Federal authorities are investigating Elon Musk in connection with his $44 billion acquisition of Twitter, the social media platform said in a court filing

It is not clear which agencies may be conducting the probe, and Twitter did not identify what specific conduct by Musk US officials may be investigating. But the company’s court filing accused Musk’s legal team of failing to produce draft communications with the Securities and Exchange Commission and a slide presentation to the Federal Trade Commission.

In response to Twitter’s Thursday filing, Alex Spiro, Musk’s attorney, said it was designed to distract from Twitter’s own legal problems, which arose after the company’s former head of security, Peiter “Mudge” Zatko, accused Twitter of long-ignored security vulnerabilities in a whistleblower disclosure. “Twitter’s executives are under federal investigation,” Spiro said in a statement to CNN.

Fake news !!!

Why are they troubling the guy?

In USA everybody has freedom of speech, the problem come when you said something classified, no more than a conditional freedom, and my friends are always dancing everywhere less Rusia and China. now the alarm is if the AI can scan your mind through the phone, we got no privacy.

Nice

The devil knows his war is lost. All he has left is to bring down as many as he can until the end. Be strong, defend our Christian values. We won already and God is in our side. Don’t be intimidated by the perverted that govern us. Be patient and loving. LETS GET OUR COUNTRY BACK

Investigate this asshole right into prison. Thank you.

They are trying to slow it down; looks like to me...

Biden and other Democrats should pull back from the precipice of nuclear conflict. Please show statesmanship, and not one upmanship. Please make history remember you well, and not with regret. 🙏🏽

My dream is this. He buys this twitter, he pays all those billions and then twitter become so pro Russia and China so that the US shuts it down. This pigeon elon is so pro Russia or China.

Is this another weaponized left-wing government attempt to destroy a perceived non-leftist?

Lol

Yeah. They all work together. The corruption is stunning. Twitter is an arm of the regime

Another trumper trying to hide stuff who REALLY CARES

He should be investigated for taking US government money then not doing what he’s was paid to do because Putin told him not to.

Behold his connections to China and Russia to obtain Twitter... No wonder why he suspended Starlink services for Ukraine...

🤔perhaps

Don't they do this as a normal course of action in significantly large transactions?

I wish u would just stick to sciences and building interesting companies rather than getting involved in areas that are beneath you.

KHShan Good. That narcissist needs to face accountability.

Good the guy is a pr1ck!

(conduct?) No specifics lol if I had to give the government a fishing tip don't put lead weights in fish it's sort of a thing right now 😀

Oh so Twitter lies about its Daily user counts. Has lawsuits whistleblower complaints and instead of investigating their fraudulent business practices the investigate musk. Anyone can see whats going on. Democratic Party Targetting.

What is there to investigate?

CNN is Worse than the Dang Democrats there All Corrupt!

Not supprised! What about kroger ( smiths, food for less) buying albertsons (vons,albertsons) ? Or how about letting inbev buy coors, miller, bud so all our beer companies are in a monopoly!

So this is how the left safeguards election theft?

I hope you get the money you want from Ukraine to use your internet, but don't forget we'll see each other in hell Sir 😈

Great to here things like this

Fed’s are afraid of free speech.

They will do anything to keep control.

Feds investigating = The DNC controlled DC bureaucracy abusing its power.

Ha ha

Of course they are. Anyone who dares to dismantle the Democratic Party hold on Big Tech and information must be destroyed. Carry on, CNN comrades!

Need to investigate him for starlinks also!

PLEASE A MAN: This 'RICH AND POWERFUL ' IS above the law. They may try to bend him, but believe me they won't BREAK HIM. $$🚀👽

The woke federal government is in danger of losing control over the narrative and they will stop at nothing to retain that control.

Another phony DOJ attempt to destroy freedom of speech in America,

Just lawyers looking for billable hours from some suckers.

To stop a charging bull you'll do anything let's be right, hair splitters 😕

NATO shame as KPK_RI jokowi

lookner Let's see, he now wants the Gov't to start paying for Starlink in Ukraine so they decide to go after him. Nothing to see here folks.

Again? Or is this the same thing just brought up again to make it look new? Media clowns

DO NOT VOTE DEMOCRAT

StopHazaraGeoncide

See what happens in a not so free America that an entrepreneur like musk rocks the boat and now finds himself under scrutiny by the feds.

I'm really sick of this guy and this crap with Twitter. Either just buy the bullshit or go away.

Elon was wrong for providing starlink in the first face .. these people going after him for helping out mad

FAKE NEWS

Again more proof of a liberal agenda used to intimidate private citizens. Half the country is asleep and sacrifices civil liberties.

He could trade his perfume company for twitter... I believe twitter would even profit...

Bahahahaha HA… HA!!

The government needs to chill a little. Without Tesla, this administration has very little chance of meeting it’s climate goals in transportation. Twitter employees are trying to tank the deal by being a distraction.

这家伙。拥有黑头发火星人。

So he sold Russia a stockpile of nuclear warheads and they're going after him for twitter? Wtf?

Therefore, how is there any manipulation if he purchases it at the original price?

A person who clearly creates a social monopoly. - worldwide space network - buys the most popular social network ... And under this, not against dictatorship.

Boycott Musk boycottMusk

Alright

It is because he is buddy with Putin.

Old news. A Twitter distraction from their own skeletons.

And of course here come the Biden bullies!! This administration is attacking ANYONE who even dares to ask questions and demand they be held accountable. They are communists to the core!

Please just buy this god forsaken app so we can even the playing field!!! Twitter is still filled with liberal idealouges trying to change every way of American life. They must be stopped!

What 4

lookner

lookner I believe he's also being sued for manipulating and profiting from crypto Dogecoin

lookner Antitrust. 👀

Elon Musk has become a big shame. That’s all. Never buy a TeZla Tesla. ❤️🇺🇦People

Let's be clear here on this term freedom of speech if I don't want you cursing in my house I have the right to put you out but what you say in the streets I have no control over and if you can't control what goes on in your house is it really your house

Anything to help the democrats

As they should. He has committed securities fraud on multiple occasions. About time he is held accountable for at least one of them.

Hadel 🤣😂

The FBI going after those who the democrats fear.

Ofcourse all this stuff around twitter is happening right before election

Twitter leaking a federal investigation because they want to close the deal. Absurd. Powers that be want to torpedo this at all cost, but especially before November.

Best businessman the work in the world God bless God bless America

lookner These comments are a testimony to the theory of group think.

lookner The regime has fallen.

davetroy I’m reading this with the voice of Robin Leach in the Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous. It’s more entertaining.

lookner Guy doesn’t want his finances disclosed.

lookner Ha, the FBI is corrupt as hell and they think they can assault the richest man in America? Fuck them up good Elon!!!!!!

StraighttoHell 20 years l8ter ? 2000Fake GrenadaBank DavidMarchant XCDbank FATCA fake Internationaltax Laws for UScitizens inGrenada Mitchell announced he was calling in the FBI but the agency declined ?. privaterelay. appleid.com

Elon rocks!!!! We all love him! Everyone loves Elon and SpaceX!! Team Dragon is Go!!!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🎯🎯🎯🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

The Dems are attacking anyone thats not for them . Using all the state resources they can .

Shouldn't the Fed's be investigating Twitter? Twitter lied about the amount of bots, had a clicking farm, did not protect users & hired sketchy workers that can compromise security. There was testimony from Mudge, former Twitter security tech. This is not right.

Because he asked the Pentagon to take the bill of Ukraine starlink

Gee, looking more and more like the feds have been weaponized to take on those who don't toe the line for the democratic party.

I guess the globalists don't wanna loose control of their giant propaganda machine, who woulda thunk it.

He knew they would come for him

Just in time for the mid terms the liberals need control of the internet under 'disinformation '.

Wow this is the most pathetic thing I have ever seen... they decided to harass him. Holy hell... I hope this backfires so bad to the point that they lose their lives.

Elon out played them., what an endgame..

Old news.

Our government is absolutely out of control! I don't think a single billionaire should even exist until every American is paid a $1,500 monthly FreedomShare dividend payment (capitalism on steroids!) since citizens make billionaires possible: But this abuse of power is wrong!

good

Russian ASSet

A court filing made public by the social media company revealed SEC's on going scrutiny into the Tesla chief's acquisition bid .

davetroy Maybe because he works for the Russian propagandists. He is no better than tfg when it comes to bending over for Putin. An American social media company cannot have a Russian puppet owner; it’ll only lead to more misinformation that feeds the uneducated MAGA Qanon zombies.

Guess that's everyone's signal to not challenge the establishment!

That’s the result of supporting conservatives

The powers that be are afraid of the Cybertruck. Stay the course, Elon! 🙌

About time

Scared of free speech

CNN is being investigated for being a news organization

davetroy Good.

Dems are terrified of big business

Witch hunt. It is what the Democrats do.

He looks more and more like Kim Jong Un with each passing day

Liberals are out to get anyone against them

davetroy It’s either about illegal insider trading with Jack or about him acting as a foreign agent/setting up a financial package with Russian and Chinese support

He will privatize this platform, if he acquires it.

What about russian bill? 🤥

Elon Musk elonmusk subject of investigation, it's the season of BIG money investigation TwitterBigStick

Feds and Dems are scared they may lose a major form of their mind control. Don't worry sheep, you'll still have CNN.

The perfume cartel is spinning up some nonsense elonmusk — this is BS

Looool if Twitter played him.....baited him into being forced to sign on to the deal knowing that maybe he'd do some shadiness to get out of it, get the feds involved, massive govt fines, cripple his ass. Hopefully. Probably not, but hopefully.

Follow the money.

You could not make this up,

The feds are so useless.

Gogo Musk, Elon, wanakuuliza nini🤔

One Flew Over the Twitter Cuckoo's Nest.🪺 ElonMusk Twitter Investigate

Alex Jones?✔️ Kanye West?✔️ Donald Trump?✔️ Elon Musk?✔️

Should I be the one to tweet that I’m buying Twitter next? I feel left out.

LOL!!! Damn homie.

Imagine that

What the hell is the board of directors at Twitter doing? Why would they want anything to do with this man?

What Is there an inquiry about the underwear he buys or the cars he makes like what? The only person that should be inquiring about this is elonmusk

Nazis gotta be Nazis.

For being a Republican

Why would anyone allow a known Russian agent to buy any social media platform?

I used to love Elon Musk but he completely went off the rails lately. The only company of his I support now is SpaceX. I am glad he is finally getting investigated for his games. Hopefully he learns his lesson. I don’t think he is a bad guy just horribly misguided at the moment.

Lmaooooo libs will burn Twitter down before they let Musk own it

Hahahahahaha.

EyesOnTheRight Looking good egon!

EyesOnTheRight

Garland is out of control

I’m not a Musk fanboy but we all know why he is being investigated. And it has nothing to do with Twitter

The feds have chased him into perfume sales! 🤣

Big man wants his ten percent.

💩 about to hit the fan?

Huge surprise we know biden and federal authorities are compromised .....this issue is a result of it DOJ and FBI have been weaponized against us the people and have lost all credibility with every one of us

CIA and the Biden regime don’t like free speech. Here comes the Feds! What a joke our government is.

He's a Putin Puppet.

AnaNavarro liberals buying media everywhere.

Of course. They can’t have him take over Twitter and expose the censorship being perpetrated by the administration

lmaoo

🌎 richest man, wow

Because of all the secret GOV contracts that he's now privy to more then likely.

why's everyone always going after the gays?

Look likes... 😎

Everyone knows with musk there's always some crooked shit going.

🙄 Biden’s personal weaponized police force.

Gee, I wonder what his public relations strategy will be..

And they posted it on Twitter

So if he buys it at the original price ; how is there any manipulation?

Our government is worried they can't control Twitter anymore

How about his Doge manipulation? 😁

Biden is in bed with big oil and big Elon

Uncle Sam is scared they won’t be able to mislead the masses with their propaganda on twitter lol

“Can’t let someone who can’t be bought control the narrative, better act quick”

Another guy the big guy and his cronnies want to silence

Maybe the Feds will block the sale

Support him! Buy his perfume, the best perfume on earth.

Government is so mad hes rich

And they said Trump was a fascist. This is the most corrupt TheJusticeDept in history

Political witch hunt.

Biden’s America

As they should for a noted con artist in elonmusk

Lol

The next con to fall will be Elon.
