Naah, the guy known for lying was lying. Billionaires don't go to jail, specially for taking handouts to do something and then not doing it.
He also got the head of the FAA to quit because they were investigating IFT 7 showering debris all over the Caribbean.

... and Elon really didn't appreciate all the other FAA investigations into SpaceX, over the last 5 yeara or so.

Archive this before Musk has it deleted.
The closure of the mishap investigation does not signal an immediate resumption of Starship launches at Boca Chica. SpaceX must implement all corrective actions that impact public safety and apply for and receive a license modification from the FAA that addresses all safety, environmental and other applicable regulatory requirements prior to the next Starship launch.
Archive this too:

SpaceX's IFT launches getting FAA approval has been a major thorn in Elon's side, for years now, and Elon has more than once just lied about things and launched beyond his actual legal ability to do so.

Musk has been flagrantly violating the law in numerous different ways relating to the Boca Chica facility, and Starship/IFT launches... pretty much for every IFT launch.
So, he's now just making that all go away.
Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives
President Musk and First Buddy Trump are almost the same!
Why is USAID investigating Starlink?
Because Starlink took money from them and then used their satellites to help Americas enemy.
I guess because they took govt money and possibly didn't deliver?
Is USAID investigating Juan Guaidó? They gave him 50 million and bro underdelivered, to say the least
It's harder to prosecute non-Americans I guess.
I said it before:
I laughed at the ball of worms. He's talking as if he did a deep technical analysis over the past *cough* 1 day to come to this logical unbiased conclusion. The man was on a mission without regard to anything to burn it down since who knows when.
Perhaps I'm misreading your comment, but how was that funny?
I'm laughing at musk because he's dumb and lying.
The OOP needs understand that there's a "too". To serve himself too.
For Ukrainians, Starlink satellites are just a waste of space
Especially since they can be disconnected from the network at Nazielon's will.
I'm not sure this is true. From what I recall, the investigation was how Ukraine was using starlink terminals that the US had paid for.
