Elon Musk said a filing with the U.S. Federal Election Commission that purported to establish an "America Party" affiliated with him is fraudulent. In a post on his social-media platform, the Tesla and SpaceX chief executive wrote, “This filing is false and has been reported as such to the FEC.” The clarification follows online circulation of documents suggesting Musk was forming a new political organization. Musk did not disclose who he believes is responsible for the filing or whether he intends to pursue additional legal action beyond notifying the FEC.
