Elon Musk, as a pot and ketamine user, would be automatically disqualified and denied clearance.

And this was for Fannie Mae, not stuff touching national security.

The clearance process is rigorous and examines both personal history AND pee/blood. Any THC or other substances and you’re out. Any history of public drug use and you’re out.
