WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—After being handed a bruising defeat in the state’s Supreme Court election on Tuesday, Elon Musk angrily demanded that Wisconsin pay him back “in full” for the money he poured into the contest.

“I want $20 million wired into my account by end of business Wednesday,” the furious South African declared. “And I want it all in cash, none of that worthless crypto shit.”

“Until I am refunded, every voter I bribed is my employee,” he continued. “As such, I forbid you to work remotely and demand that you report to Tesla headquarters at once.”

In a final demand, Musk said he expected to be reimbursed $16.95 for the cost of his cheesehead.

What Musk is plotting now is retribution. He will make our state pay by targeting his chainsaw directly at critical services here. He will not go away quietly and we will suffer for it. I love that we took greater control in the court but it comes at great cost. We'll survive, and its all worth it in the end, but we need to be bracing ourselves.
