US agencies tracked foreigners visiting Musk's properties in 2022 and 2023, WSJ reports

  • In 2022 and 2023, multiple U.S. federal agencies, including those responsible for security and law enforcement, monitored visits by foreign individuals to Elon Musk's American properties amid concerns about potential attempts to influence him.
  • The investigation started prior to Donald Trump's current administration and focused on concerns that some of Musk's foreign connections, particularly those from Eastern Europe and elsewhere, might be trying to exert influence.
  • Elon Musk leads five companies, among them SpaceX, which has secured nearly $21 billion in sensitive U.S. government contracts since 2008, and he possesses top-secret security clearance through SpaceX.
  • America PAC, Musk's super PAC started last year to support Trump's re-election, expressed concern about foreign nationals at Musk's meetings, with staff instituting vetting to exclude foreigners.
  • The inquiry concluded without criminal charges but raised ongoing security questions about Musk's international ties and foreign contacts amid his high-security roles and political activity.
