'Pulling an Alvin Bragg': Left-wing DA's 'flimsy' suit against Elon Musk's $1M giveaway slammed by expert
Fox News
Left-wing Philadelphia DA Larry Krasner sued Elon Musk and his America PAC for ostensibly violating Pennsylvania's lottery system, which legal expert Cully Stimson said was "flimsy."
Stimson compared the suit to Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg charging former President Trump with 34 counts of falsifying business records, which prosecutors linked during the spring 2024 trial to an election scheme to illegally influence the 2016 election. Trump was found guilty in the case, and has since maintained his innocence as legal experts rallied that the case was an "absolute joke" and "witch hunt" against the 45th president.
Krasner filed a lawsuit Monday against Musk and his super PAC, the America PAC, for "running an illegal lottery in Philadelphia" and across the state.
Musk announced earlier this month that voters in battleground states, such as Pennsylvania or Michigan, were eligible for a $1 million a day giveaway after signing the America PAC’s petition backing the Constitution. Musk endorsed Trump in July, and recently joined him on the campaign trail to rally support for his re-election bid, most notably in the key battleground state of Pennsylvania.
