BOOM! Let's hope this is "historic" in assisting the righting of the ship back to what this country was founded upon. This WOKE totalitarian communistic overlay has to go! Elon BE that person...that light!

Let's see how all the laid-off, overpaid, progressive employees cope with trying to heat their homes and charge their electric vehicles without the cushy salaries they've been enjoying. Maybe their "green new deal" won't seem like such a deal..

"Agrawal and Segal, as well as Vijaya Gadde, head of legal policy, trust, and safety, were shuttled from the building after being fired. " Sweet.

Don't you love how these cry baby Twitter Twerps wrote in their Musk letter begging to keep their jobs that "We will not stop serving the public conversation." More like "We will not stop CENSORING conversation." Funny how they demand to be "Respected" and they demand "Safety" from political belief discrimination when they are guilty of what they seek protection from (in fact they are guilty of much worse - cooperating with our government to violate our First Amendment rights). At least for today (probably more), I am guilty of schadenfreude, and it feels damn good.

I can't shake the creepy feeling of what it means that Musk is indebted to the Federal government for all the government money his companies have received over the years. I really hope he cleans house at Twitter and opens it back up for everyone to use, but I can't help to feel slightly suspicious about his underlying motives. Also, I love a good conspiracy theory :)

Whoo hoo - cant wait to get outta jail. Wonder if they'll tell me why I was suspended....

Ask each employee four simple questions.

1. Do you believe that freedom of speech and expression are not natural rights that all Americans are entitled to and not protected under our Constition?

2. Do you believe that the US is systemically racist and misogynist and do you support the principles of equity (i.e. giving or reducing preference to people based on their selected racial, gender or sexual identity)?

3. Do you believe that Trump supporters are fascists?

4. If you answered no to these questions, would you object to signing an acknowledgement that will be posted for all Twitter employees to see?

Answering yes to any of these questions should result in termination of employment as they proven unfit to work for a social media platform.

I'm hoping this was done by the POSs on their way out the door, rather than by Elon's incoming squad. Because I've done NOTHING whatsoever to deserve this tonight, after having had full access this afternoon.

"Your account is permanently suspended

After careful review, we determined your account broke the Twitter Rules. Your account is permanently in read-only mode, which means you can’t Tweet, Retweet, or Like content. You won’t be able to create new accounts. If you think we got this wrong, you can submit an appeal."

Careful review my ass. They didn't identify any tweet or any language that deserved first-strike permanent suspension, they didn't even send an email saying that I'd been permanently suspended.

I'm guessing it's the human debris 75% who will be pink-slipped shortly who pulled this sh*t.

i hope and pray that every Republican that wins elections in Nov have at least 1/2 the gumption that Musk has with twitter. If they don’t, they’ll get replaced too.

It’s about time the radical woke A-holes get shut down. We’ve seen what they’ve done to our country and enough is enough. Musk starting out saying he’d be firing 75% of the employees was music to my ears and all those that just quit before they could get fired, great!!

Gotta give Musk credit.. him walking through the front door carrying a sink saying LET THAT SINK IN that he’s the new owner was EPIC!!

He’s got style, I’ll give him that.

Twitter suspended my account -- for what I do not know. It was before covid, so it was probably my love of Trump. I also don't believe in climate change and I believe in the right to bear arms. Twitter and FB (now ridiculously "Meta" - and yes, I was suspended there too) have both done horrible as investments and as far as I'm concerned they can both go out of business. Musk is no friend to conservatives either, so beware. Tesla makes a whole lot of money trading their emissions credits with other manufacturers which is just corporate extortion.

Also Tesla's cars are subsidized by rebates made possible by tax credits, which if you know the price of a Tesla, you realize this is just welfare payments for wealthy people.

Wonder what their severance deals were? Bet they also had stock shares. I guess as nice socialists they’ll use those funds to help the homeless.

Did they have to provide safe spaces for the devoted Twitter censors, I mean employees left behind?

Twitter this week. The “outraged left” sees to it a dirty bomb is set off in Ukraine next week.

Desperation to divide for power breeds insanity. Fervently hope I am wrong on this. (Pre-Covid lockdowns, would never have considered it.)

They should be fitted. And no severance either. Gross incompetence.

Although this is a victory for free speech I'm not ready to recommend Elon for knighthood just yet. He's not a Commie/ Marxist but he does lean liberal just like Joe Rogan. And I don't know his views about Trump but that would be a good barometer. I recently saw a clip of him giving some dire warning about all the carbon we're putting in the atmosphere and how it has to end to fossil fuels. And maybe it was a doctored clip but someone who has his intelligence shold surely realize that we are a carbon based creation as is everything around us. These are views of the woke, flat earthers that believe we can have any sugnicant effect on the climate. God put it motion, like everything else. The climate will change as He has ordained. If Elon wants to help the planet, go on a campaign against litter, or converting trash to something useful, or beter methods of recycling. There are steps we can take to clean things up but we can'tchange the weather by eliminating carbon.

Could not happen to a bigger group of Fascists. Hopefully, Twitter can now live up to it’s potential of being the Town Square and stop being the center of the Progressive Gulag.

He's going to go through hell, if the current power boys have their way! The only hope is November 8, 2022! Then, if there is a God, the Democrat Criminal Enterprise's "big guys", Wray and Grarland will be tarred and feathered, and tossed in some nasty garbage dump! It would please me no end to see both of them forced to spend about 30 days in a freaking homeless enclave, with the craziest drugies and, smelliest drunks. Sleeping on human feces and puke! I agree they should be forced to stay 4 or 5 times more than that, except I am really a fine, compassionate person, with love in my heart! I adore puppies a little kittens!
