A post-election "party" protest outside Elon Musk's home near Austin was organized by three left-wing nonprofits with combined annual revenue of $56.1 million, Fox News Digital reported Sunday.
According to Fox News, participants arrived Saturday in West Lake Hills, Texas, aboard two chartered party buses, with loud music, speeches and Cybertruck piñatas. The event was billed as a "People Over Billionaires Election After Party." About 60 people attended, by estimates cited in the report.
Fox News identified the organizers as VOCAL-TX, a project fiscally sponsored by New York's VOCAL-NY; the Brooklyn-based Center for Popular Democracy; and Chicago-based People's Action. Their latest tax filings show 2024 revenue of $40.9 million for the Center for Popular Democracy, $13.1 million for VOCAL-NY and $2.1 million for People's Action Institute, according to the report. Fox News noted the groups are separate entities and the figures are not a shared budget.
The same groups helped lead last year's "Tesla Takedown" protests, Fox News reported. The organizers did not respond to Fox News Digital's requests for comment, but have said in the past that their local protests are organic.
