Biden Suggests Elon Musk’s Twitter Deal Is ‘Worth Being Looked at’ as a Possible National Security Threat

/0 Comments/in , , /by

President Joe Biden said that it was worth looking into Elon Musk’s associations with foreign governments after being prompted by a reporter Wednesday.

Biden was asked to comment on the possibility of Musk’s associations being a national threat to U.S. security after he gave remarks about the results of the midterm elections.

“Do you think Elon Musk is a threat to U.S. national security and should the U.S., with the tools you have, investigate his joint acquisition of Twitter with foreign governments, which include the Saudis?” asked the reporter.

Biden laughed and paused before answering.

“I think that Elon Musk’s cooperation and/or technical relationships with other countries is worthy of being looked at,” he responded. (Read more from “Biden Suggests Elon Musk’s Twitter Deal Is ‘Worth Being Looked at’ as a Possible National Security Threat” HERE)

Elon Musk Makes Election Day Choice, Gives Recommendation to ‘Independent-Minded Voters’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Billionaire Twitter CEO Elon Musk endorsed Republicans for the midterm election cycle on Monday, telling voters to cast ballots for a Republican Congress.

Musk’s announcement comes months after he first announced plans to vote Republican earlier this year. He argued Monday that having a government split between two parties is ideal, and noted President Biden’s possession of the White House for Democrats before saying Congress should go to Repubilicans.

“To independent-minded voters: Shared power curbs the worst excesses of both parties, therefore I recommend voting for a Republican Congress, given that the Presidency is Democratic,” Musk wrote.

Musk’s endorsement follows through on his vow to vote Republican in May. (Read more from “Elon Musk Makes Election Day Choice, Gives Recommendation to ‘Independent-Minded Voters'” HERE)

Laid-off Twitter Employees Reveal Their Fates: ‘8 Months Pregnant’

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Elon Musk-led Twitter began a long-dreaded and drastic round of layoffs on Friday — and numerous workers took to the social media site to confirm they were caught in the bloodbath.

Company officials began informing laid-off employees about their fate via an email message on Friday morning as Musk scrambles to cut costs at the struggling firm.

Roughly half of Twitter’s 7,500 employees were expected to lose their jobs during the culling — with some workers claiming they had lost access to systems overnight.

“Looks like I’m unemployed y’all. Just got remotely logged out of my work laptop and removed from Slack,” tweeted Simon Balmain, a former senior community manager at Twitter. “#OneTeam forever. Loved you all so much. So sad it had to end this way.”

Elon Musk Cancels ‘Days of Rest’ for Twitter Employees as Layoffs Loom: Report

/0 Comments/in , /by

Twitter’s “days of rest” for employee are now a thing of the past under new owner Elon Musk, according to a report Thursday.

Twitter began offering one companywide paid rest day per month, in addition to normal paid time off, during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic. The policy was meant to help reduce burnout among staffers.

But Musk has eliminated future “days of rest” from Twitter’s calendar this week, sources familiar with the situation told Bloomberg. The move came as Musk swiftly overhauls Twitter’s workplace culture after completing his $44 billion deal to buy the firm last week.

The Post has reached out to Twitter for comment on the change.

Musk interrupted one of Twitter’s “days of rest” even before he became the company’s owner and CEO. In April, employees reportedly learned that Musk had rejected an offer to take a seat on Twitter’s board of directors just before a scheduled day off — a development that left workers stressed out instead of relaxed.

Elon Musk Agrees to Restore Twitter Censorship Tools After Meeting With Leftist Groups

/0 Comments/in , /by

Elon Musk has agreed to restore Twitter content moderation tools that had been blocked for some workers by the end of the week, according to leaders of leftist groups including the ADL and NAACP who met with Musk eager to expand censorship on the platform.

Bloomberg reports that Twitter’s new owner Elon Musk recently promised civil rights leaders that he will restore access to content moderation tools that some staff had been locked out of by the end of the week.

During a Zoom meeting with the heads of some of the country’s leading leftist organizations, including the NAACP, Color of Change, and the ADL, Musk committed to restoring access to the tools.

Civil rights organizations raised worries about Musk’s plan to eliminate censorship on the platform and restore the accounts of users who had been expelled. According to Bloomberg, Twitter recently limited the number of people with access to the dashboard of tools that the Trust and Safety team utilizes to enforce policy actions.

Breitbart News recently reported that following Musk’s recent announcement that Twitter would be unbanning a number of blacklisted users, he has since stated that they won’t be allowed to return to the platform for “at least a few more weeks,” or in other words, until after the midterm elections have passed.

Elon Musk Stands With Twitter Extremist Leftist Who Thinks Trump Supporters Are Nazis

/0 Comments/in , /by

Elon Musk is standing by Yoel Roth as Twitter’s “Head of Safety & Integrity,” a notoriously left-wing employee with a history of fiery political tweets who previously equated members of the Trump administration with Nazis.

The New York Post reports that following his takeover of Twitter, Elon Musk is standing by Yoel Roth as Twitter’s “Head of Safety & Integrity.” Attention was drawn to Roth after Musk tweeted leaked screenshots of a conversation Roth was involved in that Musk claims proves the company lawyers and board misled him about the platform’s metrics.

Musk previously claimed that Twitter hid the number of fake users on its platform, causing the company to be overvalued but agreed to honor his earlier pledge to buy the social media network for $44 billion last week due to its “incredible potential.”

Musk tweeted a screenshot of comments made by Roth with the caption: “Wachtell & Twitter board deliberately hid this evidence from the court. Stay tuned, more to come …”

Conservative podcaster Liz Wheeler commented that Roth should have been the first person that Musk fired, but Musk was quick to defend Roth, stating: “We’ve all made some questionable tweets, me more than most, but I want to be clear that I support Yoel. My sense is that he has high integrity, and we are all entitled to our political beliefs.”

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The attorney of a major California city says her office will no longer be using Twitter because of the “troubling direction” the social media platform is moving.

San Diego City Attorney Mara W. Elliott shared her concerns Tuesday morning, writing that “Twitter is moving in a troubling direction – one that promotes hatred, violence, bullying, and false information.”

Elliott said her office would henceforth be using Instagram for news releases, media interactions, and publicly issued legal opinions. (Read more from “Democrat Takes Drastic Action After Elon Musk’s Takeover” HERE)

Biden and Democrats Spin the Attack on Paul Pelosi to Smear Trump, MAGA Backers; Oh My: Elon Just Dropped an Electrifying Tweet on Hillary About Paul Pelosi Attack

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By New York Post. Joe Biden lost no time blaming ultra-mega-semi-fascist-MAGA-Donald-Trump supporters for the strange attack on Paul Pelosi in his San Francisco home early Friday.

Barack Obama did the same, using a rally in Michigan for failed Gov. Gretchen Whitmer to rail against “politicians who work to stir up division to try to make us angry and afraid of one another for their own advantage.” . . .

So did every other Democrat surrogate, like Hollywood director Rob Reiner who tweeted: “Donald Trump is 100% responsible for this and Jan.6.”

So did all the Democrat-aligned media who delivered the same talking points in unison, along with dubiously sourced facts and a false depiction of the alleged attacker as a MAGA Republican in defiance of his drug-addicted hippy lifestyle, Green Party membership and the BLM and LGBT signs festooned across his sometime residence, a nudist commune in San Francisco’s gay Castro district.

It was a full-court press designed to flip the attack on the Speaker’s husband into an “October surprise” as Dems look down the barrel of a brutal shellacking from the voters next week. (Read more from “Biden and Democrats Spin the Attack on Paul Pelosi to Smear Trump, MAGA Backers” HERE)

Oh My: Elon Just Dropped an Electrifying Tweet on Hillary About Paul Pelosi Attack

By Red State. . .Hillary Clinton followed it up with her tweet, showing this is the new liberal talking point, not just random spewing from Biden. . .

A lot of people rightfully ratioed Clinton over her latest lies regarding the Pelosi attack.

But one response was truly a wowzer. It was from Elon Musk. Hold onto your hats for this one, because it’s going to cause all kinds of meltdowns–and more efforts to get Musk by people on the left.

He links to a website that has a lot of speculation about the Paul Pelosi attack, and some things that differ from the currently known facts.

There is a tiny possibility there might be more to this story than meets the eye https://t.co/HCaF5DrRjP

Elon Musk Reveals if Trump Will Be Allowed Back on Twitter

/0 Comments/in , /by

Elon Musk took to Twitter on Monday and addressed the question that’s on everybody’s mind: Will he permit Donald Trump back on the social media site?

“If I had a dollar for every time someone asked me if Trump is coming back on this platform, Twitter would be minting money!” the new Twitter boss tweeted Monday.

Musk last week completed his $44 billion acquisition of Twitter. Upon taking control of the company, he began cleaning house by firing its top executives.

In the weeks and months leading up to his purchase of Twitter, Musk, who calls himself a “free speech absolutist,” pledged to reinstate Trump’s account.

Ligma Johnson: Men Tell Reporter They’re Fired Twitter Employees, Give Hilarious Fake Names

/0 Comments/in , /by

Two San Francisco men seemingly duped a CNBC reporter covering the alleged mass Twitter layoffs following the takeover of Elon Musk.

Both men claimed to be fired Twitter employees. One man told reporters his name was “Rahul Ligma,” while the other identified himself as “Daniel Johnson,” a video showed.

[Warning: tweets contain explicit language.]

“Entire team of data engineers let go. These are two of them,” a tweet from CNBC reporter Deirdra Bosa read, implying they took the men’s statements seriously.

Both men carried boxes filled with office supplies. “Rahul,” who spelled his first and last names for the reporter, held a copy of Michelle Obama’s 2018 memoir, “Becoming,” while “Johnson” said he didn’t know how he’s would make payments on his Tesla, another tweet stated. . .

“After CNBC published details of an interview with people who claimed to be fired employees of Twitter, several reports emerged suggesting it was a hoax. CNBC could not confirm the identities of the individuals,” an update to a CNBC article on the layoffs stated.
