Three weeks ago we brought you a story on the heels of the Brazilian versus X.com and Elon Musk powder keg. In the immediate aftermath of a Brazilian Judge shutting down access and imposing crazy fines on Brazilians caught accessing Elon’s X.com platform (formerly Twitter), Elon shared a post by Shaun Maguire with the following commentary:
The attacks this year on free speech are unprecedented in the 21st century.
It will happen in America too if Kamala/Walz gain power.
Just listen to what they’ve said. https://t.co/TkHxCOcs1w

And it appears that things are heading that direction. Today the SEC, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, whose job it is to ensure fairness in the arena of stock exchanges and large business deals which effect those exchange markets, announced that it will seek to sanction Elon Musk.
Why? Because he failed to show up to give testimony about his takeover of Twitter at the court-ordered date and time because he was occupied overseeing a rocket launch, and apparently 3 hours notice that he couldn’t make the appointment wasn’t satisfactory for the SEC.
The SEC is harassing @elonmusk because they act now
