Bloomberg: The Secret Service is Looking Into Musk’s Post About Threats to Biden and Harris

The Secret Service is probing Elon Musk’s post about threats to President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, Bloomberg reports.

“The Secret Service is looking into Elon Musk’s post on X that suggested it was strange no one attempted to assassinate President Joe Biden or Vice President Kamala Harris. In response to a FOIA request, the agency said it is withholding records due to ‘enforcement proceedings,’” Jason Leopold and Dana Hull reported in their Bloomberg newsletter.

Bloomberg notes that threatening the president or vice president is “a felony that can carry a hefty fine or up to five years in prison.”

As the richest man on the planet, Elon Musk is highly unlikely to face any real consequences for his actions, even if they determine he violated the law.

Hours after a gunman was apprehended for a suspected assassination plot against ex-president Donald Trump on his golf course in Florida, Musk sent a tweet to his 198 million followers saying, “And no one is even trying to assassinate Biden/Kamala?”
