The potential probe will focus on Musk’s massive political donations to Republicans and his past role leading President Donald Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency.
I don’t know that there’s anything necessarily illegal about his donations? But I think in the previous election he was paying people to vote for Trump, and sending people pre-filled ballots, both of which are clearly illegal.
Representative Greg Casar raised concerns about potential conflicts of interest, questioning if Musk’s donations aim to secure additional federal government contracts for SpaceX and Tesla.
This has to be the biggest problem with Musk. Although again, not sure if there was anything strictly illegal done there. If there was, it was probably on the part of Trump, who has complete immunity from prosecution for Presidential acts.

Both giving and receiving bribes is illegal.
Of course, if we’re talking immunity, though, Trump could decide to pardon Musk at any time, and there’s nothing anybody could do about it.

So I remain pessimistic…
