If only they'd do that with real estate. I'd chip in to gift Xi Jinping full ownership of Twitter if in exchange the US did away with foreign ownership of real property.

Please, red pill him some more.

But no it looks like they will just "scrutinize" it the way they did with TikTok.

The regulatory lawyers interviewed by Reuters said the risk of CFIUS blocking Musk's deal is small because he will control Twitter under the proposed takeover and the foreign investors are acquiring relatively small stakes

They do this at the same time they're investigating Musk for refusing to give foreigners access to American ballistic missile technology.

He's cool to launch rockets for nasa but text messages from faggots is much too important.

They don't care about launching rockets if they can simply control what everyone thinks via social media.

Starting? If the last two years hasn't broken someone of that delusion, nothing will.

I laughed in the 80s about the subject, but the conspiracy nuts were absolutely right. I'll never be able to apologize to anonymous from the era.

The last 8 have been pretty sobering honestly.

But musks spacex contracts are fine despite making rocket engines like that puts him in the aero space industry making spacex fall under federal restrictions on hiring foreign nationals. And hasn’t Musk acquired US citizenship?

Where was this concern when it was the Saudis running Twitter?

It's all so goddamn transparent at this point. They aren't even trying, which just leads me to believe we should drop the charade that the government is still legitimate and not simply the biggest organized crime syndicate in town.

No. They won't. This is all bullshit fake news.
