The Musk Files

Six months in, our investigation of Elon Musk uncovers the world's richest man's quest for power, and an insatiable thirst to profit from it.

When Elon Musk endorsed Donald Trump in July last year, pledging a $145 million campaign infusion, I was determined to uncover the real story of Elon Musk and who is backing him.

This single piece of evidence led us to a complex web of connections, exposing the extent of Musk’s involvement in the Kremlin’s disinformation operation.
