedly funded through ActBlue - a major Democratic fundraising platform - as orchestrators of these demonstrations.

ActBlue, founded in 2004, is a key fundraising tool for Democratic candidates and causes. Musk named groups such as Troublemakers, Disruption Project, Rise & Resist, Indivisible Project, and the Democratic Socialists of America as the driving forces behind Tesla protests.

Elon Musk has also accused George Soros of having a “hatred for humanity” and claiming his influence harmed societies worldwide. Musk also denounced former president Joe Biden’s decision to award Soros the Presidential Medal of Freedom, calling it a "travesty."

Musk attends Wisconsin rally

Elon Musk attended a rally on Sunday where he gave two Wisconsin voters $1 million each for signing an online petition against "activist" judges. He’s also offering $100 to anyone who signs the petition, having previously donated $1 million to a Green Bay resident who signed. Musk announced the prize earlier this week, ahead of Wisconsin's tightly contested Supreme Court election to be held on Tuesday.

The race, which could flip control of the state's supreme court to the Republicans, has become a flash point and the most expensive judicial election in American history. Speaking at a rally Sunday night, Musk said "we just want judges to be judges", before handing out two $1m (£750,000) cheques to voters who had signed a petition to stop "activist" judges.

Speaking at the rally, Musk said, "Thank you for coming out in support. It's important for the country and the world. The Supreme Court can redraw the districts, which could result in the House shifting to a Democratic majority. If that happens, they will try to block all the reforms we are working on for you, the American people."

While Musk's groups, America PAC and Building America's Future, have spent a total of $20 million supporting the Republican candidate, Soros has contributed $1 million to the state Democratic Party for its nominee, according to Daily Mail. The race for the open Supreme Court seat is between Republican former state Attorney General Brad Schimel and Democrat Dane County Circuit Judge Susan Crawford.
