Musk donates $5 million to Ramaswamy despite DOGE fallout– www.washingtonexaminer.com

EXCERPT:

Elon Musk has donated $5 million to a super PAC backing Vivek Ramaswamy’s campaign for Ohio governor, despite the pair’s publicized falling out last year after Ramaswamy was initially tapped to help Musk lead President Donald Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency initiative.

The recently disclosed contribution went to V-PAC, the super PAC supporting Ramaswamy’s gubernatorial bid.

Musk’s contribution brings his political spending this election cycle to at least $90 million, making him one of the cycle’s largest donors. His biggest investment this year was in Kentucky Senate candidate Nate Morris, whose campaign ended after a Musk-backed super PAC spent roughly $10 million supporting his unsuccessful primary bid.

Despite their split last year, Musk publicly wished Ramaswamy well after he launched his gubernatorial campaign, signaling a thaw in their relationship.

“Good luck, you have my full endorsement!” Musk wrote on X.
