Multiple Departments Targeting Musk,Foreign exchange dealers that allow scalping US Government's Secret Investigation
According to an exclusive report by The Wall Street Journal, from 2022 to 2023, several US government agencies conducted a secret investigation on billionaire and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk due to his frequent close interactions with foreign individuals from Eastern Europe and other countries, raising serious security concerns. Sources disclosed that the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Justice, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) were all involved in this investigation.
Although the investigation has not yet reached the stage of charges, the action itself reflects the government's sensitivity towards Musk's "circle of foreign contacts," especially considering the vast amount of sensitive government information he has access to.
National Security Concerns, SpaceX's Role Raises Doubts
Musk owns numerous companies, most notably SpaceX, which has long been collaborating with US national security agencies. He holds the highest level of secret security clearance. Because of this, his frequent interactions with foreign nationals are deemed potentially threatening to national security.
There are even rumors that SpaceX's internal legal counsel advised Musk to abandon applying for higher security clearance to avoid having to explain his complex relationships with foreigners, which could even risk having his clearance revoked.
Deep Political Ties, Super PAC Reveals “Foreign Guest Concerns”
The report also revealed that Musk, through his super political action committee (PAC) “America PAC,” donated more than $250 million to the Trump camp, becoming a significant force behind its comeback. However, insiders within the PAC revealed they had to conduct strict scrutiny of Musk's "foreign contacts" to prevent crossing the red line of foreign intervention in politics.
Several members of Trump's campaign team expressed concern about Musk frequently bringing foreigners to meetings, fearing that this could pose political and legal risks.
"Diplomatic Entrepreneur,” Musk's Close Ties with Multiple World Leaders
As the world's richest man, Musk has been in the spotlight not only in the business field but also frequently appears in international politics. According to an earlier report by The Wall Street Journal, since the end of 2022, Musk has maintained regular contact with Russian President Putin. Such "private diplomatic" actions make him a difficult variable for the US government to control.
Due to Musk's close ties with high-level officials in other countries, the US is clearly concerned about whether he might be influenced by external forces and how such influence could infiltrate national policy levels.
Trump Administration Denies Berson Involvement, Intricate Role of Musk
Interestingly, before Musk's relationship with Trump soured due to a recent "war of words," he was once one of Trump's closest economic advisers and held a special position in federal budget cuts. Despite their recent public fallout, Musk's influence within the Trump administration remains significant.
Moreover, the Trump administration has recently been warning about the risks of foreigners influencing U.S. politics and has introduced several travel and visa restriction policies, further intensifying scrutiny on Musk’s social circle.
Musk Standing at the Center of a Storm
Even though the investigation has not been officially filed, it has already created ripples in the American political and business circles. As a tech giant closely interacting with top government officials, Musk is facing an unprecedented trust crisis. Amid the increasingly complicated global political situation, whether Musk's "free-wheeling style" can continue has become a focus of attention for the US national security system.
