This was all it was about the whole time. The executive branch has been outright bought so Musk can avoid consequences for his businesses' questionable-at-best ethics.

Just wait until NASA issues another contract to SpaceX so they can blow up another $5 billion in taxpayer dollars
The only good Nazi is a dead Nazi.
What is your count?
Not enough
Seems like "drain the swamp" turned into "put the swamp monster in charge, give it steroids and flood the forest"
I hope he dies soon
I hope he gets it live on TV

In a fire.
He drives a Tesla so it's a real possibility
I regret that I have but one upvote to give.
There it is. I knew there was a reason
This is just one of many reasons, for example
The FAA head pushed out by Musk before all the planes started crashing had fairly recently fined spaceX for safety issues.
It's just pettiness and entitlement. He's going after everyone who has ever said no to him.
I could have sworn at least 3 of the companies he pretends to run were under investigation by different agencies.
This, starlink regarding Russia invading Ukraine, and I'm gonna guess spacex regarding government contracts? Idk about that 3rd one being investigated but it's definitely one of the many conflicts of interest.
tesla has been investigated, as well.. so tesla, neuralink, boring, spacex and starlink.. old spice himself, x(sh)itter would be, his current government work would be...
so pretty much every fucking thing that elon musk has paw prints on is investigated or would be.

Maybe Independence was a bad idea
Musk is a walking conflict of interest pos. So he just fires all the people that have a conflict with his agenda? The United States is fucked under this leadership.
bELONg in jail
Isn’t that the place where fElons go?
No, some of them become president.
Too easy for the rich to get out. Bring out the guillotines.
These fucking cunts
So? Elon Musk illegally FIRING Government Employees investigating his businesses is NOTHING compared to HUNTER BIDEN getting a JOB in CHYNA!
This shit is so fucking Russian. Blatantly corrupt.
With Russian shit you wouldn't hear of this, and the investigators wouldn't be very willing to do anything in the first place.
That you even hear about this is a sign of resilience of your system.
Like a canary that's dying, that is.
Seems to me that the USA is quite close to having journalists / whistleblowers dying by suicide…
So close that it has happened multiple times.

Nope. No conflict of interest there at all. ..
This is one of the fun little horrors I’ve been contemplating recently. Wonder what kind of completely unhinged neuralink human trials will be happening this year?
musk shagged(surrogate) the head of the neuralink division in texas a and M and made her produce a child for him. he and the university performed unsanctioned experiments on MONKEYs causing them to suffer, and musk's response"they were going to die any ways".
when you are in a university performing research on animals, theres regulations and protocols to follow, they probably dint do that. this makes the university look bad for doing this.
which university?
I can see trials going on at Gitmo in a year
I think that this company needs to be burned to the ground.
We gotta get the dems back in power so they can prosecute elmo!!!
(yeah right lol.)

Awwww, how convenient. An illegal immigrant doesn't want to be investigated.
Surprising it took this long
