FULL TITLE: Now Elon Musk faces US Air Force investigation into his wild weed-smoking podcast because the drug-taking breaches SpaceX security clearance rules

The US Air Force is looking into Elon Musk after he smoked marijuana during a wild, rambling two-and-a-half-hour podcast streamed live onto YouTube, it emerged on Friday.

Marijuana use is prohibited for people with government security clearance, which Musk gained in 2015 when his company SpaceX started launching satellites for the Pentagon.

The US Air Force told DailyMail.com a formal investigation is not underway at this time, but would not rule out that members of the department were looking into the incident. An Air Force source confirmed to CNBC that staff were examining the podcast.

Tesla shares plunged this morning after the Tesla founder smoked and drank whiskey while discussing everything from drugs to the possibility we're all living in a simulation.

Doesn’t sound like a very smart move for Musk.

Happens to some who get too much money and power too fast.

Hell, I'll be amazed if at least one poster doesn't say he should lose his life.

He knew the rules going in. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

You're probably right which isn't cool but you gotta admit it was a Bozo move on his part.

I think he's been under too much pressure for too long. He's starting to crack under the strain. I've seen it time and time again with wildly innovative entrepreneurs. They're incredible at creating stuff, but don't do as well under the burdens of managing their creations day after day for years.

The billions in Fed funds are winding down but looks like Cali is going to bail him out.
