"Elon Musk said he was going to donate to Rep. Thomas Massie in July. As of the end of September, it hasn't happened yet. The Kentucky Republican's campaign filed its latest quarterly report with the Federal Election Commission on Wednesday, and Musk's name appears nowhere among the various campaign donors listed in the document. The report covers all of the Massie campaign's donations and spending from the beginning of July through the end of September."
"Massie's reelection in Kentucky has been shaping up as something of a proxy battle between Musk and President Donald Trump. Trump has made clear that he would like to see Massie defeated in a primary next year. His political allies have begun running ads against the Kentucky congressman after he voted against the passage of Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill," citing the bill's impact on the debt. Musk opposed the megabill for the same reason, which helped spur his feud with Trump months ago."
Elon Musk publicly indicated in July that he would donate to Rep. Thomas Massie, yet Massie's latest FEC quarterly report through the end of September lists no contribution from Musk. The report covers all donations and spending from early July through September. Neither Musk nor Massie's campaign responded to requests for comment. There is no evidence Musk has withdrawn personal support, and future financial assistance remains possible. Massie's reelection has become a proxy conflict between Musk and President Donald Trump after Massie voted against the "Big Beautiful Bill" and Musk opposed the megabill on debt grounds.
