Elon Musk's $1 Million Giveaway Faces Legal Battle

A federal judge has ruled that the legal dispute surrounding Elon Musk's $1 million daily voter giveaway will return to a Philadelphia court, rejecting Musk's attempt to keep the case in federal jurisdiction. Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner accuses Musk of running an illegal lottery scheme targeting voters in battleground states to influence the upcoming election, while Musk's lawyers argue that the lawsuit infringes on political speech protected by the First Amendment. Musk's super PAC, America PAC, has awarded over $14 million to voters who support constitutional rights, with ongoing giveaways scheduled until November 5. The legal battle has drawn criticism, with some claiming Krasner should focus on local crime issues instead of pursuing Musk. As the election approaches, the case's resolution may come too late to affect the giveaway program significantly. A state judge has temporarily paused proceedings while the federal court considers the issue, allowing Musk to continue the giveaways for now.
