The only reason I can think of for this news not being absolutely everywhere is that large media orgs don’t want to be seen as putting their thumbs on the scales a week before election day. And that’s cowardly as shit.

Why is major US corporate media unwilling to press Republicans who run on Elon Musk's money about Musk's unabashed racism, his fascist ideology, and his embrace of Nazi eugenics like the Lebensborn program? Jamelle Bouie goes there.
