   Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said Tuesday that her agency had “no   
   basis” to investigate the finances of Twitter following calls from   
   Democrats, including President Joe Biden, to investigate the company or   
   owner Elon Musk over its connections with the Saudi Arabian royal family.   
      
   Yellen’s comments come less than a week after Biden told reporters at a   
   Nov. 9 press conference that Musk’s connection to the Saudis, who gained a   
   roughly 4% stake in Twitter after investing roughly $1.9 billion into the   
   mogul’s $44 billion acquisition of the platform, was “worth being looked   
   at.” Democratic Sen. Chris Murphy of Connecticut previously wrote to   
   Yellen, in her capacity as the chair of the Committee on Foreign   
   Investment in the United States (CFIUS), requesting that CFIUS investigate   
   the company due to “national security concerns” over potential Saudi   
   access to Twitter users’ data in an Oct. 31 letter. (RELATED: Musk’s

   “Well, I’m not sure precisely what [the president] had in mind, but we are   
   — we have really no basis — to the best of my knowledge — to examine his   
   finances of his company. I’m not aware of concerns that would cause us to   
   [investigate],” said Yellen to CBS News. Treasury officials have   
   reportedly performed a routine review of the deal to determine if they had   
   grounds for further investigation.   
      
   While Yellen has seemingly shot down a CFIUS investigation for now,   
   Democrats from both the House and the Senate, including Sen. Ed Markey of   
   Massachusetts and Rep. Jan Schakowsky of Illinois, have called attention   
   to the Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) authority to investigate Twitter’s   
   use of user data, according to Politico.   
      
   “Musk should be held personally liable,” for alleged violations of user   
   privacy that occur under his control of the company, Schakowsky told   
   Politico.   
      
   “Every day at that company brings increasing chaos that threatens users’   
   wellbeing,” Markey told Politico. “The FTC has an obligation to make sure   
   Twitter and its leadership are abiding by their responsibilities under the   
   law and agreements with regulators.”   
      
   A rash of high-level executives, including Chief Information Security   
   Officer Lea Kissner and Chief Privacy Officer Damien Kieran, left Twitter   
   amid concerns that Musk was willing to violate FTC rules and had   
   circumvented the company’s privacy procedures when launching the new   
   Twitter Blue subscription, according to The Verge.
