    @Jolly said in Elon Musk buys a big chunk of Twitter:

    Tucker had a suggestion in his monologue last night... People who believe in free speech should buy Twitter stock and then let Elon have their proxies.

    How much of Twitter's stock has Tucker bought?

    I ain't your Google Mommy.

    Just trying to save you from doing what Tucker tells you to do but does not do so himself. Consider waiting to see whether Tucker puts his own money where his mouth is.

      Maybe Twitter’s Board really wants to sell and is just looking for an outside advisor to rubber-stamp its foregone conclusion.

            He’s still fuming after Musk compared him to Justin Trudeau. This could really tip him over the edge.

                It’s a setup. My guess? He’s already got a new platform ready to roll out next month.

                      Yup. And as I posted earlier, Musk made an offer to buy that platform as well for $28.

                      Not $28 billion. $28 dollars.

                      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                          Really? He offered to buy Truth Social for $28? That’s an epic troll.

                            No..he really didn't. It was a jab at CNN+.

                            It has fewer subscribers than Truth Social.

                                    He is just looking to drive up the price, and then sell, making a big profit for himself.

                                    I just dont see him following through on buying Twitter.

                                        Just a thought...Is some of the screaming from the folks at Twitter from fear that it will become public how many voices were silenced and how actively the agenda was pursued within the company?

                                        “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

                                        Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

                                          As I posted earlier, the voices screaming about billionaires buying media companies are silent about Bezos, Bloomberg, et. al.

                                          The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
