Elon Musk has serious problems after his scandalous post

As journalists managed to find out, the US Secret Service began checking Musk after his "joking" post about possible attacks on the American leader Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.

The team of the aforementioned Service aims to find out whether the odious billionaire poses a threat to high-ranking American officials, in particular to Biden and Harris.

In addition, it is emphasized that the records of Elon Musk's scandalous post were collected for law enforcement purposes, but are not disclosed in order not to hinder the investigation.

And no one is even trying to kill Biden/Kamala,” the billionaire “joked” on the social network X (Twitter).

Later, he tried to justify himself, noting that not everyone understands his "jokes" and not everyone finds them funny.

Elon Musk can really be punished

What is important to understand is that in the United States, threatening the president or vice president is a criminal offense.

If it is possible to prove Elon Musk's guilt, then he can be fined heavily.

What's more, the scandalous billionaire even faces up to five years in prison.

The agency is aware of Elon Musk's publication in social networks. As a general rule, we do not comment on matters relating to defense intelligence. However, we can say that the Secret Service investigates all threats involving our caregivers, said Secret Service spokesman Nate Herring.

While it is difficult to predict exactly how this high-profile scandal will end.
