From the New York Post:
Shanahan, 38, told The New York Times last month she had given$ 4 million to the super PAC, American Values 2024, to fund the$ 7 million 30- second Super Bowl commercial.
While claiming to hardly be an” anti- vaxxer,” she said she shared Kennedy’s frequent attacks on vaccines. She also describes herself as a liberal who cares about children’s health.
She donated to President Biden’s campaign in 2020 and gave the greatest$ 6, 600 to Kennedy’s campaign in May 2023 while he was still seeking the Democratic nomination, according to records obtained by The Times.
The Bay Area attorney was married to Brin of Google in 2018 but they actually broke up last summer because she allegedly had romantic relationships with Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla.
According to the Wall Street Journal in 2022, Musk and Brin were previously close friends, and Musk generally stayed over at Brin’s home.
However, according to reports, the two apparently got into a scuffle after Musk and Shanahan had a brief feud in December 2021 when Brin requested that his financial advisers sell his private investments in Musk’s businesses.
