Welcome to the Creep State, where the Deep State springs into action at the behest of the creeps of the Biden administration.
The latest evidence we’re living in a totalitarian regime can be found in the SEC’s announcement today that they are investigating Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter — now known as X. They’re even taking him to court to get him to testify. The lawsuit came almost a year after President Joe Biden (creeper-in-chief) said that the business move was “worth being looked at” and declined to say if he thought that Musk was a national security threat.
When asked how he would do that, Biden ominously chuckled, “There’s a lot of ways.”
BIDEN: I think that Elon Musk's cooperation and or technical relationships with other countries is worthy of being looked at. Whether or not he is doing anything inappropriate — I'm not suggesting that — I'm suggesting that it's worth being looked at. But that's all I'll say. pic.twitter.com/I11l87M5FQ

Well, now, multiple government agencies have opened probes or lawsuits into Musk and his many businesses. On Thursday, CNBC reported that the SEC has sued Musk in “an effort to compel the billionaire to testify over his purchase of Twitter last year.”
Musk reportedly failed to show up for testimony on September 15 after being served a subpoena in May 2023, per the media outlet.
“Musk’s ongoing refusal to comply with the SEC’s administrative subpoena is hindering and delaying the SEC staff’s investigation to determine whether violations of the federal securities laws have occurred,” the attorneys wrote in the complaint. “Accordingly, the SEC now asks the Court to compel Musk to appear for investigative testimony.”
What’s Musk’s crime? Well, on paper it’s hard to say. The SEC is just asking questions.

In reality, it appears he committed the unforgivable sin of going against the Left and exposing the corruption between the federal government and Twitter to censor Americans. After purchasing Twitter, he embarrassed and weakened the government’s ability to control the people. He supported free speech and refused to bow to tyrants.
He does things like shoot guns, criticize the FBI, praise Tucker Carlson’s interviews, reject radical gender ideology, and has a sense of humor. More egregiously — to Biden and his ilk in The Swamp — he doesn’t go along with the latest Forever War in Ukraine. He puts Americans first.
All of that, and more, is why the Left hates him.
Biden telegraphed that Musk would be investigated. Now, it’s happening. Nobody should be surprised at what The Creep State will do.
