What BBN said about it

1. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorElon Musk gave five million dollars to Greg Abbott's campaign, according to a new filing, and he'd already given five hundred thousand before that.

2. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorFive million dollars from a friend! Sorry, I'm getting a little misty. That's the nicest thing anyone's done for a governor all week.

3. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorA Travis County judge ordered Abbott to stop blocking his opponent, Gina Hinojosa, from seeing his private messages with Musk.

4. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorAbbott's office has appealed.

5. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorHe appealed! That's loyalty. He'll go all the way up the courts to keep their messages between friends.

6. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorHinojosa says the donation means the emails must be worse than anyone knew. Abbott's office calls her lawsuit a baseless stunt.

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorWho reads someone else's messages?

8. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorA judge, so far. Texas is going to appeals court over the emails, so they must be very nice.
