:: I’m concerned that companies in China could come into the U.S., make a sweetheart deal, take sensitive information, take proprietary technologies, and use it to enrich their own space program, their own national security efforts in China ::

My God, man!
What have you paying attention to since the EFFING Nixon administration?
That is ALL the heathen Chinee have done to the US since RMN.

No worries, Obama dictated that NASA’s mission priority was to enrich the lives of Muslims, and the Chinese hate Muslims

The Swamp doesn’t like the lower prices and quick delivery SpaceX provides. There isn’t as much money to steal and it’s tougher to get away with it.

SpaceX is the only US company that has the capability to launch humans into space. And Starship is way out in front of everyone in the world. Now the long knives are out for Musk. gardner is a POS, I trust Elon a hell of a lot more then gardner or this congress.

Follow the money. The United Launch Alliance (ULA) doesn’t like the competition.

funny, SpaceX and Tesla are separate company, spaceX is in Hawthorne in Socal, Telsa is in NoCal. I bet Boeing and ULa are into this

The future of Tesla has been wagered in China. Musk has located major manufacturing facilities in China and intends to market his EVs in China. The company will be finished within five years. Chinese workers, technicians, scientists and executives staff Tesla’s Chinese facilities. All of Tesla’s software, battery and manufacturing technology will be “shared” with China’s own EV manufacturers.They will produce comparable products much cheaper. It is highly unlikely that any profits from Tesla sales in China will ever be remitted to its stockholders in the US.The EV market in the US is extremely limited without coercive legislation.

Musk knows it will ultimately fail. However his gambit has already made him perhaps the world’s wealthiest man since Tesla stock ( a company with no profits) trades close to $2,000/share. Musk’s personal stock holding have a book value of over $40 billion. The US Government is rightly concerned that any Space X technology will also be “shared” with China.
