Musk is an outspoken critic of the current administration. Given what we've seen from the Justice Department over the last few years, does it not seem highly likely that this is politically-motivated?


Musk has actually been treated with an incredibly light touch given the number of people who have been maimed and killed by Teslas running Autopilot. If this Administration was truly antagonistic to Musk, there are dozens of things they could be doing to create problems for him and his companies. They're not.


Or the current administration is trying to have regulators and prosecutors start to go after malfeasance and Musk is criticizing the administration because he’s got a lot that he can be prosecuted for.

Isn’t it fun how wild, unsubstantiated, paranoid speculation can cut both ways?
