Musk doubles down on third party threat with Independence Day poll
- On Independence Day 2025, Elon Musk revealed his intention to establish a new third political party called the America Party, contingent on Congress passing the substantial budget legislation proposed by President Donald Trump.
- Musk criticized the legislation for increasing the deficit by $3.4 trillion and broke with Trump over it, triggering renewed tensions with Steve Bannon.
- The America Party plans to concentrate efforts on a small number of U.S. Senate contests and several House races to influence closely divided legislatures, though establishing ballot presence across all states remains a significant obstacle.
- Bannon called Musk a 'buffoon' for the idea, questioned Musk's U.S. citizenship despite Musk being naturalized in 2002, and reiterated calls for Musk's deportation on his podcast.
- The Libertarian Party cautioned against the formation of a new political party, although it has indicated a willingness to potentially collaborate with Musk's initiative.
