Musk resubmitted his security clearance application, called an SF-86, to Department of Defense officials after he smoked marijuana during an appearance on the podcast and YouTube show"Joe Rogan Experience" in September 2018, Bloomberg reported Thursday, citing an unnamed US official.
Social media users have widely mocked reports that federal officials were concerned about Musk apparently taking a hit of pot. Recreational marijuana use is legal in at least 10 states and the nation's capital, Washington, DC, but it remains illegal under federal law.
