White House denies conflict in Trump purchase of SpaceX debt

Original: White House on Trump purchasing SpaceX debt before space order: ‘No conflicts of interest’

Officials are defending the purchase, but critics question the timing of a financial move involving Elon Musk's company ahead of a policy decision affecting the space industry.
