Biden says Musk's relationships with other countries must be looked into

President Joe Biden said Elon Musk’s relationships with other countries are “worthy of being looked at,” though he declined to say whether the world’s richest man was doing anything inappropriate.

“I think that Elon Musk’s cooperation and or technical relationships with other countries is worthy of being looked at,” Biden said at a White House news conference Wednesday.

If Biden worries about Musk, he's going to keel over when they tell him about TikTok.

Biden wants his fake twitter back or something bad will happen to Elon.

Biden seems to never have liked Musk. I remember some fracas about electric vehicles and Biden specifically left Tesla out of it.

Well, his timing sucks. Should have waited a few months after Musk made his support for republicans known. Now it just looks like he has a political grudge.

Bad reporting as the full facts are not being presented.

Biden is concerned that Saudi has shareholding in Twitter....

But but but....

Saudi Arabia's Kingdom Holding Company and Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal HAD 16.9% stake in Twitter before deal.
They just going to keep their 16.9% stake in the private Twitter after the deal.

Why suddenly is there a concern?
Why was the concern not there a year ago when Saudi had 16.9%?
