As he promotes a conservative candidate for the state’s upcoming Supreme Court election, Elon Musk has presented $1 million checks to two Wisconsin voters.
The tech billionaire, a close ally of President Donald Trump, distributed the oversized checks at a rally in Green Bay on Sunday night, boosting the amount of money being spent in what is already the most expensive judicial race in US history.
Similar actions were made by Musk during the November presidential election. Democratic challengers in Wisconsin, a hotly contested swing state, have succeeded in attempting to stop the handout by claiming it constitutes election interference.
Brad Schimel, a conservative, and Susan Crawford, a Democratic candidate, square off in the April 1 election. The court currently has a 4-3 majority led by the liberals.
The billionaire has heavily participated in the judicial election, which is seen as a preliminary assessment of Trump’s contentious first few weeks in office. In the event that they win, he also asserts that liberals will try to use the Wisconsin court to change voting districts and have an impact on upcoming state election results.
Musk claimed that the vote was a “super big deal” in a speech on Sunday night.
He declared that the US House of Representatives will be decided on Tuesday.
Which party has the most influence over the House, which ultimately determines how the country is governed by Western civilization, he said, adding that the outcome of the vote “will have an impact on humanity’s entire destiny.”
Susan Crawford, the candidate for the Democratic Party of Wisconsin, addresses a crowd in Milwaukee on Saturday, March 29, 2025.
The Supreme Court had earlier rejected a move to stop the handouts.
Josh Kaul, the governor’s attorney general in Wisconsin, claimed in a lawsuit that the Tesla boss’s actions were against state law.
According to Kaul, “Wisconsin law prohibits offering anything of value to entice people to vote,” adding that Elon Musk did just that.
Without giving a justification for its decision, the Supreme Court declined to take the case.
Trump’s agenda
The court’s decision comes as it is anticipated to rule on congressional redistricting, union rights, and abortion rights, which could have an impact on the midterm elections of 2026 and the 2028 presidential election.
The court swings are a part of Trump’s wider plan to stop judges from stifling his ideas in the near future. The president’s controversial actions on immigration, state institutions, and foreign policy are the subject of numerous legal challenges currently being pursued.
Musk claimed that if Crawford were to win, “they would gerrymander the district, and deprive Wisconsin of two seats on the Republican side.”
Then, he added, “they will try to stop all the government reforms we are implementing for you, the American people.”
As a preventative measure against upcoming instability, more and more Americans are seeking second passports in a time of political uncertainty and growing global uncertainty.
According to citizenship and residency advisory firms such as Latitude Group and Arton Capital, demand from United States citizens for second passports or long-term residency in other countries – often through investment schemes offered by those countries – has surged dramatically in recent years. Donald Trump’s election as president of the United States appears to have rekindled that trend.
In contrast to the same time last year, Latitude said that US applications for second citizenship or residency have increased by 1, 000% since 2020, right after the COVID pandemic hit and travel restrictions were at their height. Arton reported a 400 percent increase in US clients in the first three months of 2025.
There are no official records of the number of American citizens seeking second passports.
However, according to industry estimates shared with Al Jazeera, about 4, 000 of the roughly 10, 000 global applications for second passports have been submitted by Americans seeking second citizenship in recent years. Although the overall number of applications has remained constant for many years, there have also been significant increases in the proportion of applications from US applicants since the pandemic.
What was once considered the domain of billionaires and business owners is now increasingly attracting professionals and politically concerned citizens seeking a “Plan B” – an exit route if, as they fear, they find it harder to live in the US.
The Latitude Group, which assists clients in obtaining second citizenship and residency through investment schemes, said Christopher Willis, managing partner at the company, “It’s better to have it than to not need it.”
What exactly are investment-based passports?
These programmes, often called “golden visas” or “citizenship-by-investment” schemes, allow individuals to obtain long-term residency or even citizenship in exchange for a financial contribution – usually via real estate investment, a donation to a national development fund or the purchase of government bonds.
Investment requirements range from as little as 10,000 euros ($10,000) to more than one million euros ($1.2 million) depending on the program and location.
Although some programs offer the right to permanent residency, not all of them will automatically lead to full citizenship or a passport.
Residency-by-investment schemes, such as Portugal’s Golden Visa or Greece’s equivalent scheme, offer long-term residence and the right to freedom of travel within the EU’s Schengen Zone but do not grant citizenship immediately. The program does, however, offer a five-year path to citizenship in Portugal with no minimum residency requirements, with an average of 14 days each two years.
In as little as 16 months, citizenship-by-investment schemes, offered by Malta and a number of Caribbean nations, can result in full passports.
According to Latitude, 50 percent of its US clients now choose Portugal’s Golden Visa as their top pick, followed by Malta (25 percent) and Caribbean nations (15 percent). About 80% of those clients claim to have no immediate plans for relocation and simply want to feel secure knowing they can relocate.
Most nations that grant citizenship have the option to give it to the next and the grandchildren.
Who is applying for second passports?
Beyond just billionaires and wealthy business owners, second passports are now sought from a much wider range of society.
People who are concerned about what they perceive as authoritarian trends in US governance are among David Lesperance’s international tax and immigration clients, who are located in Poland.
“I’ve never been busier”, he told Al Jazeera, adding that people who have never thought about leaving the US before are suddenly thinking “very seriously” about it.
The number of what she calls “Armageddon Americans,” or “Armageddon Americans,” has increased, according to Professor Kristin Surak, a political sociologist at the London School of Economics and author of The Golden Passport.
Americans, in addition to China and India, are now Latitude’s top three clientele, according to Willis. Arton Capital also confirmed a sharp uptick from US nationals – including both high-net-worth individuals and professionals who are anxious about the current political climate.
What are the main arguments for second passports?
Numerous organizations are concerned about Donald Trump’s re-election to the US presidency in 2025, along with a number of executive orders aimed at civil liberties, immigration protections, and minority rights.
“I got nine applicants in seven days after one of those orders”, Lesperance said, citing a wave of fear among LGBTQ clients in particular following an executive order related to “gender ideology”, recognising male and female as the only two sexes, and reversing several protections for transgender people.
Some people worry about being included on political watchlists created by Trump’s nominee for FBI chief, Kash Patel, Lesperance says.
Others say they are becoming more vulnerable as a result of the Trump administration’s plan to deport several students who are involved in pro-Palestine activities on US campuses and infiltrate their communities, such as those who supported the student-led pro-Palestine protests from last year.
Lesperance also points to the rise in the frequency of natural disasters such as the recent California wildfires, mass shootings and deepening ideological divides as additional drivers of anxiety.
He claimed that “the US is turning into a wildfire zone.” “An increase in racism, in addition to mass shootings. And if you’re politically active, it means half the country doesn’t like you”, Lesperance added.
Second citizenship is a financial choice for some families. Some people opt for passport-free real estate investments in Caribbean countries like Grenada, Antigua and Barbuda, which can be completed in as little as six months.
One of Latitude’s clients opted to invest $300, 000 in property in Antigua and Barbuda instead of purchasing a vacation home in Florida, gaining a second passport in the process.
Another benefit is the appeal of global mobility. CEO of Arton Capital Armand Arton claimed that his clients frequently combine “bundle” residencies. For instance, pairing a UAE Golden Visa with a European one to ensure broader travel access.
People typically need to invest about $545,000 in the UAE by depositing money into an approved financial institution or purchasing real estate.
Taxation is another important factor for some wealthy people.
The US is one of the only countries in the world that taxes its citizens and permanent residents – also known as green card holders – on their worldwide earnings, regardless of where they are living. Due to this system, known as citizenship-based taxation, Americans who live abroad are required to file US tax returns and may be subject to taxes on their global income.
Some wealthy Americans have begun to reconsider their citizenship and those with green cards have to give up their residence status as a result of this system.
While it remains rare for people to take that step, it’s becoming a serious consideration for some clients.
Lesperance noted that “I have had a number of clients do this over the past ten.” He cited economic, political, and social uncertainty as the reason for “we still think there will be a significant increase in the number of citizens who are refusing to live.”
Arton, whose clients are mainly high-net-worth individuals, noted that even before the 2024 US election, 53 percent of American millionaires were actively exploring options abroad.
Are more Americans pursuing citizenship through descent?
Yes . US applications for citizenship by descent – often a more affordable path – have also surged by 500 percent since 2023, with 80 percent targeting Italian ancestry, according to firms facilitating the process.
Although this route is relatively new in the sector, Willis praised how “growing so quickly” it is, especially since it doesn’t require any upfront money.
In nations where they have ancestry, individuals can reclaim citizenship through these applications. Italy, for instance, allows people to apply if they can prove descent from an Italian citizen, often going back several generations, provided the ancestor did not renounce their own Italian citizenship before their child’s birth.
Similar laws apply to Germany, Poland, and Ireland.
Each nation has its own regulations; for example, Ireland typically allows applicants to go back up three generations while Italy doesn’t have a cap on the amount of time you can reapply for citizenship.
Unlike some investment-based programmes, these citizenships can often be taken up by descendants fairly easily, making them an attractive option for families who can prove descent. Typically, applicants must submit birth certificates, marriage certificates, and other evidence, such as a family tree.
Will there be an increase in second passport demand?
Most experts believe the trend is far from peaking.
According to Willis, “Americans are future-proofing their lives.” In order to obtain a second citizenship, clients are selling assets, restructuring their finances, and making “bold lifestyle choices.”
Kulim, Malaysia – When tech giant AT&, S made the decision to increase production a few years ago to keep up with the growth of artificial intelligence (AI)), it did not look to China for its largest manufacturing facilities.
The Austrian firm’s plants in Chongqing and Shanghai – opened in 2022 and 2016, respectively – employ some 9, 000 workers between them, churning out high-end components used in everything from consumer electronics to cars.
However, AT&S was also learning about the potential benefits of concentrating production in one nation.
Like many tech firms grappling with the disruption of the COVID-19 pandemic and the trade war salvoes between the United States and China, AT&, S decided it needed to diversify its supply chains.
Malaysia quickly risen to the top of the list of potential locations for the business’s newest plant.
A little more than two years after breaking ground, AT&, S opened its newest production facility in Kulim, in Malaysia’s Kedah state, in January 2024.
On February 25, 2025, John Power/Al Jazeera visited AT&, S’s production facility in Kulim Hi-Tech Park, Malaysia.
The plant, AT&, S’s first in Southeast Asia, produces substrates – critical components that act as an intermediary layer between the chips and circuit boards used in AI systems and other advanced electronics.
The 1,7 billion euro ($1,8 billion) facility, AT&’s largest investment ever, will have about 6, 000 workers working there when it will be operational when it is at its peak.
“It’s part of the China Plus One strategy”, Suan See Yap, AT&, S senior vice president and managing director, told Al Jazeera, referring to the efforts of many companies to diversify production outside China.
According to Yap, “the need for more capacity and also having a footprint outside China drives the choice.”
AT&, S’s Malaysian facility is located at Kulim Hi-Tech Park, an industrial park which is a stone’s throw away from the neighbouring state of Penang, home to a free-trade zone that earned the moniker “Silicon Valley of the East” after emerging as a semiconductor hub during the 1970s.
The US company AMD, one of the main buyers of AT&, S’s substrates, is one of the chip manufacturers with a manufacturing base in Penang.
“Our customers are located here, so it’s a very strategic location, and there are 4, 000 SMEs around this area as well”, Yap said, referring to small and medium enterprises.
The supply chain is thus very well supported.
Malaysia’s geopolitical position also factored into the company’s thinking.
Our government tries to be impartial, and Yap remarked, “We want to be friends with all the nations.”
“This is a personal view, but I think we want to become the United Nations of semiconductors. We want to operate in a world where politics and, you know, geopolitical influences are exempt.

Numerous tech companies are betting on Malaysia, drawn from a variety of factors, including the country’s strategic location, established chip industry, well-developed infrastructure, and neutral stance in the Washington-Beijing conflict.
After grappling with political instability and corruption scandals in recent years, Malaysia hopes that positioning itself as a leading AI hub will transform its economy, cementing its rise from middle-income to developed status.
Anwar Ibrahim, the Malaysian prime minister, has emphasized the need to embrace every aspect of the AI economy, starting with the manufacturing of chips and setting up the data centers for training and operating models like ChatGPT.
Anwar, 77, has placed particular emphasis on the potential of AI to raise labour productivity and wages for workers, nearly one-third of whom earn less than 2, 000 ringgit ($450) a month.
Anwar Ibrahim, the prime minister of Malaysia, addresses the Turkiye-Malaysia Business Forum on February 11, 2025 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Among other initiatives, the veteran opposition figure-turned-leader has overseen the launch of an ambitious national semiconductor strategy and a dedicated AI office.
Additionally, he has made investment from abroad a top priority.
Since taking office as the head of a multi-party unity government in 2022, Anwar has visited more than 30 countries to court investors and promote the country.
He has repeatedly stated at home and abroad that Malaysia intends to remain “fervently neutral” and does not want to take sides in the US-China conflict.
Last year, Malaysia approved $38.5bn in foreign investment, a 15 percent rise from the previous year’s amount and the biggest haul on record.
The wider economy, which has grown steadily since the COVID-19 pandemic ended, appears to be already seeing the benefits of the influx.
Gross domestic product (GDP) expanded by 5.1 percent in 2024, outpacing regional peers such as Thailand and Indonesia.
The World Bank projects that Malaysia could surpass its 2030 goal by achieving its goal of becoming a high-income nation by 2030. Malaysia’s GNI per capita stood at $11, 710 in 2023, the most recent year for which data is available, putting it roughly on par with Turkiye and Mexico.
Plans by Amazon, Google, ByteDance, and Microsoft to set up a number of new data centers in the nation have contributed a significant portion of the foreign investment windfall.

Once finished, the facilities are expected to support AI and cloud services used for everything from medical services to ride-hailing to online banking, as well as complying with local laws requiring the storage of sensitive data held by government agencies within the nation.
Microsoft, which plans to launch three data centres in greater Kuala Lumpur this year, has estimated that its facilities alone will generate some $10.9bn in new revenues and more than 37, 500 jobs over the next four years.
At the Microsoft office in Kuala Lumpur, Andrew Lau, director of strategic programs for Microsoft in Malaysia, stated to Al Jazeera that “part of our mission is to ensure we increase the adoption of AI as quickly as possible through Microsoft Cloud.”
“Especially here in Malaysia, because the networking is very strong – in the sense that we have good cables, we have good 5G as well – the capability to deliver the computate power to the public and to every person is a lot faster”, Lau said.
Which means that there will be a rapid adoption of AI in Malaysia using the cloud, he added.
“In fact, we’re seeing that already… 84 percent of Malaysians are actually bringing AI to work already”.
Upscaling Malaysia’s long-established chip industry is a crucial component of its strategy to ride the AI boom.
While Malaysia already ranks as the world’s sixth-largest semiconductor exporter, playing host to major players such as Intel, Infineon, GlobalFoundries, the local industry has been largely focused on “backend” services, such as chip assembly, packaging and testing.
Taiwan, South Korea, and the US have dominated both high-end manufacturing and design, making it more difficult and lucrative.
Under the National Semiconductor Strategy unveiled last year, Anwar’s government has allocated more than 25 billion ringgit ($5.6bn) to invest in high-value-added front-end activities over the next decade.
From establishing at least 10 Malaysian firms with a focus on design and advanced packaging that generate revenues of 1 billion to 4 billion ringgit (roughly $225 million to $1 billion), to training 60, 000 highly skilled engineers, the blueprint includes a set of ambitious goals for moving up the value chain.

Officials earlier this month revealed a first-of-its-kind partnership with Arm, a United Kingdom-based chip maker owned by Japan’s SoftBank, in an announcement that the government has hailed as a crucial step toward Malaysia becoming a hub for advanced production.
Under the agreement, Malaysia will pay the firm $250m over a decade to share its semiconductor-related licences, technology and know-how.
“Through this comprehensive partnership with Arm, we have developed one of the most ambitious technological plans Malaysia has ever seen to pioneer “made by Malaysia’s AI chips,” Anwar said at the start of the partnership.
“These chips will be designed, manufactured, tested and assembled here, and sold to the rest of the world”.
Industry figures believe Malaysia has a lot of potential to expand on its traditional strengths, even though it ultimately wants to enter the world of high-end manufacturing.
Malaysia is particularly well positioned to take advantage of the growing importance of advanced packaging, which involves the integration of multiple chips into a single casing for greater performance and functionality, said David Lacey, the president of the Free Industrial Zone, Penang Companies ‘ Association.
Multiple chips being packaged together could potentially have a similar functionality, Lacey said, making them more readily available for consumption in products like electric cars and health watches.
“So, the value-add of the packaging, or the value-proportion of the packaging, is rising up. According to Lacey, who is currently Osram Opto Semiconductors’ director of research and innovation, “it’s going from 10% to 30% or 40% of the value-add.”
“The balance of power, the product definition, is moving towards a package”, Lacey said.
Malaysia is also well-positioned to take advantage of this, again. So, you’ve got 50 years of packaging experience. And as a result, the electronics supply chain becomes significantly more valuable.

Yet, government officials and industry figures are acutely aware of the dangers looming ahead.
While the US-China rivalry benefitted Malaysia by spurring firms to diversify their supply chains, protectionist winds are now casting uncertainty over its tech ambitions.
Following an earlier pledge to impose duties of “25 percent or higher” on the chips, US President Donald Trump announced last week that tariffs on semiconductors would be “down the road.”
Trump, who has made a flurry of back-and-forth announcements on tariffs since entering office in January, did not specify a timeframe for the measures or whether certain countries or sectors could be excluded.
Many businesses are in wait-and-see mode when making investment decisions in Malaysia, according to Loo Lee Lian, the chief executive officer of Invest Penang, a state-owned nonprofit for investment promotion, Loo Lee Lian, said.
“So everybody is… holding on tight. In the upcoming six months, a lot will happen, Loo predicted.
“Nobody is making any decisions”.
Industry figures also face challenges, not the least of which is the difficulty of finding talent.
In a 2022 survey conducted by the Malaysia Semiconductor Industry Association, 47 percent of businesses identified the availability of talent as a major constraint to their operations.
Making up the shortfall will take some time, despite the government’s plans to train tens of thousands of engineers over the coming years.
Malaysian Minister of Investment, Trade and Industry Tengku Zafrul Aziz has noted that although the local industry needs about 50, 000 skilled engineers, local universities are only producing about 5, 000 engineering graduates annually.
As a possible solution to the shortfall, Aziz’s ministry has suggested allowing foreign graduates from nearby universities to work for a short while in the neighborhood tech scene. The proposal has received opposition from unions and has not so far been implemented.

After seeing a decline in company revenues of 13% in 2023-24 as a result of an industry-wide decline in demand, AT&, S ‘Yap anticipates business to be “flattish” this year.
But looking further ahead, the Leoben-based company’s outlook is bullish.
In 2026-2027, revenue is expected to reach 2.1 to 2.4 billion euros ($2.3 billion-$2.6 billion), which is higher than the record-setting 1.8 billion euro ($2 billion) of 2022-2023.
After leading racer Marc Marquez crashed for the first time this season, Ducati’s Francesco Bagnaia won the chaotic Americas Grand Prix ahead of Alex Marquez from Gresini Racing.
Marquez had won the weekend’s qualifying race and a third straight sprint victory, but the six-time MotoGP champion decided to retire in the wake of extensive damage to his bike in Sunday’s main race.
Alex Marquez will leave Austin with the bigger smile as he moves up to the top of the MotoGP riders’ championship with 87 points, one point ahead of his older brother Marc, who is 75 points ahead of Bagnaia.
As Alex was unable to catch up with Fabio Di Giannantonio, who finished third, Ducati did it again clean sweep of the podium.
“I’m so happy, I’m already without my voice.” After eating a celebratory hot dog in the paddock, Bagnaia yelled out loud.
What a relief to return to the top of the podium after such a challenging period.
When the sun briefly came out, there was chaos even before the race started, and riders who had previously chosen to use wet tires hurriedly returned to pits to switch bikes before choosing slicks on a drying track, which caused a red flag.
When the 19-lap race finally arrived, Marc Marquez had a flawless launch off the line, leading both his brother and Bagnaia before peeled away and took over the lead by more than a second at the end of the first lap.
Bagnaia had previously finished second to the Marquez brothers in previous races and sprints, and the Italian was determined to finish higher by using Alex’s slipstream to overtake the Gresini rider and place second on lap four.
The MotoGP Americas Grand Prix, held on March 30, 2025 in Austin, Texas, US, is a spectacle for Francesco Bagnaia of Italy and the Ducati Lenovo Team.
Marquez crashes
Marc Marquez appeared to be in command of the race lap record, but on lap nine, the Spaniard abruptly slammed off the track, putting his hopes on a record-extending eighth victory at the Circuit of the Americas in ruins.
As the race progressed, Bagnaia’s eyes lit up behind him, and the double world champion took advantage of the opportunity to close the gap on his championship teammate, extending his lead over Alex.
After less than five laps, Marc gave up and put his bike back in the pits to retire. He attempted to ride on without a foot peg and a screen.
Alex finished second for a third straight race, but Bagnaia eventually took the lead by two seconds over him.
“We are currently in command of the championship,” the leader says. Being Mr. Seconds also pays off, Alex chuckled. We are Mr. Seconds.
It marked Di Giannantonio’s first podium appearance since 2023 in Qatar, the location of the upcoming round.
The Italian said, “I’m just speechless, tired, and I need about 200 beers this night to recover.”
“For sure, Marc gave us a small gift. But that’s racing, really?
The top five were topped by his teammate Jack Miller and Franco Morbidelli from Pramac Racing.

Novak Djokovic, a Czech teenager, won the Miami Open at Hard Rock Stadium in straight sets 7-6 (7/4), 7-6 (7/4), both decided by tiebreaks, 7-6 (7/4).
Djokovic’s 100th professional title was denied by the 19-year-old, who is 54th overall in the world.
Djokovic, 37, was hoping to become the only men with 100 or more career titles, including Jimmy Connors and Roger Federer, but he was unable to match the teenager’s quickness and creative play.
Due to heavy rain, the Sunday final was delayed by almost six hours, and it was obvious that Djokovic had an eye infection when the players arrived.
Mensik made a strong first-serve start, breaking Djokovic’s lead of 2-0. The tall, big-serving Czech held the lead until Mensik found the net to break Djokovic’s lead at 4-2.
From that point on, the set was still in play, but Mensik’s powerful serve, with two aces, immediately took the lead in the tie-break. Although Djokovic fought back, he gave up the set with an overhead volley, sealing it with him.
Djokovic lost his first set of the tournament overall.
No one was able to break during the second set, which was a nip-and-tuck affair.
Mensik’s strength once more proved decisive in the tie-break, and when Djokovic slammed for a return to win, he fell to his back.

One for all time
The 37-year-old Djokovic and Mensik matchup marked the biggest age difference since 1976 and the biggest age difference in a Masters 1000 final. Mensik was competing in his first ATP 1000 final. When Djokovic won his first Miami Open title in 2007, he was just two years old.
The only time they have met on court was at the Shanghai Masters in October, when Mensik defeated Djokovic in straight sets.
Novak Djokovic is my tennis inspiration. I started playing tennis because of him. He’s my “biggest idol,” Mensik said last year in an interview with the ATP Tour.
In his distinguished career, Djokovic won 99 of the 307 ATP Tour-level competitions. The Serbian has won a men’s record 24 of his 76 Grand Slams.
