In a blockbuster move Thursday, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filed charges of fraud against Tesla Chief Executive Elon Musk, and is seeking to ban the electric-car maker’s high-profile boss from running any publicly traded company.

The SEC filed charges against Musk in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The charges are related to Musk’s August announcement that he wanted to take Tesla private for $420 a share. Musk dropped the bombshell idea in an August 7 tweet in which he said he had “funding secured” to take Tesla private, but provided no financing details at that time.

LOL. This stupid grifter told the SEC that he made these illegal comments to impress his ugly girlfriend and he was high.
