"Pure Evil": Musk Goes Nuclear On Talarico As George W.'s Brother Does 180

What happened: Two weeks before Election Day in Texas, Elon Musk called Democrat James Talarico "Pure Evil" on X, while Neil Bush, son of George H.W. Bush, said he voted early for Talarico over Ken Paxton. Key numbers: Musk put $158 million into the Senate Leadership Fund in September, directed to Texas PAC backing Paxton. Why it matters: The GOP establishment and the GOP's biggest donor are openly campaigning on opposite sides of the same Senate seat, and the race could decide the Senate majority.
