Elon speaking live for the last 2 hours nearly..

"There appears and emphasize it appears. I'm not saying this is definitely the case. There appears to have been a double standard where Democrats were not censored, left causes were not censored, but right causes and Republicans were. And it was, and I think this is frankly obvious to anyone who uses Twitter without any extra exposure of Twitter files it was it was not even handed and and it's frankly the the behavior that is to be expected from an organization that is that is based in San Francisco which is far left so from their standpoint, it wouldn't seem like that they're being unfair from their standpoint, it's simply, uh, how they see the world, I mean.
I think Matt posted like political contributions of Twitter being over 99% Democrat, so. Well, what kind of viewpoint would you expect people to have then?"

Musk makes a demonstrably false statement, offers no evidence to support it, throws in a little plausible deniability to cover himself, then continues as if his lie is fact. What an absolute clown show.

He did, and that's just as irrelevant now as it was when he posted it.

You're not going to tell us again to be angry that Elon brought his kid to work are you?
 
While the lunatic fringe continues to defend the Twitter Files hoax, prominent conservatives are going public with their buyer's remorse.

“So far, I’m deeply underwhelmed,” Sebastian Gorka, a former Trump administration official turned right-wing radio host, said. His comments came after journalist Matt Taibbi released a lengthy Twitter thread detailing Musk’s touted findings, namely that Twitter executives themselves were at odds over whether to restrict the Hunter Biden reporting and that Democrats (and Republicans) filed moderation requests with the social media giant.

“We know the Dems in DC collude with the Dems in Palo Alto [Califonia]. Big Whop,” Gorka added.

But the right-wing host didn’t leave it to just a single post. He continued by doubling down when pressed by MAGA diehard followers who were convinced the “Twitter files” promoted by Musk were a smoking gun.

Responding to a Truth Social user claiming the Twitter company emails were “a clear violation of the 1st Amendment,” the radio host fired back: “Err no, it’s not the DNC asking a private company to censor has nothing to do with the First Amendment.”

The back and forth ended with Truth Social users accusing Gorka of being “deep state.” (The radio host failed to address questions on the matter sent to him by The Daily Beast on Friday night.)

Likewise, New York Post columnist Miranda Devine—one of the first right-wing reporters to begin writing about the laptop—told Fox News host Tucker Carlson it wasn’t the “smoking gun we’d hoped for.”

“I feel that Elon Musk has held back some material,” she then alleged, claiming sinister forces were perhaps controlling Musk after the Twitter chief took a meeting with Apple CEO Tim Cook earlier in the week. “In particular, there’s a tweet in which Matt Taibbi says he hasn’t seen any evidence that law enforcement specifically warned off Twitter from our story. But that’s just not correct.”

Others echoed similar sentiment on the political right.

“Twitter files [are] underwhelming so far. Just revealing what we already knew: Twitter was staffed by democrats who did the bidding of Democrats,” Free Beacon reporter Joe Simonson wrote.

Far-right Twitter rival Gab went a step further by attacking Musk. “Elon dropped this total nothingburger Hunter Biden story, which revealed nothing new whatsoever beyond what we have all known for years now,” the company wrote on Telegram, “to distract from the fact that he suspended the biggest cultural superstar of a generation for going on a podcast to say he loves everyone.”

That reads like Alex Jones selling his wonder pills. "now I'm not saying you'll defiantly lose weight but it appears people who take these lose more weight than those who don't.

This a man with access to everything and that is the best he could come up with. Its not a nothing burger, its a nothing night out, its a stay at home sat in the dark and going to bed hungry.

What has that got to do with proof of anything?

Aren't you the guy who pretends he's not a fanboi?

Yesterday I finished 7 jobs.

Is that a slow day or a long day? Without knowing whether my usual activity might be say 4 jobs, or 50 jobs, doing 7 means nothing.

Is there anything else really simple you need explaining to you?

5 dollars bet I can guess your answer/avoiding

The context is in the next tweet, used to take a month plus to remove that many. Maybe learn to read a tweet or 2.

Nope just because you don't understand the video doesn't mean someone else is wrong.

Like I said, if you want to have a good laugh and see how weak trump is, have a look around that video and see the events around it. I gave that video in particular to separate the smart from the not so smart. Which one are you?

I can spoon feed you the events of that video if you want? Do you need me to spoon feed you it?

So yes, trump literally says "it was no one else but russia that interfered to help me get elected"

And the "not trump fan Bois" will keep saying that it wasn't true when even their big guy who they don't support but can't stop bending over for, admits it and says "it couldn't be anyone else but Russia"
