Ex-FBI Agent: Elon Musk's Drug Habit Made Him an Easy Target for Russian Spies

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Elon Musk's well-documented drug use made him an easy target for Russian secret service agents, former FBI agent Johnathan Buma told German television broadcaster ZDF during a recently aired documentary.

Buma said there was evidence that both he and fellow billionaire Peter Thiel were targeted by Russian operatives.

"Musk's susceptibility to promiscuous women and drug use, in particular ketamine, and his gravitation towards club life... would have been seen by Russian intelligence service as an entry point for an operative to be sent in after studying their psychological profile and find a way to bump into them, and quickly brought into their inner circle," Buma told ZDF.

"I'm not allowed to discuss the details of exactly how we obtained this information," he added. "But there's a vast amount of evidence to support this fact."

Nearly everyone else gets screened for this if they want a job with the Federal government.

1. G.O.P. operatives are so sickeningly cozy with the Evil Empire*

which has for decades had the goal of "burying" America.

* Russia, according to former Republican saint, Ronald Reagan.

2. I would imagine that they were screened by the FSB and were automatically approved.

3. True of Pete Hegseth as well.

And we already knew that Tulsi Gabbard is a Russian asset.

The federal government is run by Russia right now.

4. Wonder if Gabbard was the operative that targeted him on some bender.

5. The Trump administration is not only criminally vulnerable to penetration by foreign intelligence forces, they

are also rapidly dismantling many of the nation's security assets.

7. Or he was an easy target (like Trump) because he is an egotistical imbecile.

8. Oh Dear Sweet God, does this mean Peter Thiel could be in trouble?

OH MAAAAAAAN!!! Be still my heart!!! In my fondest, most ardent, and most DEEPLY-HELD DREAMS!!!

9. My own thought is that they moved on to an even better club drug, scopalamine

Yes, the drug in that little patch you stick behind your ear to prevent seasickness is a popular club and party drug and in high doses, it does some very weird things. It would be more likely for that one to be the drug of choice for Russians looking for converts among the bllionaires, just send in some KGB dollies willing to do whatever is necessary to reel them on in.

Thiel has always been a rotten asshole but there was a change in Musk a few years ago that was so profound I did ask here and elsewhere which Russian agent he was banging as a steady thing.

I would strongly suspect the KGB has moved on from drugs like ketamine and fentanyl laced coke to something more effective.

(As an aside, in the book "Deep Undercover" by Jack Barsky in which he details his recruitment as a KGB operative in East Germany to be based in the NYC area, he states that converts were impossible to find on the American left, only conservatives were open to the Russian lies, some allowing themselves to be recruited)

10. I'm resting on the assumption that anything trump knows, Moscow can demand

a summary of it and delivered personally to the Ministry of Defense by Hesgseth wearing a lime-green velour jogging suit.

11. K & R This needs to be shouted from the rooftops

I'll bet the MAGAs have no clues about any of this.

13. Can we use the "T" word now?

Treason.

[Javaman]

14. Two dipshits

With fucked up childhoods and self image issues.

Just like the orange bastard, they want to take revenge on all the people that treated them wrong, but because they both have zero personality, that revenge extends to everyone that not them

15. So did is arrogant stupidity.

[Scrivener7]

16. And now he has ALL the data. For everything.
