    EV's are amazing, as long as you don't live in an area of low Energy like California, or you could be stuck at home.

    ... and back on topic...

    I am curious how many lawsuits are coming against the Twitter board. If I could sell my stocks for a 20% profit and the board is stopping me.... we are going to have a problem... and a lawsuit.

    This is starting to reek of something really dirty. Is the Twitter board fearful of Elon getting the algorithms used during the last election cycle and making them public? Or perhaps more of the communications between Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube that all colluded during the election cycle?

    Yeah I think it's very clear their is a pattern of behavior from those tech companies. I find it odd that Marky from Dallas is freaking out now too.... like he's been radio silent forever and this gets him out?

    They fear the light being shined on their deeds. They fear the an open marketplace of ideas. These scumbags are being exposed.

    It's nice to see the Saudi Prince illustrate his disdain for Elon and a 20% profit for him and all the other shareholders. The Prince sits on the Twitter board.

    They don't know what to do, can't have free, unregulated thought and speech.

    ~ It does appear that much of America is seeing this as well. Independent journalists are gaining viewership — mainstream network ratings are in the toilet.
    There is hope ... :pray:'

    Twitter adopts 'poison pill' measure that could thwart Elon Musk's takeover bid

    ....The "poison pill" provision, announced in a press release Friday, preserves the right for Twitter shareholders other than Musk to acquire more shares of the company at a relatively inexpensive price, effectively diluting Musk's stake. The provision will be triggered if Musk (or any other investor) acquires more than 15% of the company's shares. Musk currently owns around 9% of Twitter's shares.

    Billionaire’s are now in a hostile takeover war to decide who will win the stupid culture war narrative.

    Musk has to actually deliver a product that works and services that people with voluntarily purchase. That causes him to live in a completely different world that the authoritarian left that consistently works to eliminate choice so as to prevent the Free American People from rejecting their offering. I knew years ago that this would cause Musk to steadily come our direction.

    Elon Musk points out that 'with Jack departing, the Twitter board collectively owns almost no shares.

    Elon Musk has a plan for changing Twitter's content moderation policies. It could scare away users and advertisers.

    Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has made a fortune from tech, but he’s never run a company quite like Twitter. He laid out his views on content moderation and free speech on Friday, with few specifics on the business, and people with experience in the field noticed the gaps in his plan.
