At the end of an X Spaces on Tuesday evening, Musk told listeners that America PAC, the super PAC that the billionaire businessman has funded with at least $119 million, will “keep going after this election.”

Musk said his super PAC was “preparing for the midterms and any intermediate elections, as well as looking at elections at the district attorney level.”

America PAC has spent more than $152 million on the presidential election, according to the latest filings. It’s also spent more than $19 million boosting GOP candidates in 18 competitive House races around the country.

The billionaire businessman said he wanted to combat the influence of George Soros, a liberal philanthropist who’s drawn the ire of conservatives, on district attorney races.

“Something has to be done to kind of counter the damage that Soros has done to the American system,” Musk said. “America PAC’s going aim to weigh in heavily on the midterms and intermediate elections, as well as just doing common sense stuff like having DAs who prosecute violent criminals who are obviously a danger to people.”

Philadelphia’s district attorney, Larry Krasner, a progressive prosecutor who received significant financial support from Soros, recently sued to block Musk’s controversial $1 million election-related giveaway. A judge ruled in Musk’s favor on Monday.

If Musk remains a major pro-GOP electoral force, Democrats could try to make him into a boogeyman along the lines of the Koch brothers before him.

Sue Altman, a Democrat running for Congress in New Jersey, tried to turn America PAC’s spending into an issue in her race.
