Now, he started to share more on the subject. According to Musk, Sam Bankman-Fried was a person who made large donations to Democrats. For this reason, Musk claimed that the SBF has not been investigated at this time. Then, he released an image describing the relationship between Gary Gensler, Chairman of the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and SBF. In the image, attention is drawn to both Gensler being a professor at MIT before becoming SEC Chair, and SBF’s being an MIT graduate.
