Do you have any footage of him saying that or has that come from someone else?

Trump apparently says a lot of things that don't always turn out to be true.

Exactly. You didn't hear it from Trump. Why would Trump tell LBC or Times radio and not tell anyone else?

There was a Tommy Robinson account up yesterday. Apparently it was legitimate but I'm not certain.

Milo Yiannopolous was one of the first to be permanently banned, for critiquing an actors performance in the Ghostbusters film. They never let him back on.

The real reason they wanted him gone was because his voice was influential in getting Trump elected in 2016, so they had to stop him and people like him simply to try and stop Trump winning again.

Also just to point out the government wealth and personal wealth are very different things; as rich as Elon is... the UK spent 2x his entire fortune on Covid. . About 50% of Elon's entire net worth was spent on Furlough alone.

All twitter had to do was leave people alone. But the addiction of being in a powerful position took over and they couldn't help themselves. Tyrants who got it into their heads that they should control what is and isn't acceptable.

Madonna told us that she "had seriiously considered blowing up the Whitehouse"

Don't even think she was arrested for inciting terrorism.

She was fine to stay on twitter while people like Milo was silenced for critiquing an acting performance in Ghostbusters.

Something had to change, let's hope it has with Elon.

Probably not, but she got up on a podium in front of a large crowd of people and claimed that she had.

Musk will just be another Zuckerberg , he'll let all sorts of offensive and inappropriate stuff slip through with ZERO monitoring .

I wonder if people on Twitter will also get their accounts HACKED, like what happens on FACEBOOK all the time with no solution to solve the problem.

Well that's fine, being offended is better than being silenced as long as they're not actively calling for violence, it doesn't matter what words someone types on a screen.

the value of his tesla shares has dropped significantly, so my guess is that he wants to negotiate the sale price down to compensate or pull out completely

Elon Musk has had a video Chat
with Twitter Staff.

But he has still not said he is buying it.
