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)

/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.

Crowded Coop: Musk Drops Big Hint About Staffing Changes After Twitter Takeover

/0 Comments/in , /by

Elon Musk, who declared himself “Chief Twit” after closing his $44 billion takeover of Twitter this week, hinted at more staffing shakeups for the platform on Sunday morning.

A Twitter user asked Musk what the “most messed up” thing at Twitter right now is.

“There seem to be 10 people ‘managing’ for every one person coding,” Musk replied.

The Tesla CEO said in May, just weeks after first making the offer, that the “company will be super focused on hardcore software engineering, design, infosec & server hardware” once the takeover is complete.

“I strongly believe that all managers in a technical area must be technically excellent,” Musk tweeted on May 6. “Managers in software must write great software or it’s like being a cavalry captain who can’t ride a horse!” (Read more from “Crowded Coop: Musk Drops Big Hint About Staffing Changes After Twitter Takeover” HERE)

Good Riddance: Hollywood Elites Panic, Vow to Quit Twitter Over Elon Musk Takeover

/0 Comments/in , /by

Left-wing Hollywood elites are vowing to quit Twitter after Elon Musk completed his $44 billion takeover of the social media giant this week. But their righteous fury is already being called phony by those who believe, as one put it, that quitting Twitter will become the new “I’m moving to Canada.”

NBC’s This Is Us producer Ken Olin was among the first to declare his Twitter exodus. “I’m out of here,” he tweeted Friday.

“No judgement. Let’s keep the faith. Let’s protect our democracy. Let’s try to be kinder. Let’s try to save the planet. Let’s try to be more generous. Let’s look to find peace in the world.” . . .

Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure star Alex Winter also declared his departure from Twitter. “In retrospect it was inevitable,” he posted before providing a link to his other social media accounts, including Facebook and Instagram.

Showtime’s Billions producer Brian Koppelman declared he will try to take a “breather” from Twitter. (Read more from “Good Riddance: Hollywood Elites Panic, Vow to Quit Twitter Over Elon Musk Takeover” HERE)

Economic Downturn in Tech Industry Could Affect Americans in Worst Way

/0 Comments/in , /by

Americans could suffer from Big Tech firms laying off workers and freezing hiring as the economy remains volatile, the founder of a Bay Area job search community told Fox News.

“The average American will probably be impacted, at least in some form, by what may happen in this next economic downturn in the tech industry,” Albert’s List founder Albert Qian said. “We touch these things every single day, whether it’s Google Search, a store on Amazon, an Apple device.”

“When the Microsofts, the Googles, the Amazons, the Twitters, when those companies start laying off people, that’s when we need to start paying attention,” he continued.

Major tech companies have taken steps to cut their workforce in anticipation of an economic downturn in the coming months. Microsoft, for example, recently announced layoffs across multiple divisions, and Meta implemented a hiring freeze.

/0 Comments/in , , /by

After Elon Musk’s takeover of Twitter became official on Thursday evening, the libs that had previously enjoyed a veneer of moral superiority by screeching about conservatives until they got suspended or banned by the company’s censors were in utter disarray.

The intolerants were especially livid over Musk’s tweet declaring that Twitter was now under his control and free, reacting to the news much like the Wicked Witch of the West responded to being doused with a bucket of water.

Elon Musk Barges Into Twitter HQ Carrying Sink as Deal Nears: ‘Let That Sink In’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Billionaire Elon Musk carried an actual sink into Twitter’s San Francisco headquarters during a surprise visit Wednesday ahead of his expected acquisition of the company.

Musk shared a video laughing while lugging the sink into the lobby – two days before his court-ordered deadline to close a $44 billion deal to buy Twitter or face a trial. Earlier in the day, the Tesla boss changed his Twitter bio to “Chief Twit.”

“Entering Twitter HQ – let that sink in!” Musk tweeted alongside the nine-second video.

In a memo to staffers, Twitter chief marketing officer Leslie Berland revealed that Musk would be on site at the company’s headquarters throughout the week. Musk is also expected to personally address employees on Friday.

“Elon is in the SF office this week meeting with folks, walking the halls, and continuing to dive in on the important work you all do,” Berland wrote in the memo, according to Bloomberg. “For everyone else, this is just the beginning of many meetings and conversations with Elon, and you’ll all hear directly from him on Friday.”

/0 Comments/in , /by

Political strategist Steve Schmidt took to Twitter Wednesday to blast disgraced never-Trump advocacy group the Lincoln Project, an organization he co-founded in 2019.

Schmidt stepped down from leadership at the Lincoln Project after reports surfaced that co-founder John Weaver allegedly sent sexually explicit messages to several young men.

“.@ProjectLincoln should either be professionalized and reformed or shut down. I founded it. i left it a year ago,” Schmidt wrote in the first of a series of tweets.

Among his many proposed reforms, Schmidt called for co-founder Reed Galen and high-ranking figures Ron Steslow and Mike Madrid to step down from their roles at the organization.
