SpaceX shared a post on September 25, 2024, highlighting several incorrect statements made by Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Administrator Mike Whitaker. The post from SpaceX expressed concern that every claim Whitaker made regarding SpaceX’s licensing matters was inaccurate. SpaceX emphasised how troubling it is that the Administrator seems to lack access to correct information on such critical matters. The post also prompted reactions from Elon Musk and Tesla Engineer Alex (@ajtourville). Musk stated, "America is being smothered by legions of regulators, often inept & politically-driven." Alex (@ajtourville) criticised the FAA's actions and said, “The FAA is clearly acting in bad faith for political reasons and this cannot be left to stand unopposed by Congress and the courts.” He further suggested that SpaceX should seek immediate injunctive relief against the FAA.

SpaceX Should Seek Immediate Injunctive Relief Against the FAA
This situation with the FAA goes far beyond a bloated bureaucracy and ineptitude – The FAA is clearly acting in bad faith for political reasons and this cannot be left to stand unopposed by Congress and the courts.
SpaceX should seek immediate injunctive relief against the FAA. https://t.co/u9BqiVhXyT
