    Tech mogul Elon Musk transferred $75 million to America PAC, which he founded, according to Federal Election Commission filings. The PAC has been supporting Trump’s candidacy.

    Musk was campaigning with Trump last week, including joining him for his return to Butler, Pennsylvania. The New York Times reported Musk’s involvement in Trump’s campaign is “unparalleled in modern history.”

    The PAC, which says it supports “secure borders, safe cities, free speech, sensible spending, a fair justice system, and self-protection,” has spent $80 million so far to help Trump’s reelection efforts.
