Sherrill bashes Musk after raking in thousands of dollars in SpaceX campaign contributions

Democrat gubernatorial hopeful Mikie Sherrill is devoting more energy attacking Elon Musk than sharing her novel ideas for New Jersey.

“Make no mistake: Elon Musk is trying to break Social Security as a first step to cutting it,” Sherrill tweeted on Tuesday. “Seniors have worked hard and paid into Social Security their entire lives. My team and I have worked with so many seniors who’ve needed extra help with their benefits — and slashing phone support will make seniors’ lives even harder. We’re not going to let the world’s richest man shake down NJ seniors — just to get another tax break.”

What Sherrill (a famous phony) left out of her latest X rant is that she’s been a receipient of a significant sum of SpaceX cash over the past six years.

Here’s what we found on Open Secrets:

2024 – $10,000

2022 – $7,500

2020 – $6,500 (+ $1,000 from an individual(s))

One of her primary rival (Steve Sweeney, a senior lieutenant of the Norcross Machine) took to X in an attempt to capitalize on his rival’s hypocrisy:

Is Sherrill the least authentic politician on the planet?

She’s certainly in the top 10, and that’s a helluva list, Save Jerseyans…
